This episode rests in Psalm 13:3 and shows them that God brings the light back, giving hope, strength, and peace right where they feel low. Before sleep, you could ask God together to fill their heart with His warm light, like sunshine slowly filling a room. Then let that warmth settle over them as they drift off.
