My God and Savior, tonight, my soul requires rest. As a deer pants for streams of living water, my soul thirsts after Your Spirit. Day and night, I need Your refreshing presence to restore my soul and uphold my countenance. There are nights when I am restless, and thoughts thrash around my mind like waves upon the shore. Steady the waves, oh God. Calm the seas and speak peace over me as I sleep. When downcast and lacking rest, place me upon the gentle shores of love and grace. Let me feel the warmth of Your embrace. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.
