Your mind has done enough for today.
Leave this 8-hour night prayer for overthinking playing quietly beside you as you sleep. This prayer is for the nights when your body is tired but your thoughts keep moving — replaying a conversation, reconsidering a decision, worrying about tomorrow, thinking about someone you love, or returning to something you cannot change tonight.
Through Scripture, gentle biblical reflection, prayer and long periods of quiet, this overnight prayer gradually moves the mind away from striving and towards the peace, presence and care of God.
