Early morning prayer is a time that is very special to me.  I love the quiet and the solitude I find in the very early hours of the morning. Jesus spent many early mornings in solitude praying to our heavenly Father before the sun rose.  And our great teacher and savior has taught us why and how to pray.  We pray in thankfulness and with gratitude for God's grace, in worship and honor, in petition for ourselves and in intercession for others, and for help and guidance.
