God, forgive me for worrying. You have this under control. Laying awake and thinking hard about all of this is not going to change the outcome. Help me to relax now and get some powerful sleep in the next hour before everyone is awake. Help me not to be grouchy today because I haven't slept all night. And please watch over our little ones as they are getting ready for bed and going to sleep. Protect them from harm. Keep them warm and safe and minister to their hearts. I know that even though they may not be getting one on one attention, You are there with them. Whisper in their ears that You love them. Please talk to them and tell them Your stories. Help them to feel your touch. Would you sing to them for me? I know that You can do all of this. You can make their minds whole by Your love and tenderness. They are first Yours. You love them more than I ever can. Help me to always remember this and to trust Your care and protection. You are Father to the fatherless. As they go to sleep, please be their Daddy and rock them.
Amen.
