Sleepless in Charlotte

It's 3:30 AM and I can't sleep.  My dog is snoring beside me, but I am wide awake.  I woke up suddenly and couldn't get back to sleep.  It's like my brain decided to go into overdrive the moment my body was awake.  One of my favorite people found out some news yesterday and my heart hurts for her.  Another had a tough situation to deal with this week. Another is preparing for a rough road ahead.  I have a major headache to deal with.  This week we were chatting and our conversation went from the insane to completely open and honest with each other.   I had to stop and praise God that He gave each of us this safe place to truly share one another's burdens without fear of gossip, or judgement, or condemnation.  But to share all of us with each other. Maybe that's why I can't sleep.  I need to cover them with more prayers.  I am grateful that I can boldly go to the throne and take these burdens to Him.  In 1st Peter, He says cast your cares on Him.  Each week
