Prayer for September 26, 2025

I love it, O God, when our bodies tell us that we need to rest and we sleep past the normal time we wake up.  It is especially wonderful when we don’t have to be somewhere and can let us have the full amount of rest we need. Help us to know when we need rest beyond our normal times and to know when the gift of a siesta is needed.  May we see the value of a well-rested mind and the release of all our worries that can come during sleep.  May we see the value of Sabbath as well and find ways to refresh ourselves.  Let your Spirit guide us now and always.  Amen
