It's 2.30 am and I'm up rambling around when I've promised myself to sleep and wake up earlier for tomorrow. For the rest of the week. Till the second coming. Yet I'm not asleep.

In my defence, I had a huge dinner coma after (duh) dinner and took a nap from around 9.30 pm to midnight. That was 2.5 hours off my 8 hours of sleeping quota, which means I still have 5.5 hours left. Which means if I sleep at 3, I should be able to wake up at 8.30! Let's see how that works out.

Anyway. Today has been most kind. I felt super productive after an extra long holiday mood. I'm starting to get worried if I'll stay moodless forever but thank God today came about.

So I woke up late. As usual. Had breakfast and decided to read my Bible. Why is reading my Bible in the morning out of the ordinary and worth mentioning? Here you go. My morning devo usually consists of reading a page out of my devo book or daily devo mail, (am subsbribed to Joyce Meyer, NCC, Joseph Prince, Max Lucado, Proverbs 31 Ministry, and a few plans from the You Version Bible app, if you're wondering. I'd usually just pick one out of them to read daily, which causes my inbox to have 14.000+ unopened mail) Read a verse from it, read the devo content, and at night, if I had the time and am not too tired, I'd open my Bible. And honestly I've been skipping a lot of the night routine since like around Christmas.

But today, I really wanted to start with worship. And why not, right? Since I've got the flexibility these days. So I did. Then, I took my Bible and actually read it, and almost ended up dozing off. It wasn't a super strenuous 2 hour Bible study. It's more like a Daddy-daughter conversation, which ended up leaving me feel so loved by Daddy God.

And the day turned better than ever. Somehow, though I woke up late as usual, I got a lot of stuff done, which is very nice.

I'm not trying to make this a formula. Open your Bible till you doze off and your day will – according to the formula – turn out great. Nah. By now we should all know that Christianity is not about scoring points with God.  I've kind of missed Him and I know He's missed me more.

Actually there are no concrete conclusions to this post. I just wanted to share my fruitful day.

Good morning, peeps!
