A Daily Devotion for Tuesday, February 28

Psalm 127:2

In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat-- for he grants sleep to those he loves.

To me, this Psalm is a reminder that God is behind all of our work, and is the one who provides true rest. We can't live in this world without doing the work of surviving. But we also need rest, and when we are resting in God's love and protection, we will truly be restored.

Father God, grant me rest when I sleep, and when I sit quietly with you. Help me to turn to you for rest, and not forget. Amen
