“Sleep is not an incidental detail in scripture. It is scattered across the entire Bible, from start to finish, and it is inherently tied to multiple individuals, significant events, key conversations, spiritual truths, and overarching periods in time and history.

“When we face challenges and questions, we should not trust in ourselves, follow our own hearts, or create a litany of backup plans. Instead, we should bow before the Lord, declare our belief in Him, and fully rely upon the assurances of His Word. No matter what comes to pass, we will always be safe in the presence of the Lord, and we can rest peacefully within this truth.”
