About this prayer
Prayer for sleep and peace: place the weight of today in the hands of Jesus before bed. “I will give you rest.” — Matthew11:28, KJV (excerpt). Full verse: “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Lord Jesus, I place this day in Your hands. Forgive my mistakes, quiet my thoughts, and help me release what I cannot change. Please bring Your peace into this home. Watch over the people I love, and teach my heart to rest in Your care tonight. Amen. Use the private check-in to name one burden you are placing in God’s care tonight. This prayer asks for comfort and rest; it does not guarantee sleep, safety or resolution of every concern.
