Last night I had the strangest dream....and no, don't start singing that song! We were in some house (don't know where or to whom it belonged) on a hill. It started to rain, and apparently it hadn't rained in awhile, so I (in my dream) made the comment, "is that all you got? Bring it on!"
It proceeded to pour and blow and the house blew off the foundation and started to go down the hill. That wasn't the worst part. The kids were in the basement, getting drenched as we went flying in the house. In my dream, I just started praising God and confessing how sinful I was. It woke me up because it terrified me so. I got up and fell on my face before God at 2 am, confessing His awesomeness.
Now I know this probably sounds weird to you, but this dream scared the bejeepers out of me. I realized that I think I'm in control of SO much in my life. No, not the "big" stuff (elections, gas prices, etc.), but certainly my kids, grocery shopping, things like that. This dream made the point that I control NOTHING. And not only do I control NOTHING, I am so sinful I can't even stand up in front of God.
Sound scary? It was - but it was also a huge blessing. My dream life is controlled by the Holy Spirit. Isn't that great??? I may wrestle with God during the day while I'm awake, but my God has got my subconscious.
