Three Things: I Do Every Day

Many of us are creatures of habit - even if we don't realize it. I am sure there are certain things you do everyday. Things you do in a certain order, or at a certain time. Those daily habits you may not even think about. There's something comfortable about the repetition of some activities. Here are three things I do (pretty much) every day:

1) Make coffee: Seriously... First thing. Every single morning. Don't even try to talk to me until I have made and had at least a few sips of my first cup of coffee. Does this really come as a surprise to anyone who knows anything about me?

2) Spend some quiet time with Jesus: Right after I fix that cup of coffee. Just me and God having a little coffee talk over my Bible and devotionals. I can certainly tell a difference in how my day seems to go on the mornings I skip this!

3) Read: OK, again... if you know anything at all about me this is not surprising new. I read every chance I get. A day is not a day unless I get some reading done! And I can't go to sleep without reading at least a few pages. It's how I unwind and relax into sleep mode.
