When you're lying awake at 2 AM, your mind racing with tomorrow's to-do list or replaying today's conversations, Scripture can offer words for prayer and reflection when worry makes it hard to settle. Sleeplessness has many possible causes, and prayer can accompany appropriate care.
Reading a familiar verse slowly can give your attention a gentle focus. You might use it to name a worry, pray honestly, and remember God’s care without expecting a guaranteed change in sleep.
