Wondering at night

The big questions come out once the light is off.

Psalm 4 · An Evening Prayer

“In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.”Psalm 4:8 · BSB

More psalms for when you feel wondering at night

Wondering at night sits in the Bedtime psalms — 6 of the 150 in all. See every one.

Someone in the Bible felt this too

Elijah the Prophet1 Kings 17–19Elijah is so worn out he asks to die, and God's answer is not a lecture — it is sleep, then food, then more sleep. Rest as the first kindness.
