Daily: Give Us Deep Rest

Dear Lord,

I pray that you would give us good and deep rest this week. That we would experience physical rest that leaves us feeling refreshed and alert. That we would sleep without worry, anxiety, and stress.

I pray that we would make rest a priority in our lives this week. That we would value a good night’s rest. That we would fence off time for rest so our body is ready for the work you’ve given us. That we wouldn’t feel guilty about taking a much needed nap. Thank you for making our bodies to need to rest in sleep a third of our lives. We pray Lord that you would give us deep rest this week.

In Jesus’ name amen
