Dream A Little Dream Of Me

Well, it's been a long time since I posted anything, and as always, it's so I remember whatever it is that's on my mind at the moment. This time it's not good.

Often, before I go to sleep, I ask God to send me a dream that I will remember, and that will send me a message of importance. Last night I had such a dream.

At a mall-type setting, with tiled floors. There was a sign (no I don't know what the sign said), it had a metal frame, the kind that has a stand, and surrounds the entire frame of the picture. There were women gathered there, along with their babies. I saw a bottle sitting on top of the stand from where I was sitting on the tile floor. I was holding a baby on my lap, and gazed up to see the bottle sitting there, and thought, 'oh, the bottle has been accidently left there, and I should grab it and see if it's one that belongs to the baby in my lap. When I stand up to get the bottle, the baby in my lap kind of ends up locked upside-down between my thighs. At that time I notice it's not 'this baby's' bottle, because it's sitting on the tiled floor. I grab the baby upright, and am holding it to make sure it is doing all right. Its face is in a sad countenance, even though I see it is a very pleasant looking child with blue eyes and light hair. As I am trying to comfort the child, and let it know everything is okay, it's just an accident that occured when I was reaching for the 'lost bottle', I see it's mother has walked up and is watching and wondering what happened. Still trying to comfort the child I am looking at her to see if she looks like she will be okay, and also I am worried that the mother will be upset to know that my care for the child has not been so 'careful'. Suddenly the baby looks me in the face and says my name....Renee. I am shocked that this baby can speak so clearly, AND that she knows my name. I respond, 'Yes?' She says, 'You're headed for hell.' I wake up.

So, that's a dream I remember, and has a clear message. Not the message I hoped for, but a message none the less. It leaves me wondering things:

Why hang on to a past experience, in which understanding was given, and a major change in life style occured, but no further growth has been acheived?

Knowing that God doesn't even hear the prayers of the un-saved, how could He hear and answer my prayer for a dream, if I am yet unsaved?

Does this baby's statement mean, 'You're going to hell'? If so, why not just say those words?

Why did this occur right after my conversation with my brother-in-law, where I explain that man is unable to do anything good without the grace of God? Right after the Truth has been proclaimed to the lost. OR, am I just the talking ass that proclaims God's truth to the lost?

Yeah, I'm trippin'.

Anyway.........

Stars shining bright above you

Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"

Birds singin’ in the sycamore trees

Dream a little dream of me

Say nighty-night and kiss me

Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me

While I’m alone and blue as can be

Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on dear

Still craving your kiss

I’m longin’ to linger till dawn dear

Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you

Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you

But in your dreams whatever they be

Dream a little dream of me
