Maximize your Mornings

I started following Inspired to Action last week and have been trying to follow Kat's advice to maximize mornings. Her idea is to wake up an hour before your kids so that you have time for personal worship and exercise. Every morning there is a new post to inspire your worship, exercise routine, and encourage you to raise your children for Jesus. Well, I decided that it is time for some discipline, people. Here is how it's been going:

Day 1: Worship, check. Exercise, 20 push-ups, 20 crunches, 20 squats.
Day 2: Worship, check. Exercise, nil (so sore; pathetic, I know).
Day 3: Worship, semi-check. Exercise, nil (won't even try to make up an excuse).
Day 4: Worship, check. Exercise, back to the push-up, crunch and squat routine (still only like 5 minutes of exercise).


Anyway, yesterday morning's post included a clip on living for eternity by Francis Chan ("What are you living for?").  Only four minutes long. Such a simple concept, but it made a big impact on me.
