Sleep in Heavenly Peace
In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety.—Psalm 4:8 (NIV)
But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.—Matthew 5:44 (NIV)
Pray for those who persecute you. Praying for someone that isn’t good to you is not easy— especially when you are angry or hurt—but it is exactly what Jesus requests of you in the above verse. By sincerely praying for the worst people in your life, you grow closer to God.
Father, today I pray for the people that have not been best to me—I open my heart to you and sincerely wish them the best.

In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety.—Psalm 4:8 (NIV)

My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.—2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)

I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.—Philippians 4:11 (NIV)
