Transcript

I come to you with a heart ready to rest in your presence.

Thank you for walking with me through this day,

Through its joys,

Its challenges,

And its quiet moments.

I am grateful for your unfailing love and the way you guide me even when I cannot see the path ahead.

Now,

Lord,

I lay before you all the burdens I've carried today.

I release every worry,

Every mistake,

And every unfinished task,

Trusting that you hold it all in your capable hands.

Teach me to let go and trust your perfect timing.

Fill my mind with your peace,

The kind that silences fears and calms anxious thoughts.

As I close my eyes tonight,

Surround me with your presence.

Let me feel your nearness like a warm embrace.

Restore my body with restful sleep and renew my spirit for the day ahead.

Guard my home and my loved ones and fill this space with your protection and grace.

Thank you,

Lord,

For being my refuge and strength.

Thank you for holding me close even as I sleep.

Help me awaken tomorrow with a heart filled with gratitude and ready to face the day with your guidance.

I will both lay me down in peace and sleep,

For thou,

Lord,

Only makest me dwell in safety.

Psalm 4,

8.

Amen.
