Psalms 127:1-2

Reflect

The word “sorrows” can also mean anxiety. Many of us experience anxiety and feelings of worry. King Solomon helps us see God’s desire to take care of us, give us peace, and help us sleep knowing He’s protecting and providing for us. There is nothing greater we can do for our physical health than get quality sleep. Staying up late and cutting into our sleep doesn’t help us. Worrying about what’s streaming or on social media doesn’t help us. Not only does God want to give our minds peace, He wants to give our bodies rest so we can be optimally healthy in Him.
