An Evening Prayer

As you settle in for the night, I pray that you will be able to settle in your soul. May the peace of Jesus relieve you of any disturbances, and bring you into a place of full rest. Where your body is weary, may it be comforted by the Holy Spirit, and be able to lean into the bosom of Jesus. If your mind is racing, may your Heavenly Father speak kindly to you, and reassure you, that He will take care of everything for you. You can leave those things with Him, knowing that no amount of worry will ever be able to add a single moment to your life.  When you arise in the morning, you can ask for His further guidance, knowing that He will help you, and guide you, in knowing what to do.

Thank you, Lord Jesus, for my brothers and sisters in Christ. As they rest, may you help them to drift off to sleep. During their sleep, may they rest comfortably in your arms, knowing that you will take care of them, and you will let no harm come their way. They can trust you, rely on you, and depend on you to take care of them, always. For they have trusted in you for their salvation, and you will remain faithful to complete the work that you have started within them until you call them home, where they will be able to meet with you, face to face.

To His beloved: May the LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn His face toward you and give you peace. (Numbers 6:24-26)
