NIGHT FEAR & SLEEP · FIVE DAYS
DAY 03
Thoughts at Midnight
“When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.”
Psalm 94:19
Reflection
Midnight thoughts lie about their size; at 3 a.m. every problem doubles. Consolation does not solve the problem — it right-sizes it until morning can.
PRAY
God, my midnight mind exaggerates. Bring Your consolation into the loop of thoughts I cannot stop, and hold my questions until daylight, when they shrink to their true size.
Amen.
DECLARE
Nothing is decided at 3 a.m.
TODAY'S PRACTICE
Keep paper by the bed: write the worry down once, and let the page hold it until morning.
