It’s easy to see nightmares as something negative—something to fear or avoid. But in a strange and uncomfortable way, they can be the very thing that heals us.
Healing isn’t just about feeling better.
It’s about feeling at all.
Nightmares can be your mind and body trying to process what was too overwhelming in the moment. They’re a signal that something inside you is still unresolved, still hurting, still asking for attention.
And while that can feel terrifying… it’s also an invitation.
An invitation to face what you’ve been carrying.
An invitation to begin releasing it.
An invitation to heal, even if it doesn’t feel like it yet.
Jesus, give me grace in the darkness, be my covering. Place your protective hands around me and hold me tight. I will trust that you are even using nightmares to heal me completely. Walk with me, don’t leave me alone. And help me pass THROUGH this and not get stuck! In Jesus name! Amen!
