BQ: Have you ever experienced the misery of being awake for too long? More than a few times, I've worked over 120 hours/week, and on a few occasions, I've been awake over 72 hours straight. God uses the concept of this sort of sleepless misery to communicate and important point, saying,
Unless the Lord builds the house, They labor in vain who build it;
Unless the Lord guards the city, The watchman keeps awake in vain. (Psa 127:1)
Sometimes, as Christians, we want to try and "fix" our lives by making up our own rules and own solutions, often because they're "easier" or more pleasant than God's own plan for us. When we do that, we're like a person working 20-hour days every day, staying awake all night, yet accomplishing nothing. If you're trying to fix your life, don't try to freelance it—there's already a perfect plan! :)
