Five minute Friday – Dream

This is my first foray into Five minute Friday, so here goes…………..

Recently I had a dream – it was dusty. There were crosses stretching out into the distance. People were on those crosses, they were powerless. I stood at the foot of one of those crosses. The man on there was dying – he had blood on him and his eye was damaged. I was afraid. He was vulnerable – something dark could easily prey on him, but there was nothing I could do.

Later, I saw that man come down off the cross and he had a new power. Something new that I hadn’t seen before. Some kind of everlasting vibrancy. Then I was really afraid – now he was invincible. Nothing could prey on him now.

Dreams are strange – I guess reading the bible many times informs my dreams and my imagination. Like the song says, “oh to grace how great a debtor, daily I’m constrained to be”. Reading about God and thinking on him is my daily, waking passion. I guess it is no surprise that from time to time he would enter into my sleeping life too. Sometimes it is refreshing to dreams dreams, but I can’t base my life on half remembered dreams and fleeting imagination…….. STOP!

Hope you enjoy reading my Five minute reflection on Dreams.
