George Mueller used to say, “It is my first business every morning to make sure that my heart is happy in GOD.” And if you think George Mueller had no problems that made it hard for him to be happy, keep in mind that he was responsible every day for feeding ten thousand orphans who lived in the homes he established in Bristol, England, beginning in 1836.
Whenever I read Mueller’s statement, I’m fascinated. My first thought when I wake up is usually not about GOD, but “What do I have to do today?” Or else I’m squinting at the clock as I ask myself, “Is it really time to get up?”
We need to start our day with GOD and His happiness in our hearts!
