I woke up this morning with my husband singing to me the song, "sleeping the night away". I'm not sure it is even a real song. Nevertheless I literally slept the night away. I thought I would lay down for a little nap and the next thing I knew he woke me up to tell me to come to bed. I guess I got there because that's where I woke up this morning.
Has this ever happened to you? Do you ever wonder why you need so much sleep. I mean I'm the kinda person that if my body will go along with me, we will just skip sleep. Right? I mean after all there are so many things to do, places to go and people to meet. As a matter of fact Black Friday I argue with my body and make deals with it and tell it that it can sleep Saturday afternoon. Who does that? Am I all alone out here?

1 Corinthians 15:51 (KJV)
“Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,”
“Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,”
God is so gracious He gives us sweet sleep.
"In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat-- for he grants sleep to those he loves." Psalm 127:2 (NIV)
The day seems totally different after a good nights sleep. Problems don't seem so big after a good nights sleep. When you are sick or just fighting a cold sometimes a good nights sleep will be just what you need to send that virus or germ packing. God designed our bodies with everything we need to live a long and healthy life.
Let's just take a little time and praise Him for all He has done for us. Praise Him for the things you can see and acknowledge Him for the things you don't see or notice. Every organ in your body is working right now and you can't tell until they don't. So don't wait until something isn't working to talk with Him. Talk to Him now.
