A gentle night prayer designed to bring peace, calm, and comfort to your heart before sleep. In the stillness of the night, it offers words of release from worry, guidance to trust God’s timing, and assurance of His protective presence.
Whether you are battling restless thoughts, carrying the weight of the day, or simply seeking a moment of stillness, this prayer helps you find serenity in God’s embrace.
Allow it to quiet your spirit, renew your strength, and prepare you for restful sleep and a hopeful tomorrow.

God, it’s late and everything’s quiet now, but my mind won’t stop racing. All the stuff from today—the things I’m worried about, the fears I haven’t said out loud, the questions I don’t have answers for—they’re all still swirling around in my head.
So I’m bringing them to You tonight because I know You’re bigger than all of this mess inside me.
Help me just breathe for a minute. Calm down whatever’s going on in my mind and take some of this weight off my shoulders. I need to hear You remind me that I’m not doing this alone.
Even when it feels dark and lonely, You’re here with me. You always have been.
I’m asking for some real peace tonight—the kind that helps me let go of what I can’t fix anyway. Help me trust that You’ve got the timing figured out, even when I don’t.
And give me whatever it takes to wake up tomorrow and face it with at least a little hope.
Keep the anxious thoughts and fears away tonight. Let Your peace settle over me like a calm, steady stream—something that just carries me into rest and safety.
Thanks for this night, for loving me no matter what, and for the fresh start that’s coming in the morning. I’m letting go and trusting You with all of it.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
