Sleeplessness can become a self-perpetuating habit. As a result, your body will produce less of the hormones you need. Then, a vicious cycle of not being able to sleep will follow.
We need adequate sleep for good health, a productive life, and a happy disposition. During the sleep cycle our body rests from physical exertion. More importantly, your brain can relax from daily problem solving. Many internal functions take place within your body during the sleep cycle, including normal maintenance and repair of damaged cells.
Melatrol has combined quality natural ingredients which will combat your insomnia on a long term basis. Getting a relaxed, peaceful sleep is as important to your health and productivity as food. Getting less than seven hours sleep every night will mean you are not functioning at your best and will find yourself being very grouchy.
All you have to do is to confirm your interest at christine.absalon15186@gmail.com and we'll send You the necessary information.
Best regards,

=========================== TODAY'S ARTICLE ==========================
Memory and More, by Phil Ware
The Centurion stood sheepishly before the governor, Pontius Pilate. He
had not asked for this duty. His century of men were elite troops of
Rome stationed in Caesarea. Caesarea was near the coast, beautiful,
felt more like home, and was far away from this dangerous and harsh
place called Jerusalem.
With rumors about the Nazarene named Jesus floating in the air, King
Herod had asked for a stronger Roman military presence during the
Passover feast. When the Jewish Ruling Council had sent Jesus to Pilate
and screamed for his execution, Pilate had sent the Centurion along
with his men to keep the peace and oversee the execution. His job was
to keep the peace and confirm to Pilate that the Nazarene was dead.
Watching over the death detail was beneath his station. The Centurion
was professional soldier, not an executioner and prison house lackey.
When ordered to carry out Pilate's sentence on the Nazarene, he had
expected the worst. Reality proved him right.
Ranting and raving, insults and cruel jokes, with three men dying the
slow death of crucifixion were expected. Earthquakes, darkness at
midday, and the eerie sense of something much bigger happening had set
the Centurion on edge. The look in the Nazarene's eye, however, was
what tugged at his heart. Jesus had said, "Father forgive them, they
don't know what they are doing." Then the Nazarene had looked right at
him.
As the death detail cast lots for his clothes, as the religious
powerbrokers hurled their insults, as the other two criminals cursed
and screamed at the crowd, the Nazarene had prayed for their
forgiveness -- his forgiveness! Then this dying Jesus had looked at one
of his friends and told him to take care of his mother. He then looked
to the heavens, and seemed to give his spirit up to some unseen deity
-- this God whom he called Father. In that moment, this
battle-hardened, best of Rome's fighting machine hero, surprised
himself. "Surely this was the Son of God," he heard himself say.
Now that Jesus' death was confirmed, Pilate was sending him back to
Golgotha. He in his silver burnished armor, a rich man named Joseph in
his fancy clothes, along with a man in all of the religious garb he had
seen earlier. Only thse two men were allowed to take down the body of
the Nazarene from cross and bury it. The Centurion and his men were to
accompany them. This was "to ensure that nothing happened with the
body," Pilate and the High Priest had emphasized.
So here he was again, the Centurion at the foot of a fowl smelling,
blood-stained, instrument of torture to take down a mutilated body.
Somehow, he still he felt drawn to this Nazarene. In a weird way, he
even felt connected to the rich guy and the religious man even though
their lives were worlds apart.
Could it get any stranger -- this death detail that must now oversee
the burial of an executed Nazarene to be placed in a borrowed tomb?
Somehow, the Centurion knew this story wasn't over. Even when his men
rolled the stone across the door to the tomb and sealed it shut, he
knew he hadn't heard the end of the Nazarene.
Little did the Centurion know that the strange pull of faith on his
heart would be challenged and enlivened with what was about to happen
over the next few days. "Surely this Jesus is the Son of God," he heard
his heart say it again. In the coming weeks, many would come to agree
with him.
Is that exactly how the story happened? I'm not sure. That's how I put
it together in my imagination after looking at the different accounts
of Jesus' crucifixion focusing on the role of the Roman Centurion --
see the account from the Gospel of Mark at the bottom of this article.
