Through the summer, I'm teaming up with my friend Kelli at Adventurez in ChildRearing to bring you a series of reflections and link ups on Proverbs 31 as we study along with Good Morning Girls. Get all the details on the study in the kick-off post. Daily discussion is going on in our Proverbs 31 Facebook Group. You're invited to join us too – just request to be added to the group.

Week 5 Reflections:
Work Hard, Sleep Well
She perceives that her merchandise is profitable.
Her lamp does not go out at night.
Proverbs 31:18
The Proverbs 31 Woman never slept. Her lamp didn't go out. Sleep? Who has time to sleep?
Wrong!
The Proverbs 31 Woman worked hard all day and into the evening. In order to get up early, she had to sleep at some point. She had to rest to work as hard as she did.
You need to take care of yourself. I personally need a lot of sleep to function well. I need a good 8 hours. Some people, like my husband Josh, can get away with less, but everyone has a functional minium.
Ideally, I'd like to be up at 6am. That doesn't happen as often as I'd like for it to because I tend to stay up too late. In order to get up at 6am, I need to be in bed at 10pm. So my goals is to consistently be in bed as close to 10pm as possible.
