It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to the Most High. It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning, your faithfulness in the evening.

Psalm 92:1-2

Our hearts were designed by God, for God, and we were made to be connected to Him. We were made to praise Him and to seek His wisdom in all things. But most of us hit the floor in the morning focused on our day, rather than on God. When we start our day without connecting to our Creator, we end up filling our hearts and minds with a thousand other things that vie for our attention. And when we’re not plugged into God’s heart, we miss out on God’s power. We end up stressed, anxious, and irritable. 
Setting your heart on God rewires your thoughts. It changes the way you think, the way you speak, and the way you interact with others. It moves you from self-focused to God-focused, which leads to true peace and unimaginable joy. It makes you humble, patient, positive, and kind. But these gifts from the Holy Spirit require you to plug into Him, to make room in your heart where too many things compete for space. Even good things can become bad things, if they keep you from connecting with Jesus. 
What things distract you and clutter your heart? What do you need to set aside in order make room for daily thankfulness to God? He doesn’t want long, fancy prayers. He just desires more of you. So make room in your life for more of Him. Start and end your day with Jesus. When you’re plugged into His heart and experience His power, will become humble, patient. positive, and kind. Your heart and your life will be transformed! You are loved!
