In peace I will both lie down and sleep; for You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.Psalm 4:8 (ESV)
In today's modern world, many distractions can keep us from a good night's sleep. Good rest evades many, even with all the technology and wealth available to us. As true believers of Christ, we know we have entered into eternal salvation and rest in Jesus. We are no longer yoked to the world, but to Christ. Jesus's yoke is easy, and His burden is light. We can rest easy knowing our Heavenly Father watches over us as we rest and sleep to be competent witnesses to a world that needs to see the love of Christ.
Father, When You created the world, You rested on the seventh day. Rest is important to You as well as to us as Your creation. Help us to enter into Your rest, God, and to live surrendered lives to You, Lord Jesus. In Jesus' precious name, Amen.
