Flooding Your Bed with Tears?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who at night flood their bed with tears. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Ever cry yourself to sleep?
Around the world, there are those who don’t know where their next meal is coming from; there are victims of abuse who feel alone and abandoned; and there are people caught in the middle of war. God sees each individual.
In Psalm 6:6-9 (ESV) the psalmist pours out his heart:
“I am weary with my moaning;
every night I flood my bed with tears;
I drench my couch with my weeping.
My eye wastes away because of grief;
it grows weak because of all my foes.
Depart from me, all you workers of evil,
for the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping.
The Lord has heard my plea;
the Lord accepts my prayer.”
By the end, the author is no longer hopelessness. He is confident. He knows God hears and accepts his prayers.
Before drifting off to sleep tonight, please pray for those crying themselves to sleep.
