MIDNIGHT
Today's reading: Psalm 119

"At midnight I rise to thank you..." Psalm 119:62 NLT

There are nights when the occurrences of the day have my mind still going at midnight.

There are nights when the fears of tomorrow keep me awake.

There are nights when doubts in my heart keep me from falling, and staying, asleep.

There are nights when circumstances have me on my knees beside my bed.

And then there are nights, like this psalm writer knows, when you can't sleep because you need to thank God for all He is and has done. To just say, 'Thank you'.

A midnight mass, of sorts.

A special time of thanks.

A thanksgiving service in your heart.

A time when the world slumbers, but you are up giving thanks.
