It's rare that I dream anymore. I don't know why, but that's just how it is. But when I have a dream, it often intrigues me. Especially the one I just had about 20 minutes ago...
I dreamed that I was at a daycare picking up my son. Everyone was nice, but everyone was busy getting the kids ready to leave.
I was talking to this one lady I believe she was supposed to be one of the teachers and she handed me his backpack and we were talking... I'm trying to remember about what but I can't... anyway I noticed she got easily agitated at me so I thought (okay, well if I start talking about Jesus and she freaks out I know she has a problem with a demon or the devil), so I screamed out, "JESUS!!!" at her, and she immediately changed her face into a snarl and started yelling at me... (sheesh just writing this I'm getting goosebumps) I was scared and startled by her reaction, but I held my ground, stood up tall, and started singing christian songs at her. she ended up on the floor on her back... just because of my singing and at the end of my dream I was standing over her, with my foot at her neck, still singing. I was victorious over evil I suppose is the only way I could interpret it. I woke up in the middle of tossing and turning and I was a bit scared and confused. I'm not used to winning over evil in my dreams. But I am proud of my subconscious self ;)
I've actually been feeling really low lately. One of those times in life where everything seems to go wrong and everyone is against you. In a weird way, I feel a little stronger after having this dream.
and in case you were wondering, I can't remember all of the songs I was singing at her because I sang like 4 or 5, but I remember the last one because it stuck in my head when I woke up. It was Matthew West's "the motions". and it's still stuck in my head.... wow, you know I never knew this whole song but after reading the lyrics just now I can see how it applies to my life right now. Amazing!
Here's the lyrics if you've never heard it before:
The Motions Lyrics
Artist(Band):Matthew West Review The Song
This might hurt, it's not safe
But I know that I've gotta make a change
I don't care if I break,
At least I'll be feeling something
'Cause just okay is not enough
Help me fight through the nothingness of life
I don't wanna go through the motions
I don't wanna go one more day
without Your all consuming passion inside of me
I don't wanna spend my whole life asking,
"What if I had given everything,
instead of going through the motions?"
No regrets, not this time
I'm gonna let my heart defeat my mind
Let Your love make me whole
I think I'm finally feeling something
'Cause just okay is not enough
Help me fight through the nothingness of this life
