For the last several years I have been plagued by a decreasing tolerance for the waking state.  From age 8 or 9 I can recall staying up late to watch TV.  I have always loved the night (not darkness mind you.)<\/p>\n<p>In my rush to get this site up and running, I found sleep between the hours of 4:20 am and 6:45 am PST.  And arrived at work 27 miles through traffic, at 8:30am.<\/p>\n<p>It hurts! Right now I am thinking about a short article on the virtue which is mentioned in relation to Christ.  From the KJV the following verses are the most notable for translation:<\/p>\n<p>Mark 5:30<br \/>\nLuke 6:19<br \/>\nLuke 8:46 I leave it to you to look them up!  I did! (just added the <a href=\"http:\/\/scripturizer.wordpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Scripturizer\">Scripturizer<\/a> plugin sweet!!)<br \/>\nThe Greek here is indicative of power and ability, in terms of spiritual strength.  Some of the alternate renderings of the word are &#8220;mighty works,&#8221; &#8220;the power,&#8221; and from Acts 8:13 &#8220;the miracles.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Think about  Luke 6:19<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>19 And the whole multitude sought to touch Him, for power went out from Him and healed them all.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I could sure use a dose of that right now. He carries us every step of the way.  Bearing us up upon eagles wings.  I&#8217;ll think about this a bit more and get back to it.  Please let me know if you are finding any problems with the site.  I want things to work for all!<\/p>\n<p>Blessings!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some of us are born to sleep, others are born to burn out.
