No Barking Dog

All of a sudden I was awake! I looked at the digital clock on the chest-of-drawers... 2;04AM. What woke me I pondered? I listened – – – no barking dog. I lay real still and listen again – – – no rain or thunder. What?? And then I knew, I felt His presence. The warmth of the Holy Spirit engulfed me. "Hello Holy Spirit", I whispered. I felt His acknowledgment and I knew He wanted to fellowship with me. I lay there in the sweet stillness of the moment. We talked about God's love for me and my loved ones and His desire to bless and protect us. He told me how Father God is moved by my every prayer for my children and grandchildren and others. He told me that God wanted me to cast all my care on Him because he cares for me. He told me to pay special attention to the events going on throughout the world today. He also told me He would teach me about the glory of God and the wonder of His grace. We fellowshipped for a little longer and I felt such a deep overwhelming peace. He told me to go back to sleep and that He would always be there because He never slept nor slumbered. Wow, what an amazing God we have who loves us more than we can ever imagine.
