We join with you in this beautiful longing for the return of our Lord Jesus and we say with you, even so, come Lord Jesus. We share in that blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ Titus 2:13 and we remember the promise He who testifies these things says, Yes, I come quickly. Amen Yes, come, Lord Jesus Revelation 22:20. We encourage you to remain watchful and faithful as you wait, for we are told Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you do not expect, the Son of Man will come Matthew 24:44. Waiting for Him is not idle but calls us to live holy and godly lives, sharing His gospel and abiding in Him daily.
We also lift up your need for a good night's sleep before the Lord, for He cares about the rest He gives His children. We pray that you may cast all your worries on Him, because He cares for you 1 Peter 5:7 and that you will know the peace the psalmist describes I will both lay me down and sleep in peace, for you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety Psalm 4:8. We know it is vain to stay up late in anxious toil, for He gives sleep to His loved ones Psalm 127:2, so we pray the Lord will quiet your mind and body and grant you deep, restorative rest.
We bring your family before the throne of grace as well, asking for His protection, unity, and blessing upon each one. We pray that your household will be strengthened to serve Him, choosing as Joshua declared But as for me and my house, we will serve Yahweh Joshua 24:15.
We pray together now, Father in heaven, we thank You for this longing for the return of Your Son Jesus and we ask that You keep our hearts ready and our lamps burning as we await Him. Hasten the day of His coming according to Your perfect timing and use us to reach others with the hope of salvation through Jesus alone. Lord, we ask that You grant our friend peaceful and uninterrupted sleep tonight, guarding his heart and mind in Christ Jesus and renewing his strength. We speak Your blessing over his family, that You would keep them and make Your face to shine upon them. Yahweh bless you, and keep you. Yahweh make His face to shine on you, and be gracious to you. Yahweh lift up His face toward you, and give you peace Numbers 6:24-26. We ask all this in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ our Lord, amen.

We are grateful you shared these three requests with us. Your longing for Jesus to return, your desire for a good night's sleep, and your love for your family all matter to God and they matter to us.
Waiting for the Lord to come again can stir both hope and weariness, especially when daily life feels heavy. It is good to bring that hope to Him honestly, asking Him to keep your heart steady while you wait.
We also know how much broken sleep can affect everything, your mood, your energy, even your sense of peace. Sleep is such a basic gift, and when it is restless it touches every part of life. If difficult nights continue, please consider mentioning it to your doctor as well as bringing it to the Lord in prayer, so you have support for both body and spirit.
And we hear your care for your family. Families carry so much together, joys and burdens alike. If there are one or two specific needs weighing heaviest on you right now, it can help to share those with a pastor or a trusted believer who can pray with you by name and walk with you over time.
Father, we thank You for our friend who loves You and looks for Your Son's return. We ask for Your peace to guard their heart as they wait, for Your gift of restful sleep tonight, and for Your hand of protection and grace over their family. Draw each one closer to You and keep them in Your care. In Jesus' name, amen.

Beloved of All
Your longing for the return of our Lord Jesus is a most blessed sign, for wise are they who live habitually beneath the influence of the Second Advent, looking for and hasting unto the coming of the Son of God. We join our hearts with yours in that ancient prayer of the church, Even so, come, Lord Jesus. To desire His appearing is to love Him, and to love Him is to be always coming unto Him, as unto a living stone, coming for spiritual food and guidance and help and health, coming in one lifelong perpetual coming till we lie flat and square upon Christ.
Concerning your desire for a good night's sleep, remember that sleep is the gift of God, and so He giveth His beloved sleep. It is not merely that we lay our heads upon the pillow and compose ourselves, but the Lord Himself must give it. There is a rest which believers have now, for we who have believed do enter into rest, and Christ says, Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and ye shall find rest unto your souls. May the Lord grant you that sweet rest which belongs to those who trust Him, that quietness of heart which says, What my God appoints is best, and then may He add to it the gracious gift of bodily sleep, to refresh you for His service. For holy activity is itself a kind of rest when the heart abides in Christ.
For your family we will also plead with the Most High. Family prayer is the nutriment of family piety and the castle wherein God is honored in the household. If you have a place of family prayer, keep it with double zeal, and if it has been neglected, return unto it, for there the Lord delights to meet with His people. We pray that every member of your household may be drawn to come unto Christ at the first, and then to keep coming, that they may know the hope which is not found in ourselves but is found in Him whom God has provided to be the Saviour of such as we are.
Let us pray together. O Lord our God, we thank Thee for the blessed hope of the appearing of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ. Hasten that day, and keep this dear soul watching and waiting, not sleeping as do others, but sober and hopeful. Give now, we beseech Thee, the precious gift of sleep, for Thou givest Thy beloved sleep, and let the body be restored and the soul find rest in Thy Son. Bless this family, we pray Thee, turn every heart therein unto Thyself, establish Thy worship in their midst, and let Thy peace dwell under their roof. Bring them all into that perfect rest which remaineth for the people of God, where they shall serve Thee day and night and yet rest not day nor night in holy delight. Hear us for Jesus sake. Amen.
