Manna in the Morning

Tools to Create a Daily Quiet time

Dr. Stephen Olford, Christian writer and leader (Mar 1918 – Aug 2004), has helped thousands to begin a daily Quiet Time habit with a few simple suggestions.

  • Establish a definite place and time.
  • Have a good-sized Bible, whose print you do not have a strain to read.
  • Begin a prayer list or prayer cycle to work through each day of the week.
  • Have what Olford calls a quiet time notebook to capture the thoughts of each quiet time session, even if only in brief sentence form. They will be thoughts you will never find in a commentary, thoughts worth keeping.
