I had many dreams during my the early part of my Christian faith .Though I am a Catholic by birth , I had never felt this special encounter with the Lord . I began having all of these dreams when I started to read the bible and attending bible sessions *** fellowship , under the guidance of a Christian Pastor .

The Lord has HIS PLAN for me .

You would say that I used to get dreams quite frequently . There are too many to mentioned here. One of these dreams that I would like to share is A flight to Los Angeles.

It began with the airport . I had arrived and was about to leave the airport . There was a cab waiting for me . I had no luggage with me . I was kind of 'Huh? What am I doing here '. I had decided not to take the cab . I rather walk and see this place for myself . This place had awesome skyscrapers .It was a mega city and indeed I like it as it was a beautiful place to stay .
As I began to walk , down the street ( there were no highways or flyovers ) , I saw a small church . There were many priests in that church . It was packed like sardines. I wanted to go there to pray and have a look around . However , as I approached the church , there were six priests carrying a coffin (with a white cloth over it) passed through the door and walking out of the church . I could not go in, so I decided to go there here later . As I walked down the street , I saw another church . It was like a cathedral . ( a huge church ) . I was so happy . I walked on and was really disappointed not able to go in .

Why ? It was locked . The church was empty and deserted . There was nobody around . How dissapointed was I !

I wandered and saw old buildings with the invalids being attended to . I was sad . I met a young lady and asked her where was I . She said that I was in Los Angeles .
Wow ! I am in America .

She showed me some places and explained the history of that place . A sad story where many people died during the war . There was this old lady whom I met and she was crying . She kept calling Lord's name to heal her pain .Her face was disfigured. I told her that the Lord will heal her and she was instantly healed. We praise the Lord ! . My dream stopped when I saw my uncle ( a divorcee ) out of nowhere and he told me that he had enough with his present wife . It ended there .

When I woke up, I was puzzled . The dream was so real . I could still remember the place and every detail that had taken place . I prayed for my uncle , that the Lord would touch him and draw him closer to the Lord.

Bros and sis in Christ .

1. What does the first Church represent ? The coffin and the six priests ?
2. Why was the second Church close ?
3. Why was I there and one peculiar thing was that I had no luggage with me ?
Why ... no luggage ?

I had my answers . Still , I would like to share this with all of you . :lightning

me too

The following is a dream from God He gave me early in my walk with Him:

I am a guard in a large, brick building. I am at the back of the building, typing. I am stiff and afraid. I think to myself how desperately I want to go to the front of the building, where the people are out on the street. I want to be near people. I am desperately lonely. But I have this guard job to do. So I keep typing ...(In reality, I was a freelance writer at the time!)

Suddenly I hear a ruckus across the alley, coming from the open door of another building parallel to mine. The noise bothers me. The person, laughs, sings, carries on incessantly.
It bothers me alot. I feel that they should shut their door.....then I wake up from the dream.
 
Meaning of dream: 1. I was always on guard with people, keeping them from seeing my real self. 2. the front of the building represented being approachable and friendly (which I was afraid to do.) 3. the person laughing and singing parallel to me---God said that was the real me. He said that He made me to be that sort of person, but that I had built all these walls around myself!

I've had several more dreams from God. Many of them were not as pleasant as this one. I feel like this dream was a direct love letter from God, to me. Some of the other dreams were warnings to stay away from a dangerous person or to change direction in my life.
 
I also have odd dreams-

I am glad I am not the only one but of course everyone dreams some of us just have more in depth ones. I wrote about one in my journal a week a two ago where I led a man to Christ that was stealing my g-pa's car. Last night I had one that really scared and puzzled me. If anyone has any input feel free.

A family friend died of a drug over-dose on Monday, her funeral is today actually. I had a dream that my door would not close, I pulled it shut and popped back open, I walked back and shut it about 3x's then all of a sudden it swung completely open with force and Missy was standing there. She began pulling at me and I was resisiting telling her,"NO, no!"
I had on a robe over my clothes (which I never wear a robe) she had a hold of it and was trying to pull me to her. I told her, "Ican't help you now you should look to Christ, only he can help you." then and I turned and slipped out of the robe and she was gone. It was really scarry, I woke up terrified and trembling.

Perhaps it was just my conscience since I feel so bad knowing she passed away and was wondering if she was saved and that she was lost since she died from doing drugs.
 
Michelle, I'm not really sure, but I'm willing to take a stab at it. You wonder if Missy was ever saved. And perhaps the Lord is trying to warn you to stay close to Him and not be spiritually dragged down by this horrible death. Let His light shine through you, even though this is a dreadful time for Missy's family. Wouldn't it be someting.....if the man you are going to lead to Christ (from your previous dream) is one of Missy's relatives?!?:love:

the robe---could it the filthy garments spoken about in the Old Testament books of prophecy? God gives you a clean garment, a garment of praise. You do not need that robe that Missy pulled off of you, if that is the case. PTL
