The Gift of Sleep
"In peace I will lie down and sleep."
— Psalm 4:8
Lord of rest,
Sleep is a wonderful gift. Every night, my body and mind regenerate, repair, prepare for a new day. Without sleep, I could not function.
Thank You for sleep. For those hours when I let go, when I rest in Your care, when my unconscious does its work of healing and integration.
For those who cannot sleep, I pray: calm their insomnia, quiet their nighttime worries, give them the rest they so need.
Amen.
