God keeps waking me up early to pray; it’s quite annoying. I have a regular prayer time daily (that keeps getting longer and longer) and I enjoy that, it’s cool to talk to Him about stuff every day. So I figure that He should be pretty satisfied with that, but nope. Every morning, between 5:30 and 6:00, I get roused from sleep. This has been happening for a couple of months now. I used to try to go back to sleep, but I never could so I stopped and now I just get to praying right away. Anyway, the whole thing bugs because I’m getting up so early that I don’t get enough sleep and I’m usually kind of grumpy through the day. I suppose that I could start going to bed earlier, but then I’d miss out on some TV shows (I have to DVR everything because I have three small children that control the TV)…wait a minute, you mean this God trying to get me to give something up? Aaaarrgh!

Be so much easier if He’d just zap me and make me good instead of this whole “dying to self” thing.
