Dear Lord, You were the one that made the moon and the stars to shine by night and gave us the beautiful hours of the night in which to replenish our strength, repair our bodies and refresh our souls.
Help me I pray, to take advantage of this God-given time, when the weariness of the day gives way to a peaceful night’s sleep and the general renewal of our of minds.
Help me I pray, to get to bed at a wise time and not to retire to bed too late. Help me to use this time to full advantage and not to sit up into the small hours of the morning, but gain full benefit of a complete nights rest, so that I may wake refreshed and get up early, to Your praise and glory.
Help me I pray to get to bed at a good time. This I ask in Jesus' name,
Amen.
