I don’t usually get dreams as potent as last nights. I write this down in case it had any relevance or significance, and because it’s still fresh enough on my mind that if I don’t write it down now I will forget it. But I also have no interpretation for it, so if any reader out there has a sure word from the Lord about it and they’d like to share with me, I’m all ears. However, flakes need not bother me thanks.
Well, here goes.
I’m going to my apartment, and I see on a third or second story balcony to a building parallel to mine some musicians worshipping the Lord on the second or third story balcony of their apartment. This scenery is nowhere I’ve ever lived before and looks nothing like Summerwalk Apartments in NC, and in Peterborough I live at my parents’ house currently. So I’m unfamiliar with why I’m where I am.
Anyway, these worshippers just keep on doing their thing when suddenly I see a fire starting on the steps of this balcony, and the individual musicians all notice it, but keep playing. I stand there thinking that’s odd, but maybe they know what they’re doing, and head into my apartment while that flame gets bigger and bigger and I can no longer see any of the individuals through the flames, but they are not burning up or being hurt. The fire just gets bigger around them. I then proceed to run my errands and do whatever kind of things one does when they enter their apartment, and soon I start to smell smoke, and unalarmed, I put my shoes back on, and look out my apartment door and see smoke and fire in the hallway. So I get out of there, realizing whatever these musicians on their balcony were doing, has spread and is burning my building. I head in the opposite direction, exit the building, and then strangely enough, I just find some place to have a nap, and wake up later to find the fire has stopped or been put out.
I enter back on the premises and see about 1/4 or 1/3 of the whole building is charred black, and is giving off a foul smoke odor, but otherwise there is no fire kindling anywhere, it’s all been put out or has stopped. Upon noticing this, I go back around to the entrance to where I entered the first time, and see the balcony that these worshippers were on, is totally untouched, in direct contradiction to how I saw the fire start there. But immediately around the balcony area is devastated, but this one spot–the balcony itself is exubrant with color and life unscathed by the flames that were started there.
So I enter into the building, and see black soot and even destruction all down the hallway to my own apartment, and with a deep breath get ready to enter through the door to my home, when to my surprise, there’s nothing wrong with the inside. However, two of my roomates–roomates I had in real life this fall in NC, are in the apartment. One is lying on the couch in the living room/common area crying about what has happened. The other is standing with his hands on his hips trying to figure out what happened since nothing is wrong with the place like there should be. I take a few more steps and head into the room I was in when fire and smoke started coming through the wall, and there’s nothing there. I look carefully everywhere because I can still smell charcoal, but there is nothing wrong with our apartment. I am confused by this in the dream, and walk back outside and into the hallway, and one side of the wall is covered in soot and is burnt, but when I stick my head back into my apartment and look on the otherside of the wall parallel to the hallway, nothing is wrong on the inside of my dwelling place like should be.
A peculiar dream indeed, and though I have ideas of what certain symbolism in it represent, I have to say I am without interpretation to it. I have dreams all the time, but never as potent and memorable as this, and the times that they are as potent as this, usually have been something the Lord is showing me through visuals and can take up to several weeks, or in one case even 4 years before I learned what they meant. So if this turns out to have significance, I wanted it posted here so nobody could say I came up with it after some fact like a Sept 12th prophet would.
Peace out, I’ve got more to come in the way of looking at the Gospels concerning faith and healing like yesterday’s entry, but wanted to get this on here first.
