DIFFERENT BUT SAME
Here are 2 wonderful things that happen.
1. To be wakened in the middle of the night, by the nudging of God, either to spend time with Him or to receive an update from God (a reminder or enlightenment).
2. To wake up in the morning, not having been awakened in the middle of the night because of an emergency call or message of tragedy from a friend or loved one.
Thank you Jesus for both of these blessings.
"An Update"
By, "Update" I am referring to God's speaking to us personally, as in a reminder or an enlightenment, an application of Biblical truth on a personal level.
This personal communication includes the elements of both the inerrant/infallible Word of God and our own personal awareness of His presence and enlightenment.

The value and depth of our fellowship with Him is relative to the maturity and purity of our own relationship to Him.
