After All, Who Can You Call at 3:00 A.M.

who won't either kill you for it or be utterly incoherent or semi-somnolent? Except of course for God Himself who is awake and waiting. He waits on us in every hour in every moment of every day. He waits for us to turn to Him and He gives us the opportunity to praise Him.

He is awake when I am awake. He watches while I sleep. He is the comfort of sleep and the love of family. He is the good of all that is good. Sometimes we forget that. In loving our spouses and our families, we forget that is God that makes each moment possible. God is the ground of love. Without Him there is no love, there is no pleasure, there is no good.

It is good, regardless of the circumstances to wait upon the Lord.
