This is a verse that I've always liked. Some time ago that verse was mentioned in a bible study I did that talked about the verses surrounding it, where David is talking about his enemies surrounding him. But - he is able to sleep knowing God sustains him. So true that we can be anxious and stressed and can't sleep, but with the knowledge of God being in control, we are able to rest.
This picture and scripture right here needs to be posted on our bathroom mirrors so we can think of God's goodness every single day when we wake up. Love this!!
And wasn't that the most wonderful feeling! I do not often have trouble sleeping...but when the Lord gives me a wonderful, deep sleep all night - amazing!!
Yes, Jennifer. It certainly is a wonderful feeling! Each morning when I wake up, regardless of how I've slept, I am quick to thank the Lord for sustaining me through the night. xx
