Before Sleep Prayer: Guided by John 3:16

Dear Heavenly Father,

As I lay down to rest tonight, I thank You for loving the world so much that You gave Your one and only Son. I am in awe of the sacrifice Jesus made for me, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Lord Jesus, thank You for coming into this world for me, for enduring the cross so that I might have eternal life. Your love is beyond measure, and I am humbled by Your grace.

Father, as I reflect on today, help me to see Your hand in every moment. Strengthen my faith to believe fully in You, to trust in Your promises, and to rest in the light of Your love every day. I am so grateful that I do not have to perish but can have everlasting life with You.

Lord, tonight I bring my worries and fears to You. Please give me peace and comfort. Guide me to share Your incredible love with others, to be a reflection of Your grace and truth. Let my life be a testament to the power of Your love.

Thank You, Lord, for Your incredible gift. I praise You and exalt You, Jesus, for Your unfailing love and mercy. Keep me in Your care tonight and always. May I wake up renewed, ready to live another day for You.

In Your precious name, I pray. Amen.
