♫♫The Miracle of Love♫♫

For the longest time in church I would hear people talk about how they received an answer to prayer through dreams, and I have always wanted to have that experience. Last night it happened....

It all started yesterday when I went to work and I found that the clock Dr. Green's wife bought, and I insisted on hanging myself (it is a big fancy clock that looks very expensive) was on the floor and broken....I immediately thought it was a bad omen to the rest of the day. I spent the half hour I had to clean the clinic trying to fix the dang clock before Dr. Green arrived, and if you look at the clock now it has a big crack right on the six o'clock spot.

When the patients started to come in during the morning for their appointments, things ran pretty smooth and I was very confident. Then came the afternoon.....

To make a long story short, I have to make sure everything runs smooth for Dr. Green during the day and sometime during the afternoon I lost it, and instead of leaving the clinic shortly after five, Dr. Green left at 7 p.m., and I got home after 8 p.m..

No doubt I was very disappointed with myself, and when I got home I went straight to bed. My legs were aching, but I soon fell asleep. Then came the miracle....

I had a dream where I was with Batman and Robin and we were making a plan to fight against the Joker, much like THE ultimate battle. When everything was set to go Robin got shot by an arrow on his chest and Batman had me take Robin to the rooftop where he would receive help while Batman went to fight the Joker. Just then I heard Commissioner Gordon on the radio asking for all other super heroes to help Batman fight the Joker, who had all super villains with him.

With Robin on my arm I had to use Batman's grappling gun and go through the elevator shaft to reach the rooftop as quickly as possible to save Robin's life. The problem was that I had never used Batman's grappling gun and on my first try I lost my grip and the gun went to the roof without me. I was feeling desperate when Rachael (from the last two Batman's movies) came down the shaft with the grappling gun I lost.

Rachael then helped me use the gun properly, but it was still hard because I kept on bumping onto things. Just then I had some more unexpected help from regular people (I specially remember Alice in Wonderland's characters and a bunch of Chinese acrobats).

Along the way up the shaft, all the people helping me were singing a song, kinda like in a musical, and when I reached the rooftop all the people who helped were there cheering for me and the title of the song popped on the screen (the title was something like 7,000 which was the number of floors I went up with Robin on my arm). I tried to thank everyone for helping me, but my emotions got the best of me. Then I woke up....

I was feeling really good when I woke up and realized it was 2:3o in the morning. I grabbed my phone to write down what I could remember of the dream, and started to ponder the meaning of the dream and I had the distinct thought that just like in the dream, I was having a hard time with something that I had to do, but I had never done before nevertheless.

I was (am) so grateful that Heavenly Father reminded me that although I am struggling, there are many people cheering for me and my success. I was humbled (and sleepy) but I immediately said a happy prayer thanking Heavenly Father for his love, mercy, and kindness to me.

Well, if you stuck with me this far and read all of this entry, (my unusually long entry) I thank you for reading my testimony that I know Heavenly Father hears our prayers, even the ones we don't ask for, but that we want nonetheless.
