Dreams and Visions

 

I know we all dream, some remember all of theirs, some do not remember any of them while others, like me only remember dreams that have a lesson or message in them. I am in my mid 50’s and still remember dreams going back to my childhood.

One dream or nightmare, which was a recurring dream. I remember as a child was a telephone or electric tower starting to chase me as I was walking in our childhood home farm pasture. I still see myself trying to run away from it as it chased me and I remember looking over my shoulder at one point after hearing an explosion behind me. Fear filled me when I saw that it had started shooting balls of fire in my direction. As each dream progressed, the fire ball hit and explosion came closer to me, but I remember in the last dream of coming to a stop, turning and commanding the walking, fire throwing tower, to stop throwing the fire balls at me. I also remember someone else entering my dream and they looked angry, but the tower threw a fire ball at them and they disintegrated in front of me.

As well as remembering dreams from my childhood, I began seeing things in the spirit when I was a child. As a child I did not understand what I was seeing or hearing, and though I did not understand them as a child, as an adult I now, for the most part, enjoy having them. The reason I say, for the most part, is because seeing demons and evil in the world is not enjoyable unless they are being destroyed by God’s great Host.

In regards to seeing things as a child, before I was able to befriend the fire ball throwing, tower creature, in my dreams/nightmares, I would wake up in sheer terror and I would be crying because I was so scared. I am  not sure if it was more a feeling than a vision, but I could feel someone hugging me and within a few minutes I would fall back asleep, feeling totally and completely at peace.

In regards to hearing, there were several mornings standing outside, waiting for the school bus, hearing sweet music playing and when asking my sister if she heard the music…she did not.

Sitting here writing this out I am reminded of something I tell everyone in regards to my love for lightning storms and am wondering if it might be linked to my dreams, visions and things I began to hear as a child.

In my childhood home, I was the only one who liked lightning storms and we had lots of them. One year Dad planted a lightning rod on the back corner of our yard, which could be seen from our living room window. In our home as soon as there was witness of lightning or the sound of thunder, television, radio and anything electrical was shut off, windows were closed and curtains were drawn shut.

One Saturday, Mom had spent the morning rearranging our living room and had moved the couch in front of the window, but had left enough room between it and the window so it would be easy to draw the curtains shut. She had just barely finished rearranging when we all heard the crack of thunder. Instantly the curtains were closed, the television and radio were shut off and we were told to go do something that did not involve electricity.

I noticed there was a far bit of room between the couch and the wall so wondered, “Will I fit in there?” I waited unto mom went into the kitchen and then squeezed in under the curtain. I was quietly sitting on the floor between the curtain and the window when I saw a flash of lightning and it hit the lightning rod dad had place on the corner of the property. Flashes of blue, green and yellow flew off the rod and I could not stop myself from the involuntary, “Whoa!”

As it turned out my mom was sitting on couch and of course heard me. The next thing I heard was, “Bernadette Lynn B…. get away from that window and get out from behind the couch!”

That was one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my life and it seems that after that is when the outcomes of my dreams/nightmares began to change in that I was able to direct things that were happening in them.
