       When we first wake up in the morning and get out of bed, I would recommend that you say at least a short prayer, a greeting to God, if you will, to start the day. In the most basic form this is a way we can put God first and set our day in the right direction. Remember, in verse 5 of Matthew 6 here, Jesus said “when you pray,” not “if you pray.” We should always have prayer on our minds, and not every prayer we do has to be in a formal formula or setting. Praying is to be done all the time, really. Personally, I like to call it being in continual or constant conversation with God. However, that’s not our focus for today; that discussion is for another time. I would also suggest and highly recommend that you spend a significant amount of time, say at least five minutes, praying before you go to work. This again is putting God first. Plus, I believe you will see your day flowing smoother and on a more level ground because you’ve prayed and asked for God to help you with your day. You’ve spend time praising and thanking him. You’ve made your fellowship time with him a priority for the day. And I think God honors that.
