How we begin the morning has a way of coloring the whole day. Before the phone, before the news, before the list — there is a small, quiet window that belongs to you and to God.
“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” — Romans 12:2
Renewing the mind is not a grand project. It is a daily returning. Here is a gentle rhythm you can keep in ten minutes.
Still yourself
“Be still, and know that I am God…” — Psalm 46:10
Before words, simply be quiet for a moment. Let the noise settle.
Receive the morning as new
“It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.” — Lamentations 3:22–23
Set your thoughts
“…whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.” — Philippians 4:8
Choose what you will dwell on before the day chooses for you.
Carry one line with you
Pick a single verse and let it be your companion until evening. A renewed mind is built one morning at a time.
Our devotionals As a Woman Thinketh and As a Man Thinketh were made for mornings like these — thirty days of Scripture, reflection, and quiet.
