"It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep."
Psalms 127:2
One of the key takeaways here is that sleep is a gift from God. I think that we lose sleep worrying about things sometimes, and that isn't what God wants. He knows that things are sometimes going to be stressful or sad, but we don't have to exacerbate those emotions in order to be righteous. Instead, God wants us to learn how to manage our stress--how to let it go and trust him to handle the things that we can't handle.
Sleep is a blessing that God gives to us to be able to let go of a lot of the things that were running in the background during the day, and an opportunity for both our bodies and minds to get some rest. Often sleep helps us to feel better in the morning after taking time to recharge, even after the very worst days. Today, let's get some sleep and let God handle the things that we don't have any control over. Let's accept that blessing in our lives, and give thanks to God for it. :)
