You want peace... but you won't give God your mornings. You keep asking God for peace. Clarity . Focus. Strength. But your mornings belong to your phone, not His presence. Here are 5 ruthless truths to take your mornings back: 1. You can't expect God to guide your day if you ignore Him at the start. You rush past the altar, and wonder why your day feels empty. The peace you're praying for is buried under your distractions. "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." Matthew 6:33 But if you don't seek Him first, what are you really building your day on? 2. Your phone isn't just a distraction... it's a thief. It steals your focus. Your stillness. Your reverence. You're not just late to the secret place. You're starving before the day begins. "Be still and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10 And if you never get still, how will you ever truly know Him? 3. You say you love God, but your calendar doesn't show it. Love without time is just talk. You don't "find time" for what matters, you fight for it. "Very early in the morning... Jesus went off to a solitary place, where He prayed." Mark 1:35 If Jesus prioritized it, what excuse do you have? 4. Peace doesn't come from sleep. It comes from surrender. You can sleep in and still wake up anxious. Because peace isn't a nap, it's a Person. "You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in You." Isaiah 26:3 So what are you fixing your mind on first? 5. Stop waiting to "feel ready." Build a morning altar anyway. Your flesh won't ever want to pray. Kill the excuses. Get up. Show up. "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled." Matthew 5:6 But hunger only grows when you start feeding it.
