Good morning everyone and welcome back to another mornings with the masters.

We're to vote ourselves to the Lord daily with you.

Today's going to be a little bit different.

If you recall maybe a few weeks to a month ago, I did an episode where I just felt this prompting to

pray and that resonated with a lot of you which is really sweet this one's

gonna be a little bit different but I just feel this kind of prompting or

stirring just to open up and talk about something.

Yeah, so hopefully this is from God and of course I pray if it's not then it won't take root in your heart because we only want his word to be made known in his word to take root in our

heart. As I walked into our little film area and I flipped on the light, I flipped on the microphone, I flipped on the camera, I flipped on the light I flipped on the microphone. I flipped on the camera. I pressed record and I sat down

I just was like so thankful for this routine because transparently doing this for this is our the end of our fourth year

we're like 1400 episodes in around that and I'm so thankful for the discipline and I just wanted to talk for a moment about our daily disciplines and our need for consistency and our need for consistency and our need for

need for routines.

And if you recall what we talked about,

I think yesterday the day before,

on New Morning Mercies,

the author was talking about how he just felt like he had his mind

opened up when he started understanding that theology was going to impact his life so deeply that it changes the way he acts,

changes the way he talks, and even changes the way he thinks.

And so I just wanted to remind you and me that these daily devotional, your daily prayer time,

your morning routine, your church rhythm, you whatever it is it's not a box to check off the list it's not just

something that you do and then you move on it's something that you do and it changes you. And I know you all know that, but are we living like that? Or are we just going through the motions? Just like what we talked about a few days ago is like, wow, the theology isn't just like biblical information it's theology's

is biblical transformation I love that and I just want us to remind ourselves that there's a purpose to why we do what we do daily.
