So last night I had a horrible dream. Not unusual but the way this one was some how seemed different from the other bad dreams I've had.
In my dream I got a job at a senior assisted living place (oddly enough, it was the same place my sister works at) my parents and the rest of the family dropped me off for my first day of work. I grabbed my purse and started walking towards the entrance, I noticed that there was a scary looking man standing near the door and I decided I wouldn't need my purse (and that I didn't want him to steal it from me as i walked by) so I started walking back to the car, I remember he grabbed me and held a knife to my throat and started whispering in my ear about the horrible way he was going to kill me. Worse yet my family drove away :( somehow I got away from him and I ran about 10 feet away. One of the tiny knives he had he threw at me and missed, I threw it back at him and it just stuck in his really poufy jacket. I ran away as fast as I could, but I felt that I would never be able to escape him. This terrified me, but also I felt that I had some peace. Like this was just life, that I was going somewhere better. Which I know I will someday :) I'll skip the next part in my dream cause it made no sense. So anyways after trying to escape the town several times (there was a fence around the whole town) I went to one of the school teachers little trailers on the very edge of town. I opened the door, and stepped in. I knew that he knew where I was and that he would soon be headed my way. Now this is where it really gets interesting. I found a bible CD, that had children reciting bible verses on it. Some how I knew that if I played this when he came in he wouldn't be able to touch me. So my plan was simple as soon as he stepped in the door, push play on the CD player and start reciting scripture verses myself. I have no idea what happened next because I woke up. So I don't know whether I survived or whether he killed me.
The whole dream seems really strange, but when I woke up I thought of the evil man, he seemed alot like Saten in alot of ways, seeking to destroy us at every point in our walk with Christ. I know he didn't want me to have a peace about dying, thats why he whispered his evil plans in my ear, he wanted to scare me so bad that I would forget that God loves me, and that I have salvation in Him.
Even though my family deserted me at one point, it only made me cling more to my Savior. He's the only one that can truly save us, not our family, not our friends, ONLY JESUS.
I'm not sure if this will make any sense to anyone, it made alot of sense to me though.
Psalm 5:4 "For you are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness, nor shall evil dwell in you."
Psalm 86:7 "In the day of my trouble I will call upon You, for You will answer me."
In His Name,
Karis
Psalm 70:1
