Sleepless nights

I heard a song yesterday and one of the lines was that maybe all the sleepless nights were so that we could get closer to knowing who God is. I know that when I can't sleep, my thoughts usually end up drifting eventually to Him. Weather I'm praying, or just thinking about stuff in my life, I end up with Him.

There are people who say they don't believe, or they believe "in something", or they're just not sure. I think that much of the time intelligence gets in the way. After all, it takes the faith of an innocent child.

I went to bed tonight, thinking I would just drift off to sleep, I was so tired. But then I started praying. And that led to praying for my family. And that led to thinking about things that have happened and how much all of us are missing because we're not together. And now here I am, wide awake, typing instead of dreaming.

I cherish my sleepless nights. Because it ends up being intimacy with God. But right now I wish I was sleeping.
