God's Peace When You Can't Sleep

by Christina Vinson

God’s Peace for When I Can’t Sleep is a wonderful means for calming the mind and soothing the spirit during drawn-out restless nights. 

Find Comfort and Peace during Long Sleepless Nights

Every evening, millions of people crawl into bed and struggle either to go to sleep or stay asleep through the quiet hours of the night. What's worse, lying awake during those dark and silent times can bring on a busy mind and anxious thoughts that make sleeping seem even more impossible. Instead of recharging and resting peacefully before the alarm rings, the early morning sunbeams are met with exhaustion and difficulty focusing.

God's Peace for When I Can't Sleep is a wonderful means for calming the mind and soothing the spirit during those drawn-out periods of restlessness. Short and simple anecdotes, quotes, Bible verses, blessings, and prayers help direct ones thoughts toward a serene and tranquil place of rest, a place full of God's presence of peace. It's the perfect companion to keep within reach for any time of night or early morning hours.

This is one of my favorite devotionals. I’ve read it through twice so far, and I am sure I will read it again in the future. It really does fill you with peace. There is a topic for just about anything that might keep you up at night. The chosen verses, there are 3 per devotional, are applicable and will really soothe your soul. This devotional is a wonderful reminder that God never sleeps, He is always with us, He hears us and knows what we are feeling and will comfort us.

Fabulous! Absolutely fabulous! The language usage is simple and inviting, creating a peaceful ambiance. The best way I can describe the language used by the author is, that is the language a loving parent uses to comfort their child. The structure of the book is also conducive to meditation and serenity. Chapters are short and to the point, no guessing time, no long explanations either. Just a description of the situation backed up by the Word of God, prayer, blessing, and praise. So you go to sleep after you have praised and thank God for His goodness:BRILLIANT!

Lovely sentiment (and even lovelier cover art,) but so generalized and hyper-sentimental one could hardly take it seriously. Still, not a terrible thing to keep on one's nightstand if you're going through a rough patch.

A lovely little book. Each chapter is devoted to a different reason why you might be struggling to sleep, with the last chapter being you just can't!

A sleepless night really shows us how much we rely on rest.

Each chapter ends with Bible verses, a prayer, a blessing and a worship.

It's good at reminding the reader how much peace God can bring to every situation.

I think my only criticism would be it's a little too simplistic and spiritual. We are still creatures of body and mind and sometimes the solution to sleepless nights requires a solution in those areas. Too much caffeine? Or sugar? Not enough exercise? Perhaps you need counselling etc.?
Being told 'Just trust God' and pray isn't always as easy as this book makes it sound.

However, I appreciate this book isn't trying to tackle every aspect of sleeplessness. Just part of it. And maybe we tend to focus on the spiritual last anyway...

A helpful little book for those who might be struggling.

I read this book from cover to cover, and it was truly a blessing. It’s one I’ll definitely keep and return to, especially since I can choose whatever topic I'm feeling in that moment. I love the additional verses, blessing and praise sections after each section.

I really enjoyed this. It gave me some ideas of things to do when my mind wouldn't turn off.

This is a book that even though you've read it through, you can always go back, because everyone experiences restless nights.

[Renee · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book isn't one your read from start to finish. It's the kind of book you leave on your bed stand for when you're tossing and turning late at night. I love the short letter written just to you followed by a Bible verses, a prayer, and benediction. If you're stressed or distressed a lot of the time, I would recommend buying this book. Plus, it's pretty. :)

Good Book

This is an excellent book if you need a" God" pill to let you fall asleep.
But some of the subjects l didn't l need, so book ended up being shorter
for me. But l would tell people to read this book.
