Today I’m feeling tired. I could use a cat nap. Cats sleep. They sleep up to 20 hours a day. If you have a cat, you’ll notice various forms of their sleeping. They have deep sleep and dreams, light sleep, the I’m sleep but you woke me up and the leave me alone. JC is hilarious when he is in a deep sleep. You will not be able to find him.
However, we humans likely don’t have enough sleep. We could do with more cat naps and more rest overall. Even God rested and if He has to rest, then so should we. Here are a few of my favorite pictures of the cats sleeping. Koko sleeps like a mad woman! As she’s gotten older, she sleeps more like a traditional cat curled up in a ball. But she will just lay splayed out as she is in the pic and just sleep. I love that she is totally relaxed enough to let herself go.
We can’t always sleep like we wants or need to but hopefully at some point we are getting well deserved rest. God rested on the seventh day. Rest is restorative. we cant neglect it.
