Excessive sleep causes the downfall of many good plans. You can set the clock to get up early and pray, but your flesh is not going to help you get up in the morning. Your body will nearly always beg for more sleep.


Don’t let your flesh rob you of time with God. Aim for the higher goal, and wake up with your alarm to enjoy the best minutes of your day.





1 Corinthians 9:26-27 ~ (KJV)
I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

Idle time is of the Devil, too, milady, beck.
Lying in bed is being quite idle, I'd say. The Lord leads, follow Him, in,Spirit and Truth, but, yeah, a lot of lazy, worthless no-good happens when we don't move from a position of comfort, like lying in bed, and, God wants us to be moving, moving, moving, just like all dem animals jamming to da beat in Madagascar 2 :)

Green , the video absolutely had me rolling to the point I stood up in my living room and danced with the video!! beck , you go girl! Great post! I'm putting my hiking boots on and getting up off his couch! Beautiful morning.. We should really think about all getting together in the future and do something fun , make t-shirts with Christian chat.com so people know that online friendships can and do happen.. I'd do that in a heart beat.. Meet at the dunes and buggy ride.. I think they rent then there.. Meet for a hike.. Go ride go carts in Norman .. Do the color run , check it out and don't miss the video they have...

Take it from an insomniac: God is good, so is sleep.

Amen, Ritter... *sigh*

I'm beginning to fully appreciate sleep now and why God COMMANDS us to rest. It affects so much ...

The Lord leads . I only have one hope in life and it is in Him, my Saviour and Lord, King Jesus, who speaks all things, I hope and pray, that I'm led by Him to say, and, things I hope to do, pOw :)

Yrah, regards to song, I never saw mad. 2 , but mad. one was good, I really like ice age , good little laughs and messages throughout :)

I probably have the worlds worst sleep cycle. I sleep like 5ish hours from 5-10am then a nap from like 4-5pm, then another nap from like 10-midnight...lol Part of it is insomnia and another part is just not having any other real schedule right now. Oh and I occasionally dose off for 10-15 minute power naps...haha. Sleep is a precious gift though, I dont know what i would do without it.
