Dreaming……..Then Reality

I had a wonderful dream last night.  Then this morning I was smacked upside the head with reality!

In my dream I awoke with energy and enthusiasm and was ready for a brand new day.  Reality arrived this morning with continued nausea, no energy, and children not even attempting to get out of bed.

In my dream school got off to a great start, went smoothly, and was enjoyed.  Reality arrived this morning with slow movers wanting to do anything but crack a book.

In my dream hubby was still here and heading off to work.  We were making dinner plans for the evening before he left.  Reality arrived this morning with the reminder that we would not be sharing dinner anytime soon.  Afghanistan is a bit too far for a dinner date.

In my dream I had a great blog post that was just going to knock your socks off in surprise.  Reality arrived this morning and you are stuck with post.

In my dream God provided me with the perfect day.  Reality arrived this morning with the assurance that God did indeed provide me with the perfect day.  Maybe not the day of my dreams but the day that was perfectly needed for my growth today.

Lord, help me to learn, to grow, and to enjoy today.

Psalm 118:24  This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.

So, how is your day so far???

    Hi Kristine,
    Isn’t it wonderful that our heavenly Father brings us dreams, and gives us the gift of every day with Him.

    It doesn’t matter whether the day lives up to your expectations, as long as it lives up to His. ;)

    Have a wonderful week,
    Love and blessings, Jillian ?
