If you are willing to reflect on the meaning of night, you will
also discover the infinite providence of the Creator.
Night restores the tired body and relaxes limbs which are tense
through the efforts of the day. By means
of rest, night helps them to regain their rhythm.
And not only that. Night
sets you free from sorrow and relieves your worries. It often reduces fever by making sleep a cure
and by changing itself into a doctor’s assistant.
That is the importance of night.
It is so great that often if you cannot benefit from your rest, you will
not have the strength to face a new day.
At night, as in a time of truce, the exhausted soul and the worn
out body regain their energy and are prepared to take up their daily activity
again. On the other hand, if we prolong
the day into night by staying awake to work or even to do nothing, we are
condemning ourselves to being useless because gradually our strength is wasted.
