as we hear tonight's sleep story. Welcome to the sleep story from Abide, a Bible meditation to help you relax, release

the worries of the day, and fall asleep.

I'm Melissa.

Tonight's meditation is about finding strength, strength for you and your faith in God.

Perhaps you feel as though you don't have much strength.

It could be you feel weak and tired.

You're weary on your journey and you desperately need a boost of strength in your walk with God.

If this describes you, please know that you are not alone.

All of us at different times in our lives go through seasons when we feel drained, exhausted, and weak in

our faith.

This journey of life can be demanding, but the good news is we're not left to navigate on

our own.

We're not expected to travel through life on our own strength.

Tonight, you'll be greatly encouraged by the words of Jude, the brother of Jesus.

But before you hear his encouraging words, please take a moment to make yourself comfortable and clear your mind

from all distractions focus only on the presence of the Lord invite him to be with you.

Take a slow, deep breath in and let it out.

Relax your body and feel every muscle loosen as you rest securely in the Lord.
