Bedtime Prayer

A Bedtime Prayer for Anxiety-Night

If anxiety keeps you awake, this prayer is for you.

God, my mind will not stop. Every what-if is competing for space and I cannot find quiet. I know You are not the author of this fear. Take the weight of tomorrow out of my hands tonight. Let my sleep be a gift from You — deep, real, and free from dread.

Give it to God and close your eyes. He is already working. Amen.

When to pray this

Nighttime anxiety has its own character. The house is quiet, there is nothing left to distract you, and every unresolved thing lines up for a hearing. You are not going to solve any of it at 2 a.m., and trying is what keeps you awake. Hand it over, deliberately, and let tomorrow have its own strength.
