"In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for You alone, O Lord, make me to dwell in safety." -Psalms 4:8 (NASB)
One of my colleagues spearheaded a pajama drive to benefit children at local homeless and women's shelters. In the midst of collecting food and money to benefit those in need, we sometimes overlook the need to be warm and comforted for a good night's sleep. A nice pair of pajamas can give kids the warm, safe feeling needed for a good night's sleep.
When our minds and souls become unsettled and interrupt our sleep, we can find warmth, love, and comfort through faith in God. Like putting on warm, cozy pajamas, our faith can give us the security and peace that we need to sleep and rest our tired minds and bodies. When preparing for sleep, we need to pray and renew our faith in God so we can sleep well.
Lie down in peace and safety with faith in God so you can sleep well!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the peace and safety that You offer to me. Please allow my mind and body to rest so that I can be my best for You. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
