Within my crazy, sometimes over scheduled life, I don't always find time to just sit and listen to God. But last night I got to spend a lot of time listening, praying, and in His Word. I went to bed at 12, and laid in bed, tossing and turning, trying to get to sleep. I personally believe when you cannot fall asleep at night, that is God wanting you to spend some time talking to Him. So about 1:30 am, I decided to grab my Bible and head to the prayer room. Although it was 1:30, I was not tired at all, and God really revealed a lot to me in the hour I was there. It's funny how he works, even at 1:30 in the morning. When reading the Bible, I sometimes feel overwhelmed, not knowing what I should read. I opened my Bible to Matthew 27-the story of the crucifixion and read that. Reading that reminded me of the sacrifice of Jesus and how I need to sacrifice things in my life in order to follow Him. After the prayer room, I went back to my room and tried to go to bed, but nope, God wanted a little bit more of my time. So I got out of my bed again, and went and sat on a couch in the stud and wrote this. I got back to my room at 3:30, fell asleep at 4:30, and woke up at 8. Let's just say I'm a little tired, but who cares. I got to spend an amazing night with my Savior, and He rocked my world last night. Sleeping is overrated, right? ;)
With Blessings,
Heather
