Prayer of the Day

Father, the weekend is almost over, and I can feel Monday standing at the door. Before I let it in, I want to talk to You.

You already know my week. You have seen the meetings I am dreading, the conversations I keep rehearsing, the deadlines, the appointments, and the things that will go wrong that I cannot see yet. None of it will surprise You.

So I hand You my calendar, Lord. Every square of it. Go ahead of me into each day and be there when I arrive.

Take the Sunday-night worry that creeps in at this hour and trade it for Your peace. Help me sleep tonight like someone whose week is already in good hands — because it is.

Give me strength for Monday, patience for Wednesday, and gratitude by Friday. And whatever this week holds, hold me.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

Lord, give me sleep tonight — real rest, the kind You designed my body to need and my heart to receive.

Slow my breathing. Loosen my shoulders. Take the day's noise out of my ears.

You give sleep to those You love, so I'll stop trying to earn it and simply receive it.

Watch over me until morning.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
