A recent dream I had.
A loud noise and a light turns on as the sound of feet stomping up stairs become more and more recognizable as I awake. 1:55 a.m. as I roll over to squeeze some more hours of sleep. I drift in to unconsciousness and into the back seat of a car. The rain beats down as my three other friends in the car talk about the tornados in the area. Were laughing and listening to music as someone says, “woah, did you just feel that?”. “What?”, I reply. “The storm just shook the ca..” Our car is suddenly and violently plucked from the pavement. The brief feeling of weightlessness coupled with a rotation as I see my friends turn out of their seats is short lived. As suddenly as we were lifted, our car slams into the ground. I feel the seat belt pull hard across me and the sever pressure of each individual roll the car makes as glass, plastic, and pieces of debries fly freely around the inside of the car. Im in a state of semi conciousness and feel a very comforting feeling when the idea of us being struck by another car stirs me. When I open my eyes we are upside down and I undo my seat belt and look through the gapeing crumpled holes that were once windows. We had miraciously landed on the shoulder, which was not safe enough for me. I crawl out of the wreckage and instruct my friends to do the same when in a whirrl I collapse on the ground. I am met with images of Christ and a comforting feeling and contentness. I feel he was conveying a message I cant quite recall at the moment. However, this was a short lived serenity. I awaken to rain drops and flooding. As I stand up I can see fires on the horizon, lots of fires, or smoke trails from fires. The horizon has an almost orange glow. It is evident to me at this moment that Christ has come a second time. The mark of the beast flashes in my eyes. Some one behind me crys out to God as they seem to have this same revilation. I turn around to try to find my friends and there are a lot more people this time. I begin to yell in anger, “do you see! Now do you believe!” My two younger sisters Samantha and breanna as well as my younger brother Anthony are included in the crowed. I start to walk around trying to think of what to do next. As I come back to where people are waiting more people are walking up. They are all children. I try to get some of their attentions but all seemed to be preoccupied. Some were even laughing with their hands in the air. (In hindsight it reminds me of how I felt when I first discovered Christ.) I decide we are going to attempt to make it to my fathers house because there would be beds and food for many people. The ground it self had become very treacherous. It was now covered with garbage and house hold items. I can remember trying to walk over hundreds maybe thousands of dirty serving utenciles as well as pots, and pans. Some of them with food still in them, all very greasy. As im climbing down this drop off the only ledges covered with dirty greasy houseware I look down at Anthony was a step or two below me. He slipps and falls 10-20 feet down into a large muddy puddle. I could see that he fell on his leg wrong and hurried down to help him. I stand him up and he seems ok but in the process we both had gotten covered in mud. I tell him to go ahead and I would find a safer route for Samantha and Breanna. I follow a run of rain water back to where the girls were. I reach my hand out for breanna and she imphatically resists saying, “I don’t want to get all muddy”. To which I respond, “your going to have to get used to a new reality bre, everything is different now.” I grab her and Samantha and try to catch up with Anthony. I finally catch up to Anthony as he is standing in the middle of a neighborhood road that has turned into a river. All the driveways have turned into streams feeding the river. Anthony is out wading in the strong current and I set Samantha in the water to swim to Anthony as I go back for breanna. Im not sure why she wasn’t with me at the time. Samantha’s head goes underwater and she starts to dog paddle to Anthony, she swims right past Anthony and begins to struggle. I yell, Anthony you have to get Samantha. He turns around to go after her and I turn around to go for breanna. When I look back Anthony has waded past Samantha and she is beginning to drown. I yell, “Anthony, get samantha!” He reaches for her but misses, as though he was seeing double and reached for the wrong one. I yell, “are you blind? Get her!” as I make my way for my struggling sister. I grab her up and put her in anthony’s arms. I turn around and head back for bre. I open my eyes and it is 2:30 a.m.
I decided that i would start reading from the book of revelation to try to see if god was trying to portray some message to me. In reading two things stood out to me.
1. When the process of Christ's second coming first begins there is a 30 min. period where nothing is heard. All is silent for 30 min. My dream lasted for 30 min.
2. A very familiar verse reads, "I will come as a thief in the night." But before that verse it says something along of the lines that christians should not worry of end times, they should lead there lives no differently so that when he comes it is as a thief in the night.
Either way, live your life for God and all will be good.
God bless,<3
