Preparing for Sleep

 

“By day the Lord directs his love”

—Psalm 42:8a

To begin this blog post, please allow me to ask you these questions: “After you pray, how do you end your day? You’ve spent some time talking to God and reviewing your day. You’ve settled in, adjusted your pillow, snuggled into the covers, now what’s next?”

I have a suggestion for you and me. But first, let’s consider these words from Psalm 42:8:

By day the Lord directs his love, at night his song is with me—a prayer to the God of my life.

I strongly believe that God wants our nighttime sleep to be peaceful, restful, and restorative. So, here’s my suggestion:

One of the best things we can do as you prepare to drift off to sleep is to use our SmartPhone, or tablet, or laptop computer to listen to the late Bill Pearce and his wonderful program “Nightsounds.”

“Nightsounds” is surely one of the very best nighttime radio programs ever produced. It features one of the most amazing musicians and Christian radio personalities. From the opening strains of Claude Debussy’s Beau Soir to the closing notes 30 minutes later, you will find this program relaxing, peaceful, and enjoyable.

Let’s try it for just one night. If you join me in this experience, I think you will find it just the perfect way to drift off to a peaceful and restful night’s sleep. To begin this nightime journey with me, just click the link below.