But for me, there is a bigger issue for you and me.
On this Memorial Day Weekend, let's remember that soldiers in Jesus'
day recognized something powerful and commanding about Him -- like the
Roman Centurion who confesses Jesus as the Son of God. In fact, in the
early years of the Jesus movement, we meet three Centurions who all
demonstrate some level of faith in Jesus:
* The Centurion with the sick servant who recognizes Jesus' authority
(Luke 7:1-10).
* The Centurion at the Cross who confesses Jesus as the Son of God (Mark
15:37-37).
* The Centurion named Cornelius who becomes the first Gentile
disciple recognized by the church leaders in Jerusalem (Acts
10:1-48;Acts 11:1-18).
On this Memorial Day Weekend as folks remember the sacrifices of those
who paid the ultimate price for their loyalty to USA and it's ideals,
let's remember Jesus. Let's recognize what those Centurions saw in
Jesus in their day:
* That we can receive the Lord's help with appreciation and
confidence knowing He has the ultimate authority to bless our lives
(Luke 7:5-10).
* That we can trust that Jesus is the Son of God who has died on the
Cross to share God's life with us (Mark 15:37-39).
* That no matter how good our life may appear (Acts 10:22-23), Jesus
calls each of us to receive the Holy Spirit and be baptized based
on our faith (Acts 10:34-48;Acts 11:15-18).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
LIFE Group & HomeGathering Questions:
Which of the three things do you need most to do with Jesus?
* ... receive the Lord's help with appreciation and confidence?
So what are you going to do with Jesus?
* ... believe that Jesus is the Son of God who died for you?
* ... respond to Jesus' offer grace by believing in Him, receiving
His Spirit, and being baptized?
What does it say about the kind of man that Jesus must have been if
career soldiers in Rome's army believed and followed Him as their Lord?
* Why do you think Jesus has been portrayed as a wimpy and weak man
for the most part in art and in movies?
* How do we know this is not a true portrayal of who Jesus was?
* What events in the life of Jesus help you best picture Jesus as a
strong, powerful, person with the personal authority to make to
make things happen?
* Women were also powerfully touched by Jesus and even supported
Jesus, yet Jesus was not accused of being sexually immoral with
women or "under the thumb" of women. How do you think he avoided
these accusations?
Which of the three stories of the Centurions in the New Testament is
your favorite story and why?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mark's account of the Roman Centurion at the Cross:
The curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. And
when the centurion, who stood there in front of Jesus, saw how he
died,b he said, "Surely this man was the Son of God!"
Some women were watching from a distance. Among them were Mary
Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joseph, and
Salome. In Galilee these women had followed him and cared for his
needs. Many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem were
also there.
It was Preparation Day (that is, the day before the Sabbath). So as
evening approached, Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent member of the
Council, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, went
boldly to Pilate and asked for Jesus' body. Pilate was surprised to
hear that he was already dead. Summoning the centurion, he asked
him if Jesus had already died. When he learned from the centurion
that it was so, he gave the body to Joseph. So Joseph bought some
linen cloth, took down the body, wrapped it in the linen, and
placed it in a tomb cut out of rock. Then he rolled a stone against
the entrance of the tomb. Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of
Joseph saw where he was laid
(Mark 15:37-47 TNIV).

Morning & Evening -- Psalms 66:20 and Philippians 1:27
-/\/\-----------------------------------------------------------------
\ / Charles Spurgeon's MORNING & EVENING http://www.heartlight.org/
--\/------------------------------------------------------------------
Sunday, May 24, 2009
MORNING:
"Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer."
