Wake Up Sleeper

Well, last night was pretty rough. But I ended up getting nearly 10 hours of sleep with the help of medications. Anytime my body crashes it’s like recovering from some internal seizure. My entire body just aches all over and demands rest to recoup. Once I got that much needed rest I felt like a brand new person.
For the most part I feel back on track. This cold front moving in is doing me no favors. But, I’m back to eating wisely and living with a recovery mindset. Meaning I’m doing all I can while trusting God to do what I can’t. Overall, this has been a pretty good day.
God once again has my full attention. I find my degree of felt brokenness is always linked to my degree of openness. Sadly we often try to hit spiritual cruise control the moment we feel we have things under control. So, for the sake of drawing me closer to God I’m grateful for the awakening pain.
“This is why it is said: “Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.” Ephesians 5:14
