Sleep for the Soul That Won't Settle | Your Nightly Prayer
Have you ever climbed into bed completely exhausted, only to discover that your soul was still wide awake?
Your body is tired, but your heart keeps rehearsing conversations, carrying disappointments, worrying about tomorrow, or searching for answers that never seem to come.
Restlessness has a way of convincing us that if we think a little longer, worry a little harder, or replay the situation one more time, we'll finally find peace.
But peace isn't found by carrying more.
It's found by surrendering more.
Jesus never promised a life without burdens. He promised that we wouldn't have to carry them alone.
His invitation in Matthew 11 isn't to people who have everything together. It's to those who are weary, burdened, and ready to admit they need Him.
Tonight, perhaps the greatest act of faith is not finding every answer before you sleep—it is placing your unanswered questions into the hands of the One who already knows tomorrow.
