GOOD EVENING! BEFORE YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES TONIGHT, LET GO OF WHAT YOU CANNOT CHANGE!

Scripture: Psalm 4:8 (KJV)

"I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety."

Good evening, everyone!

Another day is coming to a close. Some of you are smiling because today was productive, fulfilling, and encouraging. Others are wondering how you managed to get through it.

And then there are those who are already thinking about tomorrow's problems before they've finished dealing with today's!

May I ask you a question?

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU WENT TO BED WITHOUT CARRYING THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD ON YOUR SHOULDERS?

You know, we Christians have an unusual habit. We tell everyone to trust God, cast their cares upon Him, and believe His promises.

Then we go home, climb into bed, and spend half the night worrying about the very things we told everyone else to give to the Lord!

Now, don't get upset with me. I've been there myself!

But here's something I've learned over the years:

IF GOD CAN RUN THE UNIVERSE WITHOUT MY HELP, SURELY HE CAN HANDLE MY PROBLEMS WHILE I'M ASLEEP!

Think about that.

The Lord doesn't need you awake all night to keep the sun rising, the planets moving, or His promises intact.

And He certainly doesn't need your anxiety to accomplish His will.

First Peter 5:7 reminds us:

"Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you."

Not some of your cares. Not just the little ones. ALL of them!

Tonight, forgive someone. Release a disappointment. Stop rehearsing yesterday's mistakes. Stop imagining tomorrow's disasters.

And while you're at it, thank God for the blessings you were too busy to notice today.

A Closing Prayer:

Father, thank You for bringing us through another day. Forgive our shortcomings, calm our troubled minds, and bring peace to every home represented by those reading this message. Watch over our children, our families, the sick, the lonely, and those who have nowhere safe to sleep tonight. May Your presence surround us, and may we awaken tomorrow with renewed strength and gratitude. In Jesus' name, Amen.

GOOD NIGHT! GOD IS STILL ON THE THRONE, AND HE DOESN'T WORK SHIFTS!
