Incredible Dream

I sometimes have some weird dreams.

One time, I dreamt that Mel G. married a certain straight-laced friend of ours, and I gave them a lava lamp as their gift. Another time, I had a dream that I had to have some dental work done that cost a LOT of money, and so I paid with credit card. They accused me of forging my sister's signature. I've dreamt of dead people in the UCO parking lot, video games, and many others.

So, when I have a truly cool dream, it actually means something. Such was the case last night.

I had a rough time going to bed, what with a headache and general antsiness (is that even a word?) So when I finally fell asleep, it was a great relief.

I dreamt I was in church. The choir was up front in their red robes, and the church was PACKED. I mean, I was practically sitting in my neighbor's lap.

Bro. Jim preached a little bit. Then, James led us in a song, "Great is the Lord" by Michael W. Smith. At the chorus, everyone raised their hands in worship. Some people had tears streaming down their faces. Even now, it gives me chills even typing this.

For a long time, I have struggled with being able to worship with abandon. I've been raised to not make a scene, to be low-key, etc. etc. But seeing all those people worship just gives me chills, and soon, I had my hands up as well.

I thank the Lord for giving me that dream.
