4/24/09 Mysterious night

A warm morning.  Finally spring weather and no rain--my hair thanks you.  But backing up.  I prayed and prayed last night.  I prayed with all my heart.  I mean I prayed and I also did some reading and tried some new things.  

When I came to bed,  Luke was already asleep.  The atmosphere in the room was something that I'm having a hard time putting into words even for myself.  It was magical,  peaceful--like walking on clouds,  like making your way through happiness.  I can't express it.  I could feel it strongly in my stomach area.  It was delicious.  Luke was sleeping peacefully.  Breathing peacefully.  Engulfed in the peace.  I lay down and fell right to sleep.  I fell into that magic place.  When I woke up,  it was the same feeling.  Then it changed and went from the magic to a good night.  I was up a lot and Luke was up a lot.  Thank God,  no problems.  He had a good night, we were still scared.   

All through the morning,  I thought about the part of the night that was blessed.  I just know a divine presence was in the room with us.  

I worked at home.  I taught a lesson.  And learned something myself.  The wind was strong today.  The trees were moving wildlly in perfect harmony with the wind.  I thought--I talk about surrender,  and I teach surrender--but just this morning--I started to picture surrender in my life.  It became real for me.  Nature is such a great teacher.  Then I went to NM for work.  

But all the time,  I was thinking about last night.  What happened and what does it mean?
