Evening Blessings

Today did not destroy you and for that give thanks.

Allow your mind to rest on the ways God brought you through this day.

As you find a comfortable seated or lying position,

Let your body relax.

Ease the tension from your head,

Neck,

Arms,

And legs.

Let go of the worry of the day,

Allowing it to melt away.

With your mind only on your next breath,

Breathe deeply in through your nose and out of your mouth.

A few more times just like that.

Relax that breath and enjoy stillness for a moment.

If you haven't drifted off to sleep yet,

Recite these blessings with me.

Dear God for this day,

For allowing me to be protected,

For allowing me to overcome any challenges and enjoy all the victories,

For allowing me to engage joyfully with others and have strength when others weren't as joyful.

Thank you for your guidance,

Your care,

And concern for setting me on a straight path.

Thank you for supplying my needs.

Next moment,

Reflect on everything God has done for you today.

If you are not finished,

Continue.

Rise,

Recite,

Thank you God,

Bring you a peaceful rest.
