Last night I could not sleep. No kidding, I went to bed around 10:30 p.m. and lay there for over an hour trying to go to sleep. At a quarter to twelve, I got up and went to read emails. I read them all and answered some. Then I decided to play an internet game to bore me to sleep; at 2:30 a.m. I was still wide awake but I knew I needed to lay my body down and try to go to sleep. I kept saying,, “Sleep will be pure delight, so all I have to do is close my eyes and pure delight will roll over me and I will go to sleep.”
At 3:15 I was still wide awake. Pure delight just would not come my way. . . . so I began to pray. I prayed for everyone I could think of and then the presidential election and then the people I didn’t know and at 4 a.m. I was still wide awake. Nothing was bothering me, I just was not sleepy for some reason I could not fathom.
I decided to talk to Father…. and I said: “Here I am Lord, wide awake and not sleepy at all. Where are You?” Silence…… “Well, if I am awake, and I am your child, DADDY, WAKE UP – your child needs to talk to you!”… silence…….”DADDY< WAKE UP I WANT TO TALK TO YOU NOW!”
I have come to sing a song over you, my Baby Girl for I am the good shepherd who delights in you and watches over you – who leads you besides still waters, who guides you down the path of righteousness for my sake. I lead you to peaceful places and give you strength when you are weak. When you get lost, I find you and bring you home. When you walk thru the valley of the shadows, I AM right beside you watching over you, guarding your footsteps, protecting and comforting you along the way to our safe haven. I know when you need rest and I provide you that needed rest and you know when you cry Daddy, I AM at your side. My Child, I wanted to spend this night with you but you went to the internet, email, games on-line and I allowed you that time playing for I knew you would come lay down sooner or later and cry “Abba” ….So close your eyes and listen to the small still voice sing over you as you fall to sleep in pure delight of knowing I AM with you always……….
I slept about 3 hours in pure delight. I woke up feeling like I had slept 10 wonderful hours in soft clouds and I just want to praise Him….. forever

I have been surfing online more than three hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.

While I actually like this publish, I think there was an punctuational error close to the end with the third sentence.
