i had a vivid dream last night that intrigued and stirred my heart. i was scheduled to minister at hope alive's men's breakfast this morning and asking the Lord for direction as to what i should share. the message on two pieces of wood has really been alive in my heart (see earlier blog) and i wondered if this or another message on finding the courage to forgive out of Hebrews 12 was the right one to share with them this morning.
in the dream i saw two piles of dirt with shimmering gems somewhat buried beneath them. somehow i knew that one represented the luke 9 passage about our taking up our cross daily and the other represented the matthew 11 passage about taking upon us the easy yoke of Jesus. i was aware that these two passages are extremely valuable to God and to the understanding of His kingdom. i knew that they contained unchangable truths that we can tamper with only to our own detriment--they were not to be ignored or passed over lightly. these truths were partially hidden and they had to be excavated by spiritual discernment in order to be laid hold of.
i woke up from my dream in the middle of the night and knew that i had my direction for the morning's meeting. it went really well too. this message is living on in my heart and i continue to get new angles on it each time i share it with God's great people.
