In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for You alone, O Lord, make me to dwell in safety. Psalm 4:8
Most of us take care when we prepare for bed. We depend on our earthly comforts to help us be comfortable. Good mattress, right temperature, and doors locked give us a sense of peace. Let's not forget our most important benefit. While we sleep, God is awake. Our first prayer may have been, "Now I lay me down to sleep..." Let's resurrect our bedtime prayers, and in peace we will lie down and sleep.
