My morning program [View all]

All this is free on the internet. First, Daily Reflections:

Then I say a prayer, "Lord, thanks for this day. I pray You will keep me sober and healthy, that You will strengthen and guide me, and help me to peacefully enjoy this day. I love You and thank You, Amen."

Then, Hazelden's Twenty Four Hours a Day:

Then, what the Good Old-timers used, The Upper Room:
http://devotional.upperroom.org

Followed by a period of mediation planning my day (sometimes I check the weather first).

Takes about 15 minutes. I did it on my phone when I was hospitalized.
