They’re just dreams…

     I keep learning that for many of us, dreams hold so much more than just mismatched events that our brains are trying to make sense of.

     Some of my dreams from 15 or so years ago seemed strange at the time, but I felt they were significant.  It wasn’t until years and years later that things made sense from them.

     Some things in them are symbolic.  Some are literal.  I don’t know.  But God knows.

     I have learned to pay attention to the emotions, the feelings, the messages, the symbolisms in them.

     Writing them down is good.  

     And I have been quicker and better at discerning my dreams that pertain to my life and many times, things have come true from my dream exactly as my dream said it would.

     Why does God then tell us in dreams and sometimes in ways we don’t fully understand?

     I think God lets us learn how we are ready.

     I think God lets us learn to look back and discern.

     I think God gives us just enough to help us along the path we need to go.

     And…I’ve had crazy dreams I don’t know if there was any particular meaning to.  Haha.  But many that did have some.

     Spiritual dreams can be a spiritual gift.  And I believe that it’s something many of us can develop or have a gift for if we desire.  Or we already have the gift and just don’t know it yet.

     One dream I remember before I paid close attention to my dreams was about a month before my grandmother died.

At the time my grandpa was sick and my grandmother was doing well.  Or well for her age and circumstances.  People in the family supposed that grandpa would die first.

     I had a dream that grandma died first unexpectedly and everyone was surprised.

     I did not know that dream would come true.  But that’s exactly what happened.  And that is not the only family or personal event that has come true from my dreams.

     I did tell some people though at the time about my dream because it was so odd to me.  Haha.

     I don’t know why I’m writing this post.   But I’ve also gotten dreams about family members or friends that I know needed help at a specific time.  I have tried to follow those impressions, but I’m sure I didn’t always do that perfectly.
