God grants sleep

“In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat— for he grants sleep to those he loves.” (Psalm 127:2 NIV)

 Your sleep will be sweet

“When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.” (Prov. 3:24 NIV)

Therefore

“Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.” (Psalm 91:1 NIV)

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matt. 11:28-30 NIV)
