Was it scary that night?

Last night upon switching off the lights for bedtime, Sarah started crying and her actions were actions of fear. It was as though there was something in the room that she was afraid off. She wasn't behaving her usual self. I was sitting on the bed with her and she kept wanting to climb on my laps. She just did not want to "touch down" the bed.

Daddy quickly prayed a prayer that Jesus will cover her with peace & grace. Daddy prayed that our room be filled with the presence of the Holy Spirit & not something bad. Minutes after that, as I hugged her tightly (and she to me), she slept through the night.

It was such a pity that she couldn't communicate what she wants or what she sees or feels. Daddy & I kept asking her what's wrong and tell her that it's OK... mummy's here, daddy's here... She just cried, shook her head and sort of wanting to tell something but couldn't. I saw the frustration she had when she couldn't communicate words with us.

Well, Sarah... the day will come when we can communicate with words, ya? Be patient. Little by little everyday, you, daddy & mummy will be able to communicate and know each others hearts ya? Bless you, our little one... Have a good rest at home & may God send His angels to surround you & guard you from any evil deeds, in Jesus' name we pray - AMEN!

maybe is the sudden light off thingy, sudden dark she dont like it, next time try to tell her lights off, let her press the switch...i think she will be more confident..or maybe fearless..

Hmm... dont think it was due to the lights... because it wasnt like her first time being in darkness. Anyway, thank God it happened only that 2 nights. After tht, she is back to her usual self!
