At the end of the day, when we have been poured out, is a perfect time to give thanks to Our Lord. Whether small child or elderly, the demands of the day consume our strength. Yet, to end the day in prayer - giving thanks that He was our strength for the day and He is our Sustainer.
Evening prayer is both practical and wise. Setting time aside to have a conversation with God, who is personal and close, is an important part of our Christian journey.
The six prayers we chose for bedtime are meant to be more than wrote learning of prayer, but rather to build the spiritual muscles to talk with Jesus each evening.
"Father in heaven hear my prayer, Keep me in thy loving care.
Be my guide in all I do and bless all those who love me too."
"Father, now the night has come, all my work and play are done.
This has been a happy day, now I come to you and pray.
Bless the children everywhere, keep us in your loving care
while we sleep and while we wake, bless us all for Jesus' sake."
"Dear God, I thank you for your care. You've been right with me everywhere
at school, at play, You're by my side. My special Friend, my loving Guide.
And when the sun has said goodbye and little stars shine in the sky
You're still with me, not far above, Right in my heart for You Are Love. Amen"
"Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
Guide me gently through the night, and wake me with the morning light."
"Father, we thank Thee for the night and for the pleasant morning light,
For rest and food and loving care, and all that makes the world so fair.
Help us to do the things we should, to be to others kind and good.
In all we do in work and in play, to grow more loving everyday."
"The day is past and over. All thanks, O Lord, to Thee!
O Jesus keep me safe tonight and wake me with the morning light. Amen."
