"When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet"-Proverbs 3:24 (NIV).
"Now I lay me down to sleep; I pray the Lord my soul to keep" is the well known bedtime prayer of children. Sleeping children look so peaceful...like little angels. It's comforting to think our Heavenly Father looks at us in the same way. Praise the Lord who sustains us as we sleep (Psalm 3:5) and instructs our hearts during the night (Psalm 16:7). He sings over us and we awake with His song (Psalm 42:8), for He grants sleep to those He loves (Psalm 127:2). A rain shadow is when a tall mountain protects the land on the lee side from the coming storms. The lee side is the sheltered side...the side resting in the shadow. "Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty (Psalm 91:1). Sweet dreams!
