Dream last night

I believe that God can speak to us through our dreams, and if you want a reference for that you can check out www.blueletterbible.com (http://cf.blueletterbible.org/search/translationResults.cfm?Criteria=dream&t=NKJV&page=3 ). The NKJV give numerous examples throughout the Bible. The word Dream, itself is found in 13 books, and the word Dreams, is found in even more. There are accounts of God speaking to people directly in dreams, God sending “The angel of the Lord”, and dreams which require an interpreter, because they are not always clear to the one who receives them. I had an interesting dream last night, and I remember it in great detail, but it didn’t feel like anything significant. Sometimes you wake from a dream where you are left with more feeling than memory, and those are the dreams I am most curious about. This dream was interesting, but I don’t see any message in it, and I don’t like to make something out of nothing. If it strikes a chord with you let me know, but for the most part it is just entertaining to see what the mind can come up with.

Dream:

I’m with a group of people, and we are sort of like a team or a group of soldiers who live in a city that is much like War of the Worlds, or 28 Days Later, or Resident Evil, or I am Legend. It feels sort of post Apocalypse, but I’m not really in the know. I feel like I’m figuring things out as I go along, that I’m reliant on this other guy who I think is head of my team. We are all in these trailers, or metal compartments like the ones found on cargo ships. The leader is describing things to me when all of a sudden we have to all stay still and pretend we are dead. Like in war of the worlds when the alien machine is scanning the house for life forms and Tom Cruse is hiding, staying still. I am facing the back of the room we are in, but there is a dirty mirror in front of me so I can see the front door. There are demons coming into the room, and they look like something out of the movie Aliens, but I know they are demons. As one comes in we all sort of lie still, but I scurry a bit to stay face down. At this point I can see everything happening to me as if I am watching a video of myself, shot from over the shoulder of this demon. The demon pokes around at all the bodies on the floor and when it gets to me it flips me over and checks my pule. In my head I am thinking, “How could a demon be fooled by live bodies lying on the ground, pretending to be dead? Obviously they would be able to check a heart beat or see the slight movement of breath.” As the demon checks my pulse, grabbing my neck I open my eyes, staring up at the demon and the camera, the camera being my focal point. I role over and start to climb out over the top of this tanker/house as everyone else begins running too. I’m running through these tankers, through them as if they are set up like a little slum town. Eventually I meet up with my team leader again and we are at a rail station where thousands of people are getting on these trains to be taken somewhere else. I’m pretty sure it’s a plan of escape to somewhere safe, but I don’t expect there are too many safe places in a world where demons are running around hunting humans. So we are watching these trains and waiting on a platform to take us across the tracks. The platform is on hinges and we are waiting for it to rotate so we can get on and move across the tracks. As we are waiting there is someone conducting people, telling those who are closest to get on the newly arrived train. This conductor tries to usher us on a train but my team leader tells him, “No no, we have a mission”. So we are exempt from going on the train with all the others. This is the last part I remember as I fade into waking state, watching small trains, and big trains take people away.

I had a dream the night before about a train as well. I was hanging out with the tr park boys and we were running from the police. I kept getting away but I was never far enough away to completely escape so they kept on me. I hate dreams where I’m running form things that I can never get away from.

Put that in your pipe now.
