Our day with our loved ones in Clovis, CA, started with the “invasion” of our cheerful grandkids into our big bedroom and into our double bed as the recurrent ritual morning by morning.

We miss those daily “awakenings”.  This refreshing world of laughter, enthusiasm, spontaneity, energy and funny whims belonging especially to the innocence of kids is a real gift of God.
Without knowing it themselves they certainly make “a joyful noise unto God”  (Psa. 66:1).

But my morning of refreshment usually started earlier.  I came to love the words:  “Morning by morning He awakens my ear to hear as those who are taught….”  (Isa. 50:4).  The kids we had to leave behind us in California, but the early awakening is still there.  Praise the Lord for that vestibule or lobby in His joyful presence in prayer and Bible reading every morning preparing for the daytime´s exciting exploits.

So my stay over there has not been the stay of a curious tourist but rather the seminar of a “stupid” learner.  I just listened to a leader from the Eastern Orthodox Church who felt that his church could learn from the “evangelicals” about their relationship to the Bible and their daily intimacy with the word of God which is not so common with his church members.  I think he was too kind.  It´s really the daily commitment to God´s word that is at stake with us too.

However, let the word from Isa. 50:4 be an encouragement and challenge to you and me today and every day!
