SLEEP

Why, in our American culture, with comfy beds - great cars - all the modern conveniences - access to all the calories we could ever want - full blessing on our lives - with all that, why can't we go to sleep at night?

Because you can wake up tired in America, throw down a high energy bar/drink, and then take something to help you go to sleep at night - and then repeat that process the next day.

Why can't we sleep?

We aren't laying down our anxieties.  We're gnawing our teeth at night about things God is already involved in.

Don't be anxious.  About anything.  Nothing.  Then come to God in prayer with listening and trust.  Then go to sleep with an assurance that God is there - that He's working.  He isn't sleeping.

'He who watches over you will neither slumber nor sleep.'  (Psalm 121:4)

'So sleep well, My sons and daughters,' He says.  'You're in the palm of My hand.  No power of the enemy can snatch you away.'

Sleep well.

And be blessed.
