Morning, Afternoon, Evening or Nighttime?

I am a morning person.  I never would have dreamed I'd turn out this way, but here I am.  41 years old and I love to get up early in the morning!  I guess there is something about getting older that changes you.  The thing is, I'm much more productive in the mornings.  I can get more done between 6 and 10 am than I can the rest of the day most days!  Once my foot...and then eventually my prosthetic foot...hits the floor and I have a couple of sips of coffee, it's ON!  If you want me to do something and be productive, see me in the morning.

I recently tried to have an in-depth, face-to-face, heart-to-heart conversation at nighttime.  It didn't work.  I couldn't do it.  I was so tired and weary, I couldn't put two thoughts together!  All I could think about was putting on my PJ's, grabbing my Kindle & crawling under the covers.  But the next morning, I was good to go.  I could concentrate, I was focused, and I was able to communicate very efficiently exactly what I needed to say.  And then some.  :-)

Are you a morning person like me or are you more of a night owl?  One thing I know...God is both!  He is available nighttime, morning time, daytime, ALL THE TIME!  And I'm so grateful, because there are times when I wake up in the middle of the night (more often than not, really.  I think this, too, has something to do with getting older!)...and I'm so glad He's available at 3am.  And He's available when I start my mornings at 6am, and He's available throughout the day, and before I go to bed (I wont' tell you how early that is!!).  He's available for the morning person and the night owl.  He's available in the afternoons and in the evening.  He's on call 24/7, 365 days a year.  All we have to do is look for Him.
