Beyond



Five minutes on 'Beyond'. 
Go.

My dreams take me far beyond myself. My dreams both sleeping and waking. In my sleep I traverse relationships and continents and see faces and places and people who are crying out for prayer. China and Thailand are high on the list right now, and I can't explain it but I know I know that these people are longing for God, for the Daddy I love to fall in love with again and again. The prayers that spring from these dreams are desperate and raw and from deep within, from a place that has no words. I don't know what Daddy wants for these people, but He knows, and that's enough. Prayer echoes in eternity, and these prayers are a simple Amen, Amen, Amen to His heart. Some of the faces and relationships are people I recognise and know and love, and sometimes they are not. Always, I pray. Such nocturnal adventuring does not make for restful nights, so I long for sleep, and when I sleep I dream again and pray again and still find myself not rested, but building in energy and passion and am being filled anew with His Spirit. 

Stop.

With thanks to Lisa-Jo at The Gypsy Mama for Five Minute Fridays. Won't you join in?
