Night-night

Lord, it’s been a busy few days. And I have a busy few days coming. I find myself saying lately, a lot, is it okay if… and I have been trying to change my wording, be more definitive, say, I am…whatever. I am feeling, I am going to…I intend to… But tonight, may I just say, is it okay if…I just lay down, go to bed a few minutes early? If You were standing here in person, I mean a person I could see, and hug, like Pete, say, I would be giving You a hug right about now and asking if You minded if we talked again tomorrow, and I just went to bed.

And what do you think I would say?

Honestly, I think You would react like Pete does sometimes: why would you ask that? Of course it is okay! If you are tired, lay down! It’s usually midnight by the time it’s bedtime. But I could use the extra half hour sleep.

You could use way more sleep than that. Go. Rest. I Am watching over you, never forget that. Sleep in Peace, little one. Be very aware you are very loved.
