Need a Prayer for When You Can’t Sleep?
We love the ministry of Every Moment Holy! Save this prayer for the next time you are battling restlessness! "O Christ Who Is My Rest, This tension of body, and racing of mind, and clamoring of heart afford me no peace in this night. Unable to sleep I would yet make use of my restlessness, O Lord. Amidst doubt, anxiety, uncertainty, I would learn to practice a more constant awareness of your presence, directing heart and thought and petition you. Lay your hand upon my brow, O Lord, and bid me calm. I cannot know every reason why sleep so evades me, and yet you have made me yours and in that knowledge I would know comfort as a child cradled in a mother's arms, who sleeping or walking cares not for which momentary state, but only for that sweet, unspoken communion of knowing they are held in the soothing strength of a great love that is their precious nurture and their perfect peace. So even in haggard sleeplessness, I would yet recognize my utter dependence upon you, remembering that you are with me whether I sleep or not. I do pray that sleep will [...]

How to: Witness Without Words
In an increasingly noisy world where quietness is really hard to find, here are a few of our favorite ways to witness without words! 1. LOVE people The world can be so negative and evil, change the script by showing love. How? Love the way Jesus loves us. (Romans 5:8) 2. SERVE people Use your hands to serve the people around you. Serving makes us "others focused", like Jesus. (Matthew 20:28) 3. PRAY for people But that requires words? Yes, we'll admit it.. this one does technically require words, but we'd encourage you to spend a few moments in the quietness of your own heart praying for the people around you. Your Starbucks barista, Target cashier, the woman jogging through your neighborhood, pray for them and know that God will move. (1 Thessalonians 5:17) 4. LISTEN to people Like we said, the world is SO loud. So taking a second to stop talking and start listening to those around you will show others that you care in a way that they’re probably not use to. The way Jesus cares. (James 1:19) 5. CONSIDER people When we choose to put other peoples needs before our own we are instantly set [...]
