Evening prayer to be said before going to bed

Bless us with rest tonight, Jesus. Forgive us for the things we did today that didn't honor you. Thank you for loving us so much and knowing us all the way through. We need your help every day and we thank you for the strength you give us and for helping us to know that even difficult things are possible with you. Bless our family and our home and keep us safe all night. May your angels guard and watch over us, just as you promised.

You told us we are like sheep. And that you guide and guard us like a shepherd. You know our names and you make us feel special and loved. When we hurt, you help us feel better. Thank you, Jesus, for your good care. Thank you for the Bible and for teaching us things in life that help us grow. Bless the people in our world and help them know that you love them too. Thank you for all the people who help us so much: teachers, doctors, policemen, firefighters and many more.

Thanks for your good plan for our lives. Help us obey you and love you more and more. When we wake up in the morning, put a smile on our face and your purpose in our hearts, ready to start a new day. We love you, Jesus. Good night. In the precious name of Jesus, Amen.
