Late night thoughts.

The other day I couldn't help wonder why the Lord created us beings that sleep close to half a day during the night. So I got to thinking about the logical reasons for sleeping. There is the obvious rest and rejuvenation that through sleep we recieve. But thinking about this deeper I realized that there is no need for rejuvenation from sleep if the Lord didn't want us to experience that. So that's definitely a benefit but not the reason why we sleep. Then I came upon the idea that going to sleep at night is like a second chance. We go through our days and good or bad, sleep let's us start anew every single day. And this works perfectly for our existence. To give the glory to the Lord. Some days we mess up, but the great thing is each day ends. And with the end of each day we can go to our beds and rest, knowing that come the next day we can try again. We can fix the mistakes we made beforehand. I love this continuous second chance we recieve daily, and quite frankly it's really more often than just daily. But let's not take these second chances for granted, we were given them so that we would actually try to better ourselves. And we should go about each day doing just that.
