Daily Spiritual Startups: Meditations to Begin Every Morning

Is there any quality of a friend more valuable than loyalty?

God's justice promotes fear in the unrighteous.  How should the believer react to His Divine Goodness?

Jesus is our mediator between God and Man.  As BOTH God AND man, He is the perfect advocate for us to the Father.

Our Lord is "King of Kings and Lord of Lords."  What does that mean for us?

What does God want most from us?  The scriptures tell us that FAITH is His most desired virtue.

Are you "religious" or are you "spiritual?"  The difference is profound!

Do we consider ourselves to be wise?  Interestingly, the beginning of wisdom is often recognizing a lack of wisdom in ones self.

All of us love someone, but God loves so completely that He IS love.

When David say, "Yeah thought I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, Thou are with me," he speaks of the great comfort found in God's presence.  To know He is everywhere is to know that we will never be alone.

What a comfort we have in knowing that our God is powerful enough to handle any problem that comes our way.

When we are faced with uncertainty, there is great comfort in knowing that we have One to rely upon who knows all things!

Why can we rely upon God’s promises for today and for tomorrow? Because He is the author of time.

The Bible tells us we must always be ready for our Lord's return.  Are we?  Do we think about it every day?

What kind of trail are we leaving for others to follow?  If is discernible?  Is it good?

What sensations do you associate with "home?"  We all have special things about our home that make it a place of safety and belonging.  The Lord wants us to see heaven as home.  Do we?

We can all be tempted to “believe our own press.” Therefore, we must always guard against pride and turn to the Lord in Humility.

Lasting security is hard to find in this world.  Jesus tells us where and how we can invest for tomorrow with a guarantee that can never be changed.

It can be difficult to stay strong in our present world.  We all need sources of strength.  Wouldn't it be nice if God were right before us and we could embrace Him?  He has given us the next best thing!

Is your life all planned out?  Do you know exactly how YOU plan to accomplish your goals?  Where is the FAITH if we can accomplish everything on our own?

Where does self-esteem come from?  How do we find it?   The Bible has a lot to say about our worth and how we should view ourselves.

Do we ever, "Miss the forest for the trees?"  Sometimes our blessings can be the hardest things to recognize.

Life is always going to have it's shadows.  Thank the Lord we have a Shepherd!

Sometimes the hardest person to love is ourselves.  Why would the Lord, who knows our every thought and secret, want us?

Have you ever argued over who would pay the bill?  Christ has paid our debt and our only response should be the expression of a grateful and obedient heart.

Honest believers are acutely aware of their weaknesses.  Although we try to live uprightly before the Lord, we sometimes fall short.  How can God use us in spite of our weaknesses?
