Morning Movement: Stretching And Bowing to the Only ONE Who Can Keep Me From Crashing and Burning...

Not every day is made for big, fat-burning movements, but every single day is made to bow, opening our hands and hearts to be led in prayer and service to God. Let's stretch and talk about the best way to keep ourselves from crashing and burning!

"It is time that you experience the power of Spirit-led prayer in your life. Remember that the point of prayer is to get the heart back into its true orbit, to center on God (Matthew 6:9). The heart’s true orbit is to worship, glorify, and center on God. That’s what the purpose of prayer is. If the moon were to leave its true orbit, it would crash and burn. And if the heart leaves its true orbit of centering everything on God, the same thing happens, only spiritually and cosmically, we crash, and we burn. The point of prayer is to make God central again." Professor Scott Maze, Liberty University

Ps. Have you ever stopped to consider how similar our beloved, old hymn "Great is Thy Faithfulness" and our new favorite "Goodness of God" are? Take the time this morning to take in the truth of these wonderful songs and think deeply about the fullness and love of God!

"Summer and winter and springtime and harvest

Sun, moon and stars in their courses above

Join with all nature in manifold witness

To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love

Great is Thy faithfulness

Great is Thy faithfulness

Morning by morning new mercies I see

All I have needed Thy hand hath provided

Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me"

"I love You, Lord

For Your mercy never fails me

All my days, I've been held in Your hands

From the moment that I wake up

Until I lay my head

Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

'Cause all my life You have been faithful

And all my life You have been so, so good

With every breath that I am able

Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God"
