Welcome to this Abide Bedtime Story.

You serve a God who protects you when you sleep, who loves you more than you can imagine,

and whose faithfulness endures forever.

As the psalmist wrote in Psalm 100, the God of Scripture will never leave you.

He's always by your side.

He's with you right now as you prepare to rest.

Our God is worthy of worship.

As you get ready to enjoy this bedtime story let your head sink into your pillow and your

arms and legs relax on your bed get comfortable and enjoy the wonderful feeling of the

sheet and the blanket and the pillowcase. If something needs to be

adjusted, simply pause the Abide app and come right back. Find relaxing sounds on the Abide app to

accompany the story. And if you fall asleep during the story, that's okay.

In fact, that's great.

The app will stop on its own.

Give your problems to God right now.

Accept his gift of peace and his gift of sleep join me as I pray for you

your father you are the God of daytime and night time the God of work and the god of sleep we know sleep is a gift from you

you rested on the seventh day your word even says that we can go to bed without fear that we will lie down and sleep soundly.

Father, today's work is done. I pray now for this precious person that you will grant them the peace and the patience to fall asleep

give them pleasant dreams of your kingdom it's in jesus name that i pray amen the solms were the

songbook of the people of god after the life of king david they were sung some three thousand years ago by men and women who knew all about the miracles of god

these men and women may have even witnessed young dav slay Goliath with a single stone.
