Random Insomnia

Insomnia. It's on nights like this when I really feel for the people with that problem.
Correct me if I'm wrong here but doesn't the inability to sleep SUCK like no other? I find it 'funny' how I can be completely exhausted all day, but the minute I lay down suddenly I'm wired.
My mind is racing through everything I have to do tomorrow and whether or not I'll be able to get it all done in the time I have left after skiing, I thought that kind of Insomniatical stress was reserved for motherhood and motherhood alone. Apparently not-.-
And the earlier I have to get up the worse it is, I lay here counting the small number of hours of sleep I'll get before I have to wake up, which only makes the non sleep all the more awake of course,...ah well it happens to the best of us I suppose.
On a lighter, less angry-at-my-mind-for-not-following-the-sleeping-schedule-of-my-body note.
SKIING!!
Skiing is such a crazy thing. Every single time I think about it I get those nervous heebiejeebies. The clenched feeling in my stomach [probably due to the worst day of my life. But we've all heard that story..probably more than once:p] I think about all the various ways/bones to injure wiping out. The nervous feeling lasts until I actually get out there on the snow, and then I'm in love. I love love love skiing. I don't even think about being afraid, not even of wiping out, while I'm on the snow going down a run. It's so funny how you can love something and fear it at the same time. Makes me think of our love for God. We can love Him so much, yet still be afraid of Him. Holding onto our fears until we are actually in His presence and then we can't get enough of the calm peace He'll give us if we simply seek Him for it.
Consequentially that brings me to my ABSOLUTE favorite bible verse [my favorite verse is the first one, but the whole chapter is phenomenal] :

Psalm 121
I lift my eyes unto the hills-
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the maker of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip-
he who watches over you will
not slumber;
indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
The Lord watches over you-
the Lord is your shade at your right
hand;
the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
The Lord will keep you from all harm-
he will watch over your life;
the Lord will watch over your coming
and going
both now and forever more.

That makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Knowing that the God who created every single one of us, and then came and died to rescue us, the God who keeps loving us every single time we mess up and break his heart, He guarantees us that He's going to take care of us always. Simply because He loves us. A love that big is something to be in shock and awe about right there.
The whole skiing thing really makes me think of the way humans tend to look up to something grand and majestic for help. Forgetting sometimes to put their faith in God to take care of them instead of other things that seem greater because we can see them. God made all those things, and he is grander than every single one of them.

"God is bigger than the Boogie Man.
He's bigger than Godzilla..."