-- Psalms 66:20
In looking back upon the character of our prayers, if we do it
honestly, we shall be filled with wonder that God has ever answered
them. There may be some who think their prayers worthy of acceptance-as
the Pharisee did; but the true Christian, in a more enlightened
retrospect, weeps over his prayers, and if he could retrace his steps
he would desire to pray more earnestly. Remember, Christian, how cold
thy prayers have been. When in thy closet thou shouldst have wrestled
as Jacob did; but instead thereof, thy petitions have been faint and
few-far removed from that humble, believing, persevering faith, which
cries, "I will not let thee go except thou bless me." Yet, wonderful to
say, God has heard these cold prayers of thine, and not only heard, but
answered them. Reflect also, how infrequent have been thy prayers,
unless thou hast been in trouble, and then thou hast gone often to the
mercy-seat: but when deliverance has come, where has been thy constant
supplication? Yet, notwithstanding thou hast ceased to pray as once
thou didst, God has not ceased to bless. When thou hast neglected the
mercy-seat, God has not deserted it, but the bright light of the
Shekinah has always been visible between the wings of the cherubim. Oh!
it is marvellous that the Lord should regard those intermittent spasms
of importunity which come and go with our necessities. What a God is he
thus to hear the prayers of those who come to him when they have
pressing wants, but neglect him when they have received a mercy; who
approach him when they are forced to come, but who almost forget to
address him when mercies are plentiful and sorrows are few. Let his
gracious kindness in hearing such prayers touch our hearts, so that we
may henceforth be found "Praying always with all prayer and
supplication in the Spirit."
EVENING:
"Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of
Christ."
-- Philippians 1:27
The word "conversation" does not merely mean our talk and converse with
one another, but the whole course of our life and behaviour in the
world. The Greek word signifies the actions and the privileges of
citizenship: and thus we are commanded to let our actions, as citizens
of the New Jerusalem, be such as becometh the gospel of Christ. What
sort of conversation is this? In the first place, the gospel is very
simple. So Christians should be simple and plain in their habits. There
should be about our manner, our speech, our dress, our whole behaviour,
that simplicity which is the very soul of beauty. The gospel is
pre-eminently true, it is gold without dross; and the Christian's life
will be lustreless and valueless without the jewel of truth. The gospel
is a very fearless gospel, it boldly proclaims the truth, whether men
like it or not: we must be equally faithful and unflinching. But the
gospel is also very gentle. Mark this spirit in its Founder: "a bruised
reed he will not break." Some professors are sharper than a
thorn-hedge; such men are not like Jesus. Let us seek to win others by
the gentleness of our words and acts. The gospel is very loving. It is
the message of the God of love to a lost and fallen race. Christ's last
command to his disciples was, "Love one another." O for more real,
hearty union and love to all the saints; for more tender compassion
towards the souls of the worst and vilest of men! We must not forget
that the gospel of Christ is holy. It never excuses sin: it pardons it,
but only through an atonement. If our life is to resemble the gospel,
we must shun, not merely the grosser vices, but everything that would
hinder our perfect conformity to Christ. For his sake, for our own
sakes, and for the sakes of others, we must strive day by day to let
our conversation be more in accordance with his gospel.

My Utmost For His Highest : "The Delight Of Despair"
-/\/\-----------------------------------------------------------------
\ / MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST -- http://www.heartlight.org/
--\/------------------------------------------------------------------
May 24, 2009
THE DELIGHT OF DESPAIR
And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead.
Revelation 1:17
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=re+1:17&sr=1
It may be that like the apostle John you know Jesus Christ
intimately, when suddenly He appears with no familiar characteristic
at all, and the only thing you can do is to fall at His feet as dead.
There are times when God cannot reveal Himself in any other way than
in His majesty, and it is the awfulness of the vision which brings
you to the delight of despair; if you are ever to be raised up, it
must be by the hand of God.
"He laid His right hand upon me." In the midst of the awfulness, a
touch comes, and you know it is the right hand of Jesus Christ. The
right hand not of restraint nor of correction nor of chastisement,
but the right hand of the Everlasting Father. Whenever His hand is
laid upon you, it is ineffable peace and comfort, the sense that
"underneath are the everlasting arms," full of sustaining and comfort
and strength. When once His touch comes, nothing at all can cast you
into fear again. In the midst of all His ascended glory the Lord
Jesus comes to speak to an insignificant disciple, and to say - "Fear
not." His tenderness is ineffably sweet. Do I know Him like that?
