I had a similar experience about a month ago. I've been praying to grow and strengthen my faith. I was in bed, and after a long prayer I fell asleep. About an hour later, I experienced what was so real it couldn't have been a dream. I truly felt like a battle for my soul was taking place. I would try to pray but couldn't, tried to call out to my husband but couldn't - I was terrified. It went on for probably two hours. I was frozen in fear. I finally did what others have said here in the comments - rebuked this evil force. I was able to get up and I grabbed a cross off my dresser and held it all night. No doubt your story, mine, and the others here are real. The evil is looking for any weakness or doubt to get a foot in the door of your soul. Evil is rampant now more than ever. Stay strong. We all need to pray for strength and unwavering faith for ourselves and others! God bless you, you will be in my prayers.
Don Q - Don Quixote, Man of LaMancha:
To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe To bear with unbearable sorrow To run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong To love pure and chaste from afar To try when your arms are too weary The reach the unreachable star
This is my quest, to follow that star No matter how hopeless, No matter how far To fight for the right Without question or pause To be willing to march into hell For a heavenly cause
And I know if I'll only be true To this glorious quest That my heart will lie peaceful and calm When I'm laid to my rest
And the world would be better for this That one man scorned and covered with scars Still strove with his last ounce of courage To reach the unreachable star
Bring chairs that you don't mind leaving behind. Bring a Styrofoam cooler with water/snacks/sandwiches (optional, depending on time of day) that you can also leave behind. Dress comfortably. You'll love it!
