Little Shepherd edition—bedtime calm, big Shepherd.
The Lord is my shepherd
When the day felt loud or heavy, the Shepherd is still close. Grown-ups can sit longer in The Lord Is My Shepherd.
A shepherd stays with the sheep. He leads them to grass and quiet water. He does not leave when wolves howl far away. God is that kind of Shepherd for you.
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. Psalm 23:1 (KJV)
You do not have to fix tomorrow tonight. You can rest near Him. He has what you need.
Gentle question
What part of today felt heavy? Can you tell the Shepherd about it in one short sentence?
Short prayer together
Lord, You are my Shepherd. I am Your sheep. Keep me close tonight. Amen.
