Now lay in a relaxed position.  Become aware that you are being firmly supported by your bed.  Breathe deeply and slowly.  Relax and feel the weight of your body sinking down.  Realize that you are in the hands of God.  Release your cares and concerns over to God and be at peace as you drift off to sleep.  

If you are having a hard time quieting your mind, simply memorize this prayer and repeat it over and over erasing all else from your mind.

The peace of God be over me to shelter me,

Under me to uphold me,

About me to protect me,

Behind me to direct me,

Ever with me to save me.

This concludes the END OF THE DAY Pause for Prayer.  Don't forget to start your day tomorrow by returning for a MORNING Pause for Prayer
