When you lie down, you will not be afraid; Yes, you will lie down, and your sleep will be sweet. (Proverbs 3:24 NKJV)
The race of life is hard. There are hills and valleys, twists and turns. Life has challenges and disappointments. Life has fears and concerns. Sometimes sleep is hard to come by. The word of the Lord says, “When you lie down…” First, we must trust Him enough to lie down and rest. We must trust Him for recovery. We must trust His word! We must not be afraid of anything that life brings us. Worry is fear and a thief of sleep. Do not worry. Lie down in the confidence that every thing is going to be alright. This promise for us is not just sleep, but sweet, agreeable sleep.
I enCOURAGE you to trust His word for sweet sleep in your nights. You need the time for the muscles of the body, the soul and spirit to repair and restore themselves. SWEET SLEEP! God says so!
❤❤❤ This is verse I wrote on an index card, put on my nightstand, and read every night to encourage myself in the Word to quell fear when Stan and I divorced and I moved into the apartment.
