I enjoy a nice nap every now and then. In fact, I enjoy sleeping late too.
And, I never really thought of sleeping as a spiritual experience, until it occurred to me one night, while I couldn’t get to sleep:
I’ve known some children who were afraid to go to sleep. They were afraid that something bad would happen when they weren’t watching.
When I give in to sleep, I’m giving up control. I’m trusting God. What could be more spiritual? I suppose that’s why Jesus was able to sleep in a boat in the storm!
Matthew 8:23-25
