Psalms 127:2
It is useless for you to work so hard
from early morning until late at night,
anxiously working for food to eat;
for God gives rest to his loved ones.
Psalms 3:5
I lay down and slept,
yet I woke up in safety,
for the Lord was watching over me.
Psalms 121:3-5
He will not allow your foot to be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.
Behold, He who keeps Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
The Lord is your keeper;
The Lord is your shade at your right hand.
Your Father in heaven will give you rest. When you lay your weary head on your pillow pray for sleep.
Whilst you sleep he watches over you, he doesn't sleep and is working his purpose.
Rest and sleep is so important, without it we struggle and can't cope.
Isaiah 40:28-29
Have you not known?
Have you not heard?
The everlasting God, the Lord,
The Creator of the ends of the earth,
Neither faints nor is weary.
His understanding is unsearchable.
He gives power to the weak,
And to those who have no might He increases strength.
Matthew 11:28-30
Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
Jeremiah 31:25-26
I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint.”
At this I awoke and looked around. My sleep had been pleasant to me.
