Here I am (1 Samuel 3:4; NIV).
The life of every living thing is in his hand (Job 12:10; NLT).
Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest (Matthew 11:28; NLT).
You have brought me into your presence forever (Psalm 41:12; NLT).
*****************************
Lord God,
I can’t sleep.
Here I am,
In your hand,
With nothing
To do,
And nothing
To say.
So many
Are sleepless;
I pray
For us all:
May we rest
In your presence,
Until break
Of day.
