I usually go to bed between 9pm and 10pm. I tell myself that there is nothing on television that my VCR cannot tape or that I cannot view online. My body actually rejoices when I do achieve that goal because I am a morning person. I would rather do PBS (personal bible study), pray and exercise before work, before 545am than have to exercise beyond an hour when I return from work. Nevertheless, God always wakes me up early to talk so I might as well go to bed early right. Can you imagine telling God, "I need five more minutes." So be good to your body and give it the 8 hours of sleep that it craves each night. You and your body will appreciate it.
the Psalmist says...
Psalm 132:14 This [is] my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
Abba, please help me appreciate the temple that You have given me. God I want to get 8 hours of sleep a night. God please help me realize how much rest my body actually needs at night. God wrap me under the shadow of Your wings each night. In Jesus' name, amen.
