- 0:18Speaker 1: you into true peace and deep rest, which are both
- 0:22Speaker 1: gifts God desires to give you. Before we begin, let's
- 0:28Speaker 1: get any distractions out of the way. Make sure the
- 0:32Speaker 1: lights are low and you're in a comfortable position, not
- 0:36Speaker 1: too hot and not too cold. If you'd like to
- 0:40Speaker 1: find some calming music on the Abide app, or simply
- 0:45Speaker 1: enjoy the quiet, don't worry about trying to fall asleep.

- 1:07Speaker 1: What better way to fall asleep than while hearing God's
- 1:11Speaker 1: sweet promises. As we prepare to begin, take a moment
- 1:18Speaker 1: to name any worries that are weighing you down. Don't
- 1:23Speaker 1: be ashamed of your anxiety, offer it to God. Remember
- 1:29Speaker 1: that Jesus said that you could cast your cares on him.
- 1:34Speaker 1: Picture your worries like rocks and a backpack. Take them
- 1:39Speaker 1: out one by one and hand them to Jesus. If
- 1:46Speaker 1: those worries show up in your backpack again, that's okay.
- 1:51Speaker 1: Just give them to Jesus again. He is our ever
- 1:56Speaker 1: present help in times of trouble. He does not grow weary,
- 2:03Speaker 1: and he desires to give you his peace. Having surrendered
- 2:11Speaker 1: your worries and fears to God, feel the lightness in
- 2:14Speaker 1: your spirit. You don't have to carry those things anymore.
- 2:19Speaker 1: You're free of them. Feel the weight gone from your shoulders.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Feel the muscles of your neck and back loosen and relax,
- 2:31Speaker 1: free of the burden they were carrying. Notice your breath.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Don't judge it, just notice it. Is it shallow or deep? Now?
- 2:45Speaker 1: As you breathe out, surrender more of your worries to God.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Feel your tension moved through your body and out with
- 2:57Speaker 1: your breath. As you exhale, then breathe in God's peace.
- 3:04Speaker 1: Feeling it move through your body and expanding inside of you.
- 3:11Speaker 1: Feel the relaxation in your shoulders deepen as you breathe
- 3:15Speaker 1: out the tension and breathe in God's peace. Keep breathing
- 3:22Speaker 1: out the tension and in the peace of God, as
- 3:27Speaker 1: I read to you from Psalm for answer me when
- 3:33Speaker 1: I call to you, my Righteous God, give me relief
- 3:40Speaker 1: from my distress. Have mercy on me and hear my prayer.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Know that the Lord has set apart his faithful servant
- 3:52Speaker 1: for himself. The Lord hears when I call to him. Tremble,
- 3:59Speaker 1: and you not sin when you are on your beds,
- 4:04Speaker 1: search your hearts and be silent. Offer the sacrifices of
- 4:11Speaker 1: the righteous and trust in the Lord. God. You answer
- 4:19Speaker 1: when we call to you, and you alone have the
- 4:23Speaker 1: power to answer prayers. Please have mercy on your child.
- 4:31Speaker 1: Relieve your child's distress and anxiety. Lift the burdens from
- 4:37Speaker 1: their shoulders, and help them to trust your power and
- 4:41Speaker 1: your providence, your deep love were them. I ask this
- 4:49Speaker 1: in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Feel the relaxation spread out from your shoulders and back
- 5:05Speaker 1: into your arms and deep inside your chest. Feel each
- 5:11Speaker 1: individual muscle loosen, continuing to breathe out your tension and
- 5:19Speaker 1: in God's peace. Let your awareness of God's mercy be
- 5:25Speaker 1: stronger than any other thought in your mind. Let's pray
- 5:31Speaker 1: these words from Psalm three cover you like a blanket.
- 5:37Speaker 1: But you Lord are a shield around me, my glory,
- 5:42Speaker 1: the one who lifts my head high. I call out
- 5:47Speaker 1: to the Lord, and he answers me. From his holy mountain.
- 5:53Speaker 1: I lie down in sleep. I wake again because the
- 5:57Speaker 1: Lord sustains me. From the Lord comes deliverance. May your
- 6:04Speaker 1: blessing be on your people. God, You are our protector
- 6:11Speaker 1: and defender and deliverer. Your children have nothing to fear
- 6:18Speaker 1: for you are with us. Thank you for hearing prayers
- 6:23Speaker 1: and answering them. Thank you for staying with your child
- 6:28Speaker 1: through the night, never leaving or forsaking them. Thank you
- 6:34Speaker 1: for the new mercies you have for this child when
- 6:37Speaker 1: you wake them in the morning. In the name of
- 6:40Speaker 1: the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I pray. Listen to
- 6:58Speaker 1: your breathing. Listen to your breathing, slow and steady. Breathe
- 7:05Speaker 1: out any tension. Breathe in God's peace. Slowly meditate on
- 7:13Speaker 1: these words. I will lie down and sleep and sleep
- 7:20Speaker 1: in peace for you alone. O Lord, make me dwell
- 7:27Speaker 1: in safety. Let them become your refrain. I will lie

