I had a wonderful dream about baby girl last night.
I know you are thinking... yea so what!? But you see, I have never once had a good dream about our coming child until now. Most of the dreams turn into nightmares. A far too small and sickly baby, inconsolable shrieks and screams, dreams filled with fear, dread, and death. I was starting to think I was losing it despite all of the reassurance that bad dreams are completely "normal" during pregnancy. I was starting to wonder and question if maybe one of those terrible dreams was going to come true... or that maybe I was depressed! I mean not a single happy dream...
Until last night...
I dreamed that I was holding a bright and vibrant baby girl dressed in pink and wrapped in a white blanket with the cutest headband perfectly placed on her perfect head. She had dark hair and gloriously beautiful eyes. I felt nothing but joy for her and she seemed to be a peaceful presence in our home. I was staring down at her and she was staring up at me. Happy and healthy. All the things I've prayed for since the beginning of my pregnancy had come true. That's it... that was my whole dream...
I am not claiming that this was a prophetic dream, but you have no idea the encouragement that the Lord instilled in my heart. The joy and excitement that bubbled over as I awoke this morning and could feel her moving around... kicking and rolling, punching and squirming.
I pray the Lord encourages you today.
Love you all! Have a wonderful Friday!
