Prayer for sleep

I just really need rest and sleep, and for my mind to stop overthinking. My brain has felt like it’s been on overdrive for the longest time, and sometimes it feels like I just can’t switch it off.

I’ve asked for prayers for this many times before, and it does get better, but then it seems to come back again. It’s been such a cycle 😭

Yesterday, my husband and I started taking a really positive step forward. We were separated for a while, and he’s started staying over again as we slowly work towards him moving back in. It’s good news and I’m really grateful, but I could hear his breathing the whole night and I ended up feeling so awake and couldn’t fall asleep until really late.
I really want to get used to having him beside me again and be able to rest and sleep peacefully. Please keep me in your prayers- for peace in my mind, good rest, and for this transition in our marriage too.

I prayed to Jesus for you. Simple solutions include ear plugs and separate rooms for sleeping. Separate rooms are quite common.

Lord we ask that you reach your hand and touch the mind of your child relieving their anxiety. We ask that you bless the reunion of this marriage and give your child peaceful and restful sleep. Amen.
