Infamous Baby Dreams

While I was an undergraduate at the UWI Mona, I was fortunate to become friends with and live with some of the most interesting people in Jamaica :) One such person was Aisha Harris who, when I woke up one morning and told her about one very disturbing baby dream that I had, decided to interpret the dream for me. This was in 2004. In the dream there were three babies (3) who were not regular babies and they were plaguing me, sucking the energy out of me (literally). They were very skinny and shadowy but I still perceived them as babies in the dream. I tried chasing them and caught two (2) of them but the skinniest one of all slipped away down the bath tub drain! When I woke up, my heart was still beating from the chase. I had to tell someone about it. Below is the interpretation I was given for the dream:


Genesis 37, 39-41
God speaks to people through dreams. All dreams have spiritual meanings. It can be a dream of evil or good. (God prepares/warns through dreams, because he loves us.)

God is trying to show you that you have a spiritual stronghold/opening in your life, that you might not be aware of. As a result foreign spirits come and use up your resources. Resources that God has given to you, resources for your cleansing. They do not come in the open, but they sneakily come so that you do not know. But God wants to reveal it to you (if he hasn't already). He wants you to send them back to the place they belong. What God has given to you is yours and you need to protect it. The spirits are very small, seemingly innocent, seemingly helpless and harmless, but they plague you.
You have tried and God knows , you have caught 2 (not a literal number), but 3 in the spiritual realm is the number of completion. You need to complete the process. The other one has escaped your grasp, but it will come back. It will come back in the night (in your darkness, when no-one can see/when no-one will know). But 'you know' when it comes. Notice they are skinny? Like in Pharoh's dream, they want to feed on what is left.
Nb. Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works complete...Revelations 3:2. God is trying to communicate to you. Dreams are a gift. Let him who is forewarned be prepared.

Hmm...It turns out that there were some things that I had been grappling with that were leaving me drained. It was from then that I decided to pay close attention to the recurring baby dreams. What are your thoughts on God speaking through dreams? Ever had an experience? I would love to hear it...

A Matter of Time

I don't think it's any coincidence that God's time  seems to be the theme for this month. There just always seems to be a time line involved in everything we want to get done. Anyway, as my birthday is fast approaching I've been spending time reflecting, going through pictures, reading my journals just really reflecting to get some perspective. What was interesting was that while going through the journal I just happened to buck up this to-do list...yea...one of those goal to-do lists  where I need to do x by y time . Funnily, the list was written back in 2006 and it had check boxes placed next to the goals. I noticed that at least 3 boxes were still not ticked at the time, while others were ticked and dated...and now for the surprise the unchecked were: 1. Become a lacto-ovo vegetarian  2. Go Natural and 3. Something else that I can't quite remember now.. . It was very funny to me, as reading it marked the 8th day since I had gone vegan with no desire for mea...

Empathy?

I feel your pain I look to you and I cannot imagine how You pulled through, how You were able to still go on You were made an example of how I could pull through the storms of life. Could I? What immeasurable strength What grace in the face of hardship For a moment you stumbled For a moment cast down under The burden of despair and the past. Then like an eagle on fresh wind You alight to face the new horizon Staring blatantly in the face of uncertainty To taste the dew of new mercies. Dare I Empathize? You my friend are the epitome of Strength. ~Live Life, Love God, One Enkounter at a Time~

Loneliness Cure: Emotional Hygiene

Before the grumpy cat gets under your skin this Valentine's Day, here are my FIVE favourite quotes from Dr. Guy Winch's TED Talk: "We all know how to care for our physical health but what do we know about maintaining our emotional hygiene?" "We sustain psychological injuries (failure, rejection and rumination) even more than we sustain physical injuries." "Once we become convinced of something, it's very difficult to change our mind." "You cannot allow yourself to feel that a situation is helpless. You have to fight for control over the situation and break the negative cycle before it begins." "When you're in emotional pain, treat yourself with the same compassion you'd expect from a really good friend."
