A New Routine
(“Fill us with your
love every morning. Then we will sing and rejoice all our lives.”
Psalm 90:14)
How do you begin your day? We all have routines, and they can
be as varied as our different personalities. Those routines can change at
different points throughout our life as well. A high school student’s morning
may be far more hurried than a retired couple. The student swills a quick bowl
of cereal and rushes out the door to catch the bus in time, while the retirees
my enjoy the leisure of a quiet morning, slowly sipping morning coffee and
reading a favorite book. The executive takes time to think through an important
meeting and a stay-at-home parent checks the calendar for each child’s
activities. For most of us, the routine is a well-worn path every morning.
