I have constantly declared myself as definitely not a morning person. You couldn't get me up early to do anything but go to work anything else was out of the question. My best friend constantly told me get up earlier you'll like. I would try & fail. Tried praying only to fall asleep. I would "sleep in" only to be rushing out the door, no breakfast, dinner not prepared & still late for work.
Last year my church Beebe Memorial Cathedral (experiencebmc.org) had 50 days of prayer. We had to get up at 7am daily. Boy was I so not into this. Nevertheless hubby & I got up each morning to pray with our church. It turned out to be a fantastic experience. But I also learned that when I wake up earlier I feel better, refreshed!
So my only New Years resolution was to keep it up. So now I get up 6:45 daily. I get so much done. I stretch, have quiet time, pray & read my bible. Once I'm done with that I go prepare breakfast & dinner. I get to work earlier now instead of rushing. I feel more level headed...clear! So for all you folks that just cant stand early mornings try it & see how much better, accomplished and prepared you feel.
