Let's Do It

Alright Quest, I have an idea. I've been thinking about doing it for a while now, but reading Haley's post really made me want to tell y'all about it and see if you want to join in and do it with me.

Go one night without (or maybe with very little) sleep. Spend the night in prayer and intimate conversation with the Lord! Then, the next day when you are probably going to want to fall apart and be grouchy and lazy, depend only on the Lord to sustain you. Because we all know he can! It's just a super practical way to let the Lord work and learn to trust him fully. I mean, think about it, what if you had NO SLEEP from a Thursday morning until Friday night? you would definitely not be able to handle everything on your own for that Friday. You would NEED God, and you would be able to see and feel that need if you already don't.

Someone once told me that the Lord uses you most when you have nothing left to give (on your own strength). So this is a way to let God's strength show through our weakness. Who's with me!?
