Millions of people are affected by insomnia in America. Are you one of them?
I am a firm believer in the Word of God. There are times when sleep is withheld from me for a reason. I lay in bed and shut my eyes, but I can never drift off. When this happens I know that the LORD is wanting to talk to me. It's then that I pray.
If you're just laying there watching the clock you may as well pray. Read some scriptures and talk to God. Prayer and meditation always works for me. When I turn my mind off and start praying I'm always led by the Spirit in the word to read what the LORD is wanting me to grasp. I keep a prayer journal next to me to jot down whatever I'm given during those moments of meditation.
"When you lie down, you shall not be afraid: Yea, you shall lie down, and your sleep shall be sweet"
Proverbs 3:24
Instead of turning on television try picking up the word of God and read it for awhile and then pray. This always refreshes me. Even if you don't suffer from insomnia as millions of others do, there may be times when you're worried about a matter and mulls over it as soon as the lights goes off. Instead of worrying....pray. Prayer Works!
Turn it all over to Jesus and let Him handle it. Besides...He promised you sleep..."And that it will be sweet"!
