Welcome to this Abide Sleep sleep story I'm Tyler boss I will read Psalm 119 verse verse

you will hear that you are in the presence of someone who thought about the Bible

a lot the offer of this

chapter is unknown but some have suggested it may have been Ezra the priest written

at the time that the temple had been rebuilt many believe King David is the author

King David treasured and loved the holy text he knew

the Bible or at least as much of the Bible has existed in his time he had probably

committed vast sections of it to memory may you rest in these deep truths and find comfort in them let me pray over you

father you are so good to us you are so kind to your people you give us a breath each

day and the moment that breath is taken away we

reside with you get this dear one not just the knowledge of your commands but the

deep understanding that brings about changed hearts help them not to be simply hearers of the word, but one who listens

effectively and lives the word. Help this child of yours hunger for you, comfort and protect

them as they sleep, and may your Holy Spirit fill them throughout

the night in Jesus name amen Psalm 119 blessed are those whose ways are

blameless who walk according to the law of the Lord blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the Lord.

Blessed are those who keep his statutes, and seek him with all their heart.

They do no wrong, but follow his ways.

You have laid down precepts that are to be fully obeyed.

O that my ways were steadfast in obeying your decrees.