- 7:45Speaker 1: down and sleep and sleep in peace for you alone,
- 7:53Speaker 1: O Lord, make me dwell in safety. Let the rhythm
- 7:59Speaker 1: of that refrain become the rhythm of your heart. As
- 8:03Speaker 1: we hear these words from Psalm for Oh God, you
- 8:09Speaker 1: have declared me perfect in your eyes. You have always
- 8:15Speaker 1: cared for me in my distress. Hear me now as
- 8:19Speaker 1: I call again, have mercy on me. Hear my prayer.
- 8:27Speaker 1: The gladness you have given me is far greater than
- 8:31Speaker 1: the joy at harvest time. I will lie down in
- 8:36Speaker 1: peace and sleep, for though I am alone, Oh Lord,
- 8:43Speaker 1: you will keep me safe. Lord, you keep your child

- 34:17Speaker 1: a blanket, but you Lord are a shield. Around me,
- 34:24Speaker 1: my glory, the one who lifts my head high. I

- 1:20:42Speaker 1: you breathe out, surrender more of your worries to God.
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: Feel your tension move through your body and out with
- 1:20:54Speaker 1: your breath. As you exhale, then breathe in God's peace,
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: feeling it move through your body and expanding inside of you.
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: Feel the relaxation in your shoulders deepen as you breathe
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: out the tension and breathe in God's peace. Keep breathing

- 1:21:26Speaker 1: I read to you from Psalm for answer me when
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: I call to you, my Righteous God, give me relief
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: from my distress. Have mercy on me and hear my prayer.
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: Know that the Lord has set apart his faithful servant
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: for himself. The Lord hears when I call to him.
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: Tremble and do not sin. When you are on your beds,
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: search your hearts and be silent. Offer the sacrifices of
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: the righteous and trust in the Lord God. You answer
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: when we call to you, and you alone have the
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: power to answer prayers. Please have mercy on your child.
- 1:22:33Speaker 1: Relieve your child's distress and anxiety. Lift the burdens from
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: their shoulders, and help them to trust your power and
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: your providence. Your deep love were them. I ask this
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- 1:23:04Speaker 1: Feel the relaxation spread out from your shoulders and back
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: into your arms and deep inside your chest. Feel each
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: individual muscle loosen, continuing to breathe out your tension and
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: in God's peace. Let your awareness of God's mercy be
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: stronger than any other thought in your mind. Let's pray
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: these words from Psalm three cover you like a blanket.
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: But you Lord are a shield around me. My Glory,
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: the one who lifts my head high. I call out
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: to the Lord, and he answers me from his holy mountain.

