Devotion to Family

Job 5:17

“Blessed is the man whom God corrects; so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.”

My Dad. I feel like a broken record; I need your help!

My daughter come, I will help you.

I believe you Father, thank you. Help me not to just keep looking at this high mountain, thinking how difficult its going to be, but help me begin to walk in it and get more comfortable as it becomes more familiar. 

My faithful daughter, I will always help you -you are mine.

Reflection:

Happy Monday:) Okay, this first dream completely humbles me, so I’m hiding my face right now… if I see someone squatting, God makes me dream something about it. It’s like when I heard that police get to drive through red lights in order to catch the bad guys; this past August I drove through two stop signs within a week from each other, and one of them I actually got a ticket for!! In the first dream I was sitting on a toilet in a big bathroom stall, constipated, and there were many other people in the bathroom stall, coming and going, not looking at me but socializing and acting like it was a normal thing to do. Even though I said and I wanted privacy, I felt like there was an openness -didn’t feel judged or looked down on, but included. Then I saw a dad and his young daughter were the only ones in the stall with me, standing nearby, not looking at me but at each other, smiling. When I was finally able to go, the daughter noticed and gave a small smile to her dad, who smiled lovingly back at her. I saw that they had a hidden communication between them so that when she smiled, he knew exactly to what she was referring. In reality, my flesh wants privacy in this journey, but I don’t want it because I know it’s the opposite that I need. I also feel like I’m under a protective family umbrella. What I really want and need is patience and love as I find it so difficult to push through.

In my second dream I was in a room with my daughter Bella. I had my arms around a tall white square column that reached about one foot short of touching the ceiling. Then I became like the mom in The Incredibles, and I began stretching myself to make up the difference; I stretched my feet so that only my toes touched the floor, and I also stretched my neck and felt the top of my head touch the ceiling and yelled out for Bella to watch. As I felt the top of my head touch the ceiling, I continued to stretch so that my head could keep on going along the ceiling a short ways. Then I was back on the floor and I tried doing the same thing with a shorter table but that didn’t work; it needed to be with the tall white column. This is the super power I wish for, so that I could stretch myself in the spiritual so that I can do anything God asks me to do!! By faith I’m putting on my cape!

My kids and I watched Mulan Saturday evening. I hadn’t seen it for so long that I’d forgotten about the scene at the end where she gets presented a sword; when she turns the sword over, she sees the symbol that represents Devotion To Family. It reminds me of the dream God gave me where I had turned the instrument over and I saw that I needed to push a flat thing like a reed up to a line in order to make the instrument work. Yes, I’m devoted to my family, and because I love them, I will continue. We watched The Princess Bride last night and a few shorts in Netflix; Fetch and Downtown -the guy walked in the air!! Pray for me please because I really need to get this next recording done this week, hoping on Wednesday. God’s peace and blessings to you!! I tried recording today (Wednesday) but I wasn’t ready..☔️
