I joined the 5 O'Clock Club a couple of years ago. And although I get off track from time to time the new year is a great time to start it back up.
All I know is starting my day out spending that time with God and in his word makes my day go so much more smoothly. It gives me that time I need to read my Bible, do a short devotion and then catch up on some reading.
I started the "club" because Matthew was waking up early and usually before or during my cherished time alone with God.
I don't know about you, but I need that time to praise him, thank him and study his word. Once I "joined the club" my body adjusted to the time(not that it needed much adjusting.....I am a morning person)and I have been doing it since. Well, almost. I slack from time to time, like I said and allow myself to sleep in. But at the beginning of the new year I try my best to get back into the routine.
I didn't make it up at 5 this morning so tomorrow is my start date. So who is in???? Go ahead get the coffee pot ready tonight and join me.
Please leave a comment or send me an email to let me know if you do.
Just remember every new habit takes about two weeks to really set in and feel normal.
5 O'Clock Club anyone???

I love this! What a great reminder for the start of a new year. I have not been good about being consistent with my quiet times lately and feel so much better when I start my day in the word! I want to commit to this with you. Thanks for sharing, Tasha!

Well,I normally get up at 5:30,but I think thirty extra minutes will be beneficial,so I will join you(I think you get up even earlier though which I will not do:)!
Do you have a set study you are doing? I would like to get started but probably will need something concrete to complete/read/a plan to keep me on track.
I am so excited you are going to join the "club"!! I don't have a set plan in place for club time. I am reading a devotion book daily and then reading the book Eyes Wide Open. A plan would be a great idea. Maybe a book for all to read,follow along with and questions to answer regarding each chapter in the book. Now there is a thought!
