I got up early one morning and rushed right into the day; I had so much to accomplish that I didn't have time to pray. Problems just tumbled about me, and heavier came each task.

He said, "But you didn't seek. " I tried to come into God's presence; I used all my keys at the lock. God gently and lovingly chided, "My child, you didn't knock. " I woke up early this morning, and paused before entering the day; I had so much to accomplish that I had to take time to pray. Amen
