A Prayer for Rest When Tomorrow Feels Heavy
Sometimes tomorrow's responsibilities begin stealing today's rest. This prayer is for the night before an important decision, appointment, test, journey, presentation, or other demanding event.
Lord, tomorrow is already pressing on my mind. I know there are things I must face, prepare for, or decide, but I cannot live tomorrow tonight. Help me receive sleep as part of faithful preparation rather than wasted time. Remind me that rest is not irresponsibility. Give me what I need when morning comes: wisdom, courage, concentration, and grace. For now, loosen my grip on tomorrow and teach me to trust You with the hours I have not reached yet.
Amen.
Scripture: Matthew 6:34 Psalm 127:2
