For some reason, today was a "bleh" day. I find if I win the battles in the morning, whatever they may be, the rest of my day is great. Morning Devotions I'm working on spending time with God in the mornings. To meet with God before meeting whatever comes my way. I find I really need that. My approach to reading the Bible is just straight reading. I do think and read carefully, but I also don't have (or make) the time to sit there for an hour meditating on what I just read. There are other times when I do meditate / savor, but for my morning reading, I treat it like breakfast.