Watch some of the things that strike despair. There is despair in
which there is no delight, no horizon, no hope of anything brighter;
but the delight of despair comes when I know that "in me (that is, in
my flesh) dwelleth no good thing." I delight to know that there is
that in me which must fall prostrate before God when He manifests
Himself, and if I am ever to be raised up it must be by the hand of
God. God can do nothing for me until I get to the limit of the
possible.

MY LIFE, GOD'S MESSAGE
2 Corinthians 3:3-6
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=2+Corinthians+3:3-6
Dear Father, all-sufficient God,
Let me be a letter from Christ written to people who need to hear
the Good News, written not on paper with ink but on hearts with my
loving attitudes and actions.
I claim no self-sufficiency, but I believe the sufficiency of your
grace qualifies me to serve as a spokesman for your new covenant. I
hope through Christ that you might use me this way. Grant me this
sufficiency as I rely totally on you.
Thank you that the covenant itself is not a written code that
kills but a life-giving communication of the Spirit.
In the name of Jesus, confident of his sufficiency, I make these
requests. Amen.

WJD! -- Repentance or Consequences -- Matthew 11:20-21
-/\/\-----------------------------------------------------------------
\ / WHAT JESUS DID! -- http://www.heartlight.org/
--\/------------------------------------------------------------------
Sunday, May 24, 2009
Repentance or Consequences
Then Jesus criticized the cities where he did most of his
miracles. Jesus criticized those cities because the people
there did not change their lives and stop sinning. Jesus
said, "It will be bad for you Chorazin. It will be bad for
you Bethsaida. I did many miracles in you. If those same
miracles had happened in Tyre and Sidon, then those people in
Tyre and Sidon would have changed their lives a long time
ago. Those people would have worn sackcloth and put ashes on
themselves to show that they were sorry for their sins."
-- Matthew 11:20-21 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
Why is it so hard to change? Why is a certain mindset so hard to give
up? As humans, we can be terribly obstinate and hardheaded. Jesus wants
to confront us with a choice: see his deeds and repent, or reap the
consequences of rejecting him. He allows no middle ground. As Jesus'
ministry rushes toward inevitable conflict and the Cross, he wants us
to know that the choices we make and the lives that we live in response
to his message have enormous consequence. When confronted with Jesus'
deeds, even the most stubborn cities would repent. So how can we not be
willing to change our hearts and lives to follow him?
TODAY'S PRAYER:
Righteous and holy God, give me an undivided and courageous heart so
that I will confront the wrong things in my own life, change my heart
and life, and live wholly for you. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Today's Verse : Acts 16:25
-/\/\-----------------------------------------------------------------
\ / TODAY'S VERSE from HEARTLIGHT -- http://www.heartlight.org/
--\/------------------------------------------------------------------
May 24, 2009
VERSE:
About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to
God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.
-- Acts 16:25
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Acts+16:25
THOUGHT:
Falsely imprisoned, Paul and Silas had been beaten "with many
blows," placed in prison, and locked down in stocks. Under such
horrible circumstances, they managed to praise God in hymns and
pray to their Father in Heaven. Under this kind of pressure, their
faith caught the attention of the other prisoners who listened to
them. We need to be reminded that over the years of Christian
witness, some of the most effective times of evangelism happened
because Christians remained faithful and joyous people despite
persecution and harassment. Nothing should limit our prayer and
praise. God will use them to reach the hearts of those in the most
difficult of places!
PRAYER:
Holy Father, in times of adverse reaction against me because of
my faith, I pray that you will make me a loving, respected, and
forceful witness for Jesus. I ask this not so that I can boast, but
so that others can more fully know your grace and come to Jesus to
be saved. In the name of my Savior, Jesus, I pray. Amen.
