What time is it?

It’s a new day…the hour hand has moved into Friday, and I don’t think I’m done with Thursday, yet.  The movement from day to day seems to blur each night when sleeping doesn't begin until after the new day has begun.  We are night-owls around here, but that doesn't work well for all of us all the time.  The sunlight sneaks into our lower level bedroom at its break and, though I can usually sleep through it, Jeff cannot.  

Dear God of day and night, we fill our waking hours to overflowing and we do not sleep as long as we need or want, but you are with us, protecting us in our weariness.  Help us to become better stewards of our own sleep habits.  Amen.
