Dear Heavenly Father,

As I lay down to rest tonight, I come before You with a heart full of anxiety and worry. The weight of my thoughts has been heavy, and the worries of the day seem endless. I acknowledge that I am not in control of all things, but I trust that You are.

You are my refuge and strength, and I turn to You for peace in the midst of my turmoil.

Lord, I ask You to calm the storm within my mind. Quiet the voices of fear, doubt, and uncertainty that try to steal my peace. Help me to remember that You are always with me, holding me in Your loving embrace, even in the darkest hours of the night.

I choose to surrender my anxiety to You, knowing that You are capable of carrying my burdens.

Please help me to release all the worries that weigh heavily on my heart. Teach me to let go of the things I cannot change, and grant me the courage to trust in Your perfect plan for my life. Fill my heart with Your peace, the peace that surpasses all understanding.

Let Your presence surround me, guarding my mind and spirit as I rest tonight.

I pray for rest that restores my body, mind, and soul. Let sleep be a time of renewal, free from the clutches of anxiety. May I awaken refreshed and ready to face the new day, confident in Your love and faithfulness.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV)
