You will be secure, because there is hope;
you will look about you and take your rest in safety.
(Job 11:18)
Hope is such a wonderful gift. It gets us through the worst of times and helps us look toward the future an not get bogged down in the present situation. We should be able to rest easy.....( I'm not saying that I'm always able to do this) ..... without worry and feel safe and secure in the hope the Lord has graciously given to us.

My people will live in peaceful dwelling places,
in secure homes,
in undisturbed places of rest.
(Isaiah 32:18)
This scripture is on my screen saver right now, which also shows a welcoming log bench placed under an Autumn tree, all shrouded in fog. Just looking at the scene brings a sense of peace and makes me want to take a seat on the bench and become part of the quietness. And someday.....I'll be living in that scene......:)

(Job 11:18)
No matter what direction my life takes, regardless of circumstances put before me, the hope of the Lord remains steadfast to calm and reassure me of my safety in His compassionate hands.

In peace I will lie down and sleep,
for you alone, LORD,
make me dwell in safety.
(Psalm 4:8)
This is one of those short and easy to memorize scriptures that provides comfort in tough times. I think our mind focuses on our troubles more at bedtime and keeps us from relaxing and finding sleep. Keep this scripture tucked away for troubled nights and it will help settle your mind and bring peace and rest.
