Dreams

Have you ever had a dream about God or Jesus? I would be really interested in hearing about them. And do you think they mean anything? I have never dreamed about it before, but then I had this dream the other night:

It was like I was in a white marble multi story building. Like an open plan shopping centre without the shops. All white. And I was floating up. I was floating backwards and up, and facing down, if that makes any sense. And I could see two levels just below me while I was floating. On the top level was a man with enormous white wings. They were bigger than the length of his body. He was looking at me. On the bottom level I could see Jesus wearing robes and a man behind him whom I couldn't identify. Jesus wasn't looking at me, he was walking somewhere. I remember thinking at this point 'Oh I must be dead' and then I thought 'No I can't die, it would absolutely kill my mum'. I was staying in my mums house at the time and I was thinking of her finding my body, and I couldn't bear doing that to her. And the minute I thought that, I felt my body come crashing back down from wherever I was floating, and woke up.

Now, I have read near death experiences so it could technically be my subconcious mind being influenced by those stories. However it was so real, and the wings I saw on the man were so strange, I'm sure I've never seen wings like that before before. Don't you usually recreate images you have already seen in life in your dreams? And I never ususally remember any dreams, but I can remember every detail of this one. Another thing is I was actually very sick over christmas with a chest infection, finding it hard to breath at night and bad chest pains etc. I'm fine now.

It probably was just a dream but it was beautiful all the same. If anyone else had a dream like that please share, I'd love to hear them.

Splendour

Hi mm,

as I read your post I was reminded of the film Bruce Almighty. In the film Bruce (Jim Carey) is brought to a building very similar to the one you described to meet God (Morgan Freeman). I hope I'm not coming across as being flippant when I say this as I certainly don't mean to be at all! The building description just jumped out at me.

I haven't dreamt about God or Jesus and I envy you-what a fantastic dream! I have though dreamt I was in heaven in a beautiful meadow playing with my daughter who died. I was dancing with her and we were laughing and playing together-it was both beautiful and reassuring for me.

The wife of a friend of mine had a dream that she was standing at the edge of a lake looking across at a beautiful golden city, when a friend of hers who had recently died came to her and told her that she would be soon with her in the city. Next day, this girl went for tests to be told she had cancer and was dead within weeks.

I believe God speaks to us in dreams though some are more difficult to understand than others...

Acts 2,17

In the last days, God says,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your young men will see visions,
your old men will dream dreams.
