Now, relax your mind and body as we hear tonight's sleep story.

Hello, I'm Ben Little, and welcome to this bedtime story.

A story designed to comfort and to soothe your soul as you drift into a deep sleep.

As you listen to this story, allow God to speak to your heart and any wounds from

the day.

Invite the Holy Spirit to enter into this time of restorative sleep.

Tonight, as you lie down to sleep, you will hear a key truth from God's Word that reminds you of who Christ is and of who you are in light of that.

This series called I Am is written to offer you thoughtful affirmations and reminders of who you are in Christ.

Simple statements that allow your heart to remember and affirm what is most true. May you rest

peacefully as you are reminded tonight that you are forgiven by God.

The affirmation you will rest in tonight is, I am forgiven.

As you end your day, you may feel restless or disappointed by the events of your day.

You may be reflecting on past decisions and wishing you had done things differently.

But no matter what choices you made today or in the past, this truth remains.

You are forgiven.

Settle in for the bedtime story and for a good night's sleep. Get comfortable by closing your eyes and resting your head on your pillow.

Let the weight of your shoulders and body fully sink into your bed.
