When Jesus walked this earth about 2000 years ago, He used many parables to teach his disciples and other followers of that day.  The HOLY SCRIPTURE is THE GUIDELINE for any Christian.  In this day and age, we, too, may learn from examples of others.  Also, Spiritual Dreams and Visions do come from God.  We see many examples from the Bible whereby God had something profound to say to men and women throughout those Biblical Times.

I am of the firm belief that Spiritual Dreams and Visions are definite signs from God.  It is, however, important to discern the content of the dream and the person sharing the dream and/or vision.

 

During Saturday afternoon on January 25, 2003, I and my husband attended the annual business meeting of the Sonshine Circle.  The Sonshine Circle meeting took place in a church. The meeting was interesting in that activities for the coming year were discussed among the good-size group.

 

That night - January 25-26,2003 - I had a profound dream.

 

THE DREAM

 

I was in a room that had approximately three long tables.  The tables were placed in a “U” shape.  The tables contained numerous pictures of various sizes.  I saw a few pictures that had original content, and all the pictures had glass covers.  One of the pictures - with old frames - contained a small replica of an old wedding gown that fit into a frame approximately 11x14 in size.  The white gown had already seen a number of years because it looked as though it was very old.  I also saw many other pictures, although I do not recall their total content.  There were photos that had oblong frames, etc.

 

While viewing the tables, there was a Man with a Suitcase.  This Man was collecting the old pictures with frames and placed them into His Suitcase.  This morning, January 26, 2003, I questioned the Lord and asked, “What is the interpretation of such a dream?”

 

I did not receive an answer immediately.  After attending the morning worship service, I continued to ponder about the dream; and, then, I received the answer.

 

THE INTERPRETATION

 

The man with the suitcase was Jesus.  The old pictures with old frames represented people that are seniors.  Those pictures with frames belong to Jesus.  The pictures are of great value -- they are priceless.

 

When Jesus collects my Picture, it will then be time for me to go to my Eternal Home.  None of us know when that time will be; however, I must be ready to some day meet my MAKER -- THE CREATOR OF HEAVEN AND EARTH!

When thinking about the above dream, what additional significance does that dream portray?  There is no question that some day each of us will face Jesus -- I am glad that I will face Him as My Saviour and not as my Judge!

While traveling through life, we have the Holy Scripture that helps us to understand the spiritual aspects.  None of us may understand all there is to know about Christian Living; however, the Bible states:

"For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:  now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known."  I Corinthians 13:12

 

Revelation 19:7 and 8 states:  "Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him:  for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.  And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white:  for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints."

I am so grateful for God's Holy Word and His daily guidance, strength and provisions!

 

The Bible also states: “. . . Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” (John 3:3)
