He had a
big machine gun in his hand and he was shooting it at some unknown foe.
He was
outside my window doing it as I watched him with fear and fascination. Next
thing I knew, he was before me and I was
asking him about it. He was wearing belted jeans and a plaid shirt and had
white hair. He smiled at me.
“Thank
you for killing that man! It was awfully nice of you to defend us like you did.”
“You’re
welcome!” he said, “but can I ask you a question?”
“Yes,
sure.” I replied.
“How
much of the Bible do you know?”
“Quite a
lot of it.” I said.
“What
percentage would you say?”
“About
70 to 80 percent.” I replied. “I’ve read it through many times and have
memorized many passages.
“Good.”
He said and nodded at my answer. "Keep it up."
“Why do
you ask?”
“You’re
gonna need that knowledge in the future. “
Before I
could say another thing, I heard my husband screaming:
“Laura,
wake up! Wake up, it’s time for supper!”
I woke
up and sat up and realized it was only a dream during my daily afternoon nap. I
thought about it as I hurried downstairs and realized that that man must’ve
been an angel protecting us. It was very comforting to think of it that way.
But the part about the Bible disturbed me a little. Would the future even more
difficult than it is now? Will they take away our Bibles?
I hope
not, but you never know. We Christians have been greatly spoiled in America
with our prosperity. It is not the case in the rest of the world where many
Christians are suffering from persecution.
I shared
this dream with my husband and son. Then, I was wondering what I would write in
my blog this week. This seemed to be what the Lord had given me to write about. This is true, by the way. I did not make any of this up.
“Study
to shew thyself approved, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly
dividing the word of truth.” 1 Timothy 2:15
