Appointment With Grace

I like the idea of prayer being, "An appointment with grace."  We make lots of appointments to keep our lives from becoming a mess.  We make an appointment to maintain the car, with the dentist and doctors, pay our taxes, meet with someone(s) to work out a problem.  If we avoid these appointments or don't schedule them, life will spiral downward.  So why not make an appointment with grace each day?  I know what happens when I skip this appointment.  May life gets more messy than it need be.  We tend to schedule appointments when they fit us the best, if we have a choice.  Why make an appointment with grace (prayer) when we know we will be dead tired or in conflict with something else that must be done at that time?  I make my first appointment with grace when I get out of bed.  I get up early enough so that I have no other appointments.  I am not much of a night person and afternoons I get sleepy unless I stay active.  Mornings work best for me.  When is your daily appointment with grace?
