The Twist of Faith When asked about the secret to getting up in the morning, many people respond that they set their alarm for the same time each day. They wake up even earlier than the day before, but never earlier than scheduled. This is a very effective way to be stuck in a rut. If you find yourself always getting up at the same time, it’s a sign you need to take some time for daily spiritual reflection. My daily meditation is a personal journey through the Psalms, which I enjoy because of their deep spiritual message. Some people would call them “songs” or “poetry,” while others might be offended to even think of them as such. However, I view them more like a personal journal I write each morning and which gives me comfort through adversity. Here are just some of the ideas I ponder while meditating. I find I have very specific questions each day that I can’t help but answer: What Did I Learn? Is there a situation in my life that I need to forgive myself for? What did I accomplish during the day? Did I miss an opportunity to improve my work ethic? Was I patient? Was I patient with someone else? Did I treat myself with respect? Did I show kindness to another person today? Why am I grateful for something I am currently going through? Am I currently enjoying something that is good for me? Am I going through something that isn’t good for me? Am I being mindful? Did I make a big deal of something small? Did I cause or allow someone else to make a big deal of something small? Was my last action helpful? Did I treat someone else like a child? What did I accomplish today? Did I speak to others with kindness and respect today? How was I perceived by others today? Was I treated with kindness and respect today? Did I do or say something today that will harm me or another person? Am I being mindful? Did I do something today that will be noticed by others? What is the best decision I could have made today? Am I happy with the decision I made today? Did I make a point to treat myself well today? Was I kind and gracious today? Did I show kindness and respect to others today? Am I going through something that isn’t good for me? Did I treat myself like a child today? What did I accomplish today? Did I speak to others with kindness and respect today?
