James 1:19 tells us that we should "be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger..." These are the thoughts God places on my heart.

How do you set the agenda for your day each morning? I am not talking about work or errands. I am talking about your spiritual day. Do you pray each morning and ask God to fill your day? Do you ask for a scripture passage to start the day? How do you decide what is most important to you that day? Most of us have a problem with time in the morning but what are you doing instead of praying? Is that going to do anything for your eternal life? What are your priorities? I challenge you to rise a few minutes earlier each morning and spend some time talking to God and then, most importantly, listen to his response to you. Ask him for a scripture that will set the tone for your day. Give it a week and see if it doesn't improve your life. It is the best way to get a new and everlasting habit going. I just discovered that the "What's in Your Wallet" folks are actually offering a credit card that supports the Pro-Life movement. How awesome is that? Take a look at the offer (Pro Life Card). The Crossroads ministry deserves our support and kudos to Capital One Bank for offering this blessed (and painless) opportunity.
