Instructions in the night.
Why would the author point out that he is instructed in the night? Wouldn't sleep deprivation cloud thinking and judgement? But, as I lay here @ 4am holding my sickly 6 month old, I've been able to think and pray more clearly than I have in a long time! I'm not worrying about laundry, dishes or a clean house. My mind is clear and open. The house is quiet, neighbors lights are out and the city is asleep. My mind is clear, my heart open. Praying over my son, praying over decisions. I am quiet and open to answers- my answers come. "Be still and know that I am God!" ...I see now why the author was instructed in the night. His own thoughts and worries out of the way- wholy focused on Him, wholy surrendered to the quiet of the night.
