When Sleep Evades You

When do you have your creative juices flowing?  Here it is, a little after 4:30 a.m. and I could not sleep any longer.  I could get ready and go to work, but its Saturday and being in a hotel room and not being able to go back to sleep made me begin to dream.

Some of my best ideas pop into my head at this hour and some of my quiet times with the Lord are at the same time.

I could lay in the bed and toss and turn but then everyone would be awake and that is not fair.  I come to the computer to check out the morning mail, find the news, and have some quiet time.

So I ask you, what do you do when sleep evades you?   Are you a morning person who is wide awake when your eyes open or someone who can sleep until noon and has to have two cups of coffee before your can think about anything?    Sometimes, I wish I could sleep longer and envy those who sleep long hours but that is not how the Lord wired me.

So here I sit typing and getting the dreams that have haunted me during the night to the forefront.  They go down on a list until I take the time to develop them more fully.  Do you have ideas that come to mind?  At any hour?    Never let them fade into forever but instead start a list of those ideas and check them out from time to time.

You never know if the next big idea is in your dreams.
