Get Some Sleep


Arianna Huffington, President and Editor in Chief of Huffington Post Media Group,  skipped sleep to work. One day she fainted from exhaustion, bashing her head on a desk and breaking her cheekbone. Now Arianna makes sleep a priority, and she says that helps her make better business decisions. "Even when I have to face challenges and problems, it makes all the difference in the world if I've had a good night's sleep.”

No matter who you are, you’re not superman or wonder woman. And you’re not God. In fact, God didn’t make you a 24/7 machine. He made you 16/6.  By that I mean, you were built to sleep 8 hours a day--and work 6 days a week. That’s why we have night. That’s why He invented Sabbath.

Jesus said it this way: “Come to me all you who are weary and burdened. I will give you rest.”  

Take time for solitude. Take time to think. Take time to sleep. Take time for rest and recreation.
