Can someone check my grammar for me?

Hello, can some check the grammar of the following words below?

I woke up in cold sweat and sat straight up in our bed, and touched the side of my face. It had all been a dream or a nightmare. Moonbeams filtered through our curtains casting a soft light in the room.

My husband lay on his side, snoring blissfully, unaware of my trouble dream. I snuggled close, breathing in his minted fresh breath. My hands ruffled his black hair, and I snuzzled his ear. "I love you." He muttered in his sleep, and tossed one arm around me. Lying back against the pillow, I whispered, "Father, thank you for revealing to me what you want me to know."

The only problem that immediately jumps out is 'trouble dream' 'trouble' is a a noun or a verb; you need to use the adjective form. In this case 'troubling' (the active participle).

I forgot to ask about the sentence: My husband lay on his side, snoring blissfully, unaware of my
troubling dream.
I want to know if it is active present tense, if it's how do I change the sentence to
past active tense?
