Middle-of-the-Night Prayers

This week I have started a new routine. One that allows me to sleep in for an hour, but one that has me staying up an hour later. I'm not adjusting well. I think I'm missing my "this is when I'm tired so I can fall asleep easily" mark so that by the time I go to bed, I'm wide awake. It's made for very restless nights.

Last night I woke up in the middle of the night realizing that I had not prayed for the support packages that I had sent to several churches. I awoke heart broken that I had done something without the Lord. Then, I started praying like crazy. I asked for God's forgiveness and then asked Him to bring in the needed support and even bless the packages I had sent to the churches.

After a few minutes of this, I started thinking... and after a few more minutes, I realized that it had been a dream... not the praying but the sending of the packages.

I've been known to pray for characters in books and in movies... and now, dreams. Oh, my!
