Well I did .....all the time. It always bothered me that I couldn't even stay awake to thank my god. I found out later many did the same. It now makes me wonder how REAL Jehovah was to me that I would fall asleep talking to him. We don't fall asleep when talking to our loved one in bed. Why did we to god?

Yes I did. I felt guilty and bad about it but i don't think it had anything to do with my feelings for God. I just think I was burning a candle at too many ends and was just plain wore out and too tired to stay awake!!

I would pray asking Jehover to help me not to naughty things to myself at night... this always led to my doing naughty things.
What sort of naughty things?
I always feel asleep when I was in the middle of... HEY!
Where's the dammed edit button....
I used to fall asleep all the time. I felt really guilty about it. But after a while, I felt like I was saying the same things all the time in my prayers anyway. Nothing in my life ever changed, so it didn't seem that my prayers ever changed. After a while, I didn't feel anyone was really listening to me anyway.
