::YAWN:: I am not a morning person! Just thinking about waking up early makes me sleepy. Of course, it might help if I went to bed earlier at night, but I still can't promise my best face forward.
But this woman! She gets out of bed early to feed her family! And it's not cereal and milk, she is cooking food for them. And not just her family, she makes sure that her hired help is fed, too.
Why?
Because in the scheme of things, from first to last, she has her priorities straight. God, family, others, self.
In getting out of bed before dawn, she is putting her own comfort last, her family comes first.
Maybe the rich smell of coffee brewing unglues her eyeballs.
Maybe humming "I Love You Lord" starts her voice box.
But, one thing is for sure, the aroma of food cooking is what brings her family pattering to the table to face the day. She knows that their physical strength comes from the foods that she prepares for them, and their Spiritual Strength comes from God above.
Good Morning.
