What Steals Your Sleep?

“When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.”
Proverbs 3:24

So many people have a hard time sleeping these days. They toss and they turn, they worry and fret, they think and ponder…then the alarm clock rings and they rise to meet the day already exhausted.

Is that you? What’s happening in your life that is so heavy that it prevents you from letting go and getting a RESTFUL nights sleep?

Understandably, there ARE physical ailments and injuries that can keep a person awake due to pain and discomfort…but that’s not the focus today.

The focus is on worry, fretting, fear, and obsession with the details of life that SHOULD BE left in God’s mighty hands.

Proverbs chapter 3 tells us to embrace the Word and wisdom of God, trusting in Him to lead us through life.
THEN we’re promised sweet sleep… restorative and restful sleep, as God intended.

Politics? Tyranny? Inflation?
Bills? Job? Health? Loved ones?
Fears? Worries? Anxiety?

God wants you to give it all to Him.
Lean on Him. Trust in Him.
Whatever “it” is in your life that has you stressed and obsessed, He knew it was coming a long time ago.

Take a deep breath, friend.

Have a great day with the Lord.
And get some good sleep tonight.

Keep your armor on.
