Friend, live near to the cross, and you will not sleep. Work hard to impress yourself with a deep sense of the value of the place to which you are going. If you remember that you are going to heaven, you will not sleep on the road. If you think that hell is behind you, and the devil pursuing you, you will not loiter. Would the innocent sleep with the enemy in pursuit and the city of refuge before him? -C.H. Spurgeon

It should be noted that people should pray to be awakened so that they can embody these things written above. No average person can be as described above, for, we must be enabled to live this way. The Curse that struck all of Creation must be disassociated with the human spirit so as to even have a chance at being as described above.
Colossians 2:9-15 is the Answer.
I think Jesus was able to sleep because he trusted that his Father was in charge, so he had no reason to be concerned.
