We see quite a few visions sent to us, this one was very touching:
Brother rory, I had such a detailed dream...would like to share with you. I realize it may seem lame, but wanted to write it down as it came to me.
My dream was I met a girl at a park who was everything I aspired myself
to be. The odd and peculiar thing I noticed most about this person was that she
didn't talk or speak to anyone very much at all, if even two words.
It was as if I was trying to get her to say something so that I could know for sure that she was what I thought she was, good, confident, trusting, full of light; she had a shawl
around her and the look in her eyes was immediate, they had truth flowing from
them.
She just was & when she moved she was who I wanted so much to be;
inquisitive yet quiet, unassuming but knowing, she searched and sought and
FOUND God in everything she did; everything, Was unopinionated, yet SOLID;
of a focused mindset, giving off lightness.
I left b/f Michael behind on several occasions when I felt such a leading and a needing to walk across the street (left Michael behind; not questioning anything) to see if I could meet her again.
I longed to meet her again. When I found her again, I had lost my wallet and was a bit panicked, but as I told her, I felt foolish bec my confidence was shallow.
To find "her", you must lose your identity, or as Jesus said:
Mat 10:39 He that findeth his life shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for
my sake shall find it.
Mark 8:35 For whosoever would save his life shall lose it; and whosoever
shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's shall save it.
When I told her I lost my wallet she was unaffected--
did nothing, said nothing; only looked so confident and honest in her way that exuded strength and wisdom, she was confident I would find my wallet, then I
believed her that it would be found, and if it were not all would be alright.
Her presence was more desirable than me following and
I needed to get away from him, yet was not a big deal like in times
past when I would prepare to do so to leave him. being a part of Michael's life. It was as if
It just happened.. I did not have to plan how to get away.
Seemed no matter where I or walked, whether in a living room with people trying to talk with
me or going thru doorways and thresholds, I was focused on finding her.
The people are distractions, So the contact with Michael this weekend was one of the doors/thresholds. You have searched for "her" in many places (churches, groups)
Nothing else mattered…I was led in my mind that I must develop this person in my
life to be me.
I was so hopeful yet did not want anyone to take her away; was protective of her, did not want her to move away until I could be found .
When I crossed the street, I entered into a park again to find her, I had to exercise my faith to find her…it was if it were my own secret and did not want anyone to spoil it for me…I had to get with her, my (spiritual -eternal life depended on it.
I could not return back to the place of my life before
encountering her so that I could be me.
The message here is that to find your life, you must lose your life for Jesus
and the gospels sake. Michael is only a figure for the life that must be left
behind.
"If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. OLD things are passed
away, behold all things are become new". Michael and the wallet pertain to your life apart from Christ. Your carnal, old nature that is unregenerate.
So the girl you met at the park is yourself, the Joanne that desires who she
is in Christ.
Do you see it? "She" is the daughter of the King. Your born of the flesh nature that must be buried. (our baptism is a figure for the death of the "old' Joanne. we are "buried with Him through baptism") in which the old man dies so that the NEW (BORN AGAIN Joanne) and all that she desires, might live."born-again" girl who "found God". "She" knows the Lord and is a member of the body of Christ.
Now go back and look at the underlined words
and you will clearly see the message given in the dream.
