Do You Hear Me When I Pray?

So, I saw and talked with my sister last night. Although it was in a dream, I am 100% sure it was real! It was the best dream I've ever had in my life to date!

I walked through a random doorway and was suddenly startled by a hand - although the instant I saw it, I knew it was her! I asked "is that you? Are you here?" - and sure enough, she came out from behind the door. I instantly grabbed her and held her in my arms for several minutes - all the while, I kept looking at her and taking her face in my hands and kissing her, saying "it's really you! It's really you!". I felt her skin, I smelled her, I looked into her eyes, I KNOW it was really her! As we stood there hugging, I noticed that there was something different about her. She did not act as she would have acted during a reunion. She was very calm, not flailing all around dancing around in circles for 10 minutes. There was an extreme presence of peace about her - she was so gentle and quiet. I knew she couldn't stay long - and I knew I only had enough time to ask her one question. I told her that I knew she couldn't stay, but begged her to answer my question. She lovingly agreed. I then looked straight into her big beautiful brown eyes and asked "do you hear me when I pray?" She took my face into her hands as gently and warmly as she could and looked back into my eyes and explained - "Ninna, I wish you could see it! Words cannot describe it. When you pray, there is a great light that is upon you. A light that is too intense for words. As you pray the light shines upon you for all of the heavens to see. I wish you could see it from my perspective." I then said, "but do you hear me when I talk to you?" She again looked into my eyes and simply said, "I am ALWAYS with you!" The dreaded moment came when I knew she had to go - I clung to her and begged her to stay just a few more minutes - but she explained to me that I knew she had to go. And once more she said "I am always with you."

I know it sounds crazy - but I am FULLY convinced that it wasn't a dream! I know it really happened - I know I held my sweet sister last night! And the best part is - I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt now, that she hears me when I pray!
