Do you think sleep is truly a lazy man's best friend as they claim?
Have you ever wondered the mystery sorrounding sleep? have you ever taken out time to ponder on the fact about what makes some persons to die during sleep?
To you, what does sleep really mean? is it just a form of bodily recuperation, relaxation or is it truly a NEAR Death experience like some claim?
So are you getting enough sleep? How much is really enough or for how long should an average person sleep per day without being called a lazy bone?
Do you really enjoy sleep? if yes how much do you get?
But there are those workaholics/'cashmaniacs' with the view that sleep in the real sense of it belongs to the lazy man who eventually ends up begging for his daily bread!
Well, i'm also aware that there are those who hold strong opinion that sleep is a Neccessity not a luxury - atleast the body is no stone!
I have also encountered those who hold adamantly that you cannot consider sleep as a lazy man's best friend because sleep is highly medicinal and that our bodies usually recovers from certain fatigue/ illnesses whenever we sleep and that even the lack of it can be highly detrimental to the body.
For those who claim that it is a near death experience, avoidance of sleep was their option.Simply to avoid such NEAR death situation.well they concluded that only those who are ready to die should get so much sleep in order to get used to deathlike situations before hand .
Do you believe this? I dont think I do. But this school further stressed the fact that since most evil attacks against men results from sleep periods, why should they sleep at all or for too long? countless examples of persons that have woken up mad ,paralysed ,e.t.c talkless of those found cold dead in the morning were part of what they pointed out in support of their notion.
Now, my questions are:
1. When you wake up in the mornings what is the first thing that you do?
2.Do you just rush into the bathroom ,clean up and get ready for the day's job?
3.Or are you one of those greatful hearts that the light of day had saved from dream attacks / nightmare?
4.Perhaps you are one of those who usually think or relunctantly get up from bed in the mornings saying '' Oh Boy,morning is here so soon..., how long was my sleep?''
5.Or your'first duty is to thank papa GOD for making you see the light of day again despite all the scheme and plans of the enemy throughout the night - during your sleep.
6.Or you are the type that says "O how i wish i'm not going to that workplace again today, or men, that Lecturer/course today is real ....S@%y`+t!.
What kind of thoughts flood your heart when you wake up in the mornings?.
Are you being grateful each day for being alive?For the Gift of life?
But then what if you didn't wake up at all?
Whichever catergory as mentioned above that you fall into, yet we are still expected to give thanks to God.
So do you still love sleeepiiiing???
Shalom!
