JanBeek

Many of us have been there. I battle sleepless night myself. Middle of the night. All should be at peace. Except for one problem. We can’t sleep. Thoughts are going rapidly through our minds, anxieties pressing us. Fear seems to be darker than the dark room It’s hard to see or think clearly. Many things can keep us awake. Wide awake!

Maybe a notification from your phone woke you up. Maybe a bad dream. Or something you ate. Often, it’s much deeper than that. Worry, stress, money problems steal away our hours of sleep. Pain that we are our loved ones could be facing, can cause true peace to be a constant battle. Unforgiveness, resentment, bitterness and anger make it difficult to turn off our thoughts and rehearing the script over and over again.

Whatever the reason, sleep can seem so far away. The only thing that will bring comfort and peace is God’s word.

Verses that can help:

1 Peter 5:7

Isiah 26:3-4

Proverbs 3:24

John 14:27

As we sleep I pray that we will be comforted by the Word of God.

Great post 😁

I did sleep well, and trust you did

This one simple step can have so much positive effect on all of those who surround us. I often wondered, what if each person just made the simple commitment o make it a grateful day. What peace we all could spread to the world.
