“Do not be anxious about anything, but in prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:6-7)
Suggested Prayer/Activity: Sleeplessness
A lonely time of anxious thoughts
well into the night
with why’s, what ifs, sorrows, regrets
only in my sight.
Toss and turn, up and down
but sleep does not come.
my worried brain is restless
as hours stretch til dawn.
OR
I thank God for all He’s done
carefully guiding my day.
I think of all His blessings
the people sent my way.
I grab my bedside rosary
and offer some poor soul
the well-worn prayers I cherish
and gently sleep takes hold.
