Hello Monday!

It's Monday morning.  It is 5:00 AM.  My husband wakes me.  I have 2 choices.  I can either think about how tired I feel and how soft the bed is, or I can set my mind on praising God. 
First words are so very important.  They will tell exactly what is in the heart of a person.  I am fascinated with the life of Smith Wigglesworth.  He was a remarkable man.  I recently read this:
Lester Sumrall asked, 'How do you get up in the morning?' Wigglesworth said, "I jump out of bed! I dance before the Lord for at least 10 to 12 minutes -- high-speed dancing. I jump up and down and run around my room telling God how great He is, how wonderful He is, how glad I am to be associated with Him and to be His child." - Pioneers of Faith, pg 165

This little glimpse into his life speaks volumes.  Why don't we witness what all He did?  It starts with perspective.  From the moment we wake, we make a choice.
