My Favorite Time of Day

Daily writing prompt
What’s your favorite time of day?

My favorite time of day is when the morning star welcomes the sunrise to enlighten, not just the sky, but also my heart. (2 Corinthians 4:6) Jesus is “the bright morning star” (Revelation 22:16) who welcomes me to experience and surrender to His presence because He is risen from the dead and living forever more.

Mornings are my favorite time of day because inspiring words flow as inner springs of hope and from joy deep within my heart. They wake me up to an ongoing awareness of Christ speaking and working within me. I love to listen to His voice and to post what I sense Him saying to me. These are words that came to me this morning:

Inner Springs of Hope

When things annoy
They’re a decoy
Distracting you
Away from joy.
Learn to deploy
Hope in your heart
So you can be
God’s envoy
And help people
To enjoy
Jesus’ presence.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
