Peaceful sleep amidst danger

"I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the LORD sustained me." (Psalm 3:5)

David did not sleep in his comfortable bed at home, but was surrounded by enemies while fleeing from his son Absalom. Yet his sleep was peaceful, and he awoke safely because he trusted in the Lord. The Lord never fails those who trust in Him. David had a peaceful sleep amidst danger because the Lord sustained him.

Likewise, each morning when I wake up, I can testify:

"I woke up this morning because the Lord sustained me."
