A very well-written three line poem about handing over our problems to God and He will solve it for us indefinitely, and we can rest in Him and know it will be done.

Last night I had a ton of anxiety. I need to learn that I can't control everything. Teach me how to do this. Lol. You did a great job and something I want to achieve one day

    Thank you for the honest review. I give my cares to the Lord and watch a soothing video or music like the one I have provided here just before bedtime. My husband prays over me when I am sick or stressed or if I ask him. This helps too.

Good read, sis. I loved the artwork as well. I am up very early just filling in some time before I go back to bed. A good exercise in correct grammar, no spags. Where's the prose?

Hello Sally, a short poem with a strong message. Inspired by the poem that so many children must have learned - When I lay me down to sleep - I pray the Lord my soul to keep..........! I like your input 'knowing God controls what I cannot' - Well said Sally - warm regards - love Dorothy xxx

Very beautiful spiritual writing Sally. Amazing I can so relate to this my mom taught me that prayer as a little girl and I faithfully say my prayers every night and that one is the one I still use. You have chosen nice artwork here. Well done. :)

Hello Sally.

This is a great poem about the trust in God that assures our peace.

Every night I pray for God to guard my soul while I sleep.

Psalm 4:8 KJV -- I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.

Z. PAL

The Lord sometimes puts us in a place where we get tired of trying to fight on our own. Simple poem, yet powerful. I'm sure it will bring comfort to those who struggle without the one who can safely keep us in the eye of the storm.

Yes, when we are weary this is exactly what Jesus tells us to do. To come to Him and He shall give us rest. Good choice of words. Also love the artwork, and the video reflects the peace ww find when we rest in our Lord. Enjoyed your entire presentation.
