A Grateful Rest | Your Nightly Prayer

Contributing Writer
Updated Feb 07, 2025

Father, It's easy to think of things that make me mad or sad. So please fill my heart with thankfulness. You are good and gracious. All powerful and omniscient. I can trust you, and I can sleep while you guard me against stressors and against myself. Highlight the gifts all around me which come from you. And if life is difficult. Remind me of those many times in the past when you led me out of danger or when circumstances were peaceful and joyful. Never let me forget to be grateful most of all. That you guard me like a shepherd against any roaming beasts of the spiritual realms at night. Amen.
