Dreams
 
I do not try to read much into dreams but sometimes I have them and they get under my skin and drive me nuts. I have had a few that I know were sent by God for a purpose and what I was to do with them. I have even had a couple of visions that I knew were from God.
Mostly I figure dreams are just that dreams, something our mind makes up while we are sleeping. I am also familar with the fact that the devil can plant thoughts into the mind through dreams also.

ANYWAY

Last night I had an odd one. I hate snakes, all kinds. Only good snakes are dead snakes. That is my opinion. When I dream and the dream has a snake in it I will wake up and then not be able to go back to sleep because I am not wanting to see snakes in my dreams again.
Last night things were different. I had a dream that snakes were coming out of people. The people were not dead or dying but they were sick and then these snakes would come out of them. My family and I were hunting them down and killing them, the snakes not the people. =)
The snakes seemed to know we were after them and were trying to get away and when we would get close they would try to bite us but couldn't.
I woke up several times during this dream but fell back to sleep easily and picked the dream up right were I left off.
This was all very different for me. I hate snakes and want nothing to do with them. I am not going to get within reach of one. I will kill them from a distance but not up close and personal. Yet here I was with my family hunting them down and killing them.
Very strange. And then for me to remember it and not be sick to my stomach over it.

Anyway that was my night last night. Very surreal for me.

Just wanted to share. hope you all have a great week

At lest it was not Zombies, now they scare me.

And I will put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring [a] and hers;
he will crush your head,
and you will strike his heel."
Genesis 3:15

Sounds mighty biblical to me hermano.

Well, Bro. Jaxfam6, I was going to mention, quoting Joel in Acts 2:11,
but you're not an OLD man. So that is out!!:ursofunny

That is funny about the snake handling church. zombies are not real so I have no issue with them. =)

years ago, when my father pastored in rural ohio, out church was a converted barn. They were having a ministers meeting at our place and when they came out there was a snake on the step infront of the church entrance, I do not remember what kind it was. My dad, without missing a beat, says: "I told those boys to put those snakes away so they would be ready for service". I think a few of those ministers were ready to believe him for a moment and wanted out of the organization. :ursofunny

He had to explain to them that we were NOT snake handlers. It was funny. Not for those few men who believed him it wasn't. I thought the one was going to pass out.

Thanks, I am glad someone recognizes that I am not old. My kids sure think that 43 is old.

I believe it means God is going to use you in Healing and Deliverence of those around you.
