Usually we say some prayers after dinner. The prayer to Our Lady of Lourdes is done almost nightly along with a decade of the rosary. There are others we pray depending upon the season and the happenings that day. However, because I wasn’t feeling well yesterday, I laid down immediately after dinner and the prayers were missed, even though that was an occasion when prayers should not have been missed. Some time during the night, my dad woke up my mom to say the prayers. They prayed a decade of the rosary. It must have been in my dad’s subconscious. I felt much better when I got up this morning, so perhaps he was praying for me. However, I felt guilty for missing those prayers and realized how meaningful they are. I vowed not to skip them again.

I Found God today in my dad’s mid-night prayers.
