i need more sleep ...

that's what my Bible study homework told me taught me this morning! i've become fasinated that God never sleeps.He is a practical God,who is ALWAYS on time. lets face it. i'm always busy it seems, and time is precious and i hate drama,so i love that He is practical and timely, and that i'm important to Him. i love sleep, and really think God deserves some, yet i'm so very thankful He chooses to stay awake and watch over me!

we joke in our house about the way my brother used to say,"the Bible say share". well, yes it does, but not in the way he wanted us to, or at least that's my view on it as the baby of the family : ) but today, i realized that the Bible does in fact say "sleep". and why? because He loves us. that's all in the same verse. don't believe me ... here ya go ...
psalm 127:2
"In vain you get up early and stay up late, eating food earned by hard work; certainly He gives sleep to the one He loves." HCS Bible

"It is no use for you to get up early and stay up late, working for a living. The Lord gives sleep to those He loves."  NCV Bible

isn't that wonderful?! HE gives us sleep because HE loves us, and knows that helps us in our lives. yet HE never sleeps, and is ALWAYS there.

and i close with this .....

"And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without HIS notice, is it possible that an empire can rise without HIS aide?" Benjamin Franklin

hoping that your week and hair have a wonderful week! i have some catching up to do from the weekend here at brittsbusydays! i can't wait to share one tiny tid bit!

See ya tomorrow.... Britt
