My nightly visitor

Written: Wednesday 21st August, 2013

For the past few days I've been sick, I've been dreaming about him - every night, and even when I sleep in the mornings and afternoons. Could it be that God is telling me something? Or is is just me selfishly dreaming of my hearts desire?

The thing about these dreams though, is that I did not force them. So far, each time I went to sleep, I closed my eyes expecting nothing. And yet, each time, he appeared. I don't know how many times I've actually gone to sleep wishing I'd see him in my dreams, but didn't... So, to have this happen now without even trying is a real surprise for me. I don't know how many times I've awaken with a smile on my face. What if I had it plastered on the whole duration of my sleep?! Oh no... If they only knew what I was dreaming about!

All I can say is, I'm glad he haunts my dreams now, but I'd also love to see him in reality more often. I hardly do in school and I only go to church every other Sunday, and even then I'm never sure if he's also there. Nevertheless, I shall close my eyes tonight and pray I see him again, for it is he who gets me through the anguished nights, when the pain in my stomach becomes almost unbearable. Dear God, please let me see my nightly visitor again tonight.