- 1:25:08Speaker 1: your breathing. Listen to your breathing, slow and steady. Breathe
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: out any tension. Breathe in God's peace. Slowly meditate on
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: these words. I will lie down and sleep and sleep
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: in peace for you alone. Oh Lord, make me dwell
- 1:25:39Speaker 1: in safety. Let them become your refrain. I will lie
- 1:25:45Speaker 1: down and sleep and sleep in peace for you alone.
- 1:25:52Speaker 1: Oh Lord, make me dwell in safety. I will lie
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: down and sleep and sleep in peace for you alone.
- 1:26:06Speaker 1: O Lord, make me dwell in safety. Let the rhythm
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: of that refrain become the rhythm of your heart. As
- 1:26:17Speaker 1: we hear these words from Psalm for O God, you
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: have declared me perfect in your eyes. You have always
- 1:26:29Speaker 1: cared for me in my distress. Hear me now as
- 1:26:34Speaker 1: I call again, have mercy on me. Hear my prayer.
- 1:26:41Speaker 1: The gladness you have given me is far greater than
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: the joy at harvest time. I will lie down in
- 1:26:51Speaker 1: peace and sleep for though I am alone. O Lord,
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: you keep me safe. Lord, you keep your child safe
- 1:27:08Speaker 1: in peace, in comfort and rest and restoration. You desire
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: to give your child all good things. You hear your
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: child when they call to you, and you give them
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: gladness and joy. Now, Dear Father, lead your child into sleep.
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: Fill them with peace and a sense of safety. Allow
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: them to fuel your presence, to know that you are
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: near and that you are ever watchful. God of all comfort,

- 1:48:41Speaker 1: rocks and a backpack. Take them out one by one
- 1:48:48Speaker 1: and hand them to Jesus. If those worries show up

- 1:48:58Speaker 1: Jesus again. He is our ever present help in times

- 1:49:11Speaker 1: to give you his peace. Having surrendered your worries and

- 1:49:49Speaker 1: just notice it. Is it shallow or deep? Now as
- 1:49:55Speaker 1: you breathe out, surrender more of your worries to God.
- 1:50:01Speaker 1: Feel your tension move through your body and out with
- 1:50:06Speaker 1: your breath. As you exhale, then breathe in God's peace,
- 1:50:14Speaker 1: feeling it move through your body and expanding inside of you.

- 1:50:45Speaker 1: I call to you, my Righteous God, give me relief
- 1:50:51Speaker 1: from my distress. Have mercy on me and hear my prayer.

- 1:51:04Speaker 1: for himself. The Lord hears when I call to him.
- 1:51:11Speaker 1: Tremble and do not sin. When you are on your beds,
- 1:51:17Speaker 1: search your hearts and be silent. Offer the sacrifices of
- 1:51:24Speaker 1: the righteous, and trust in the Lord God. You answer
- 1:51:33Speaker 1: when we call to you, and you alone have the
- 1:51:38Speaker 1: power to answer prayers. Please have mercy on your child.
- 1:51:45Speaker 1: Relieve your child's distress and anxiety, Lift the burdens from
- 1:51:51Speaker 1: their shoulders, and help them to trust your power and
- 1:51:56Speaker 1: your providence, your deep love for them. I ask this
- 1:52:04Speaker 1: in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- 1:52:16Speaker 1: Feel the relaxation spread out from your shoulders and back
- 1:52:21Speaker 1: into your arms, and deep inside your chest. Feel each
- 1:52:28Speaker 1: individual muscle loosen, continuing to breathe out your tension and
- 1:52:36Speaker 1: in God's peace. Let your awareness of God's mercy be
- 1:52:42Speaker 1: stronger than any other thought in your mind. Let's pray
- 1:52:48Speaker 1: these words from Psalm three cover you like a blanket.
- 1:52:55Speaker 1: But you Lord are a shield around me. Glory the
- 1:53:01Speaker 1: one who lifts my head high. I call out to
- 1:53:06Speaker 1: the Lord, and he answers me from his holy mountain.
- 1:53:12Speaker 1: I lie down in sleep. I wake again because the
- 1:53:16Speaker 1: Lord sustains me. From the Lord comes deliverance. May your
