“So far today, Lord, I’ve done all right. I haven’t gossiped; I haven’t lost my temper; I haven’t been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish, or over-indulgent. I’m very thankful for that. But in a few minutes, Lord, I’m going to get out of bed. And from then on, I’m going to need a lot of help. Amen.”

Ever prayed a prayer like that? We know temptation is coming because it does every day. If we don’t start things out with Lord, it can be a very difficult day. Make sure you take a breath and invite Him to take the journey with you.
