Papa, I love you. I worship you. Thank-you for your hand in leading my footsteps.
You’re welcome My daughter. You are Mine. Caroline, I have a word for you today.
Papa, what is it?
You are Mine and I love you.
I love you too Papa. Putting it into the for-front of my mind, that I belong to you Papa/Jesus, helps me to be able to rest. I’m so thankful..
Reflection
Hello everyone, welcome to today’s page in my journal! The Lord wakes me up most nights at certain times after He’s given me a dream, which I sometimes don’t know the meaning of but other times I do, and it’s such a great comfort to my heart. I absolutely love sharing what God is doing in my heart, hoping it’ll inspire you to spend time with God everyday and grow the most fulfilling relationship with Him!
This morning when I awoke to go to Shopgym I had these lyrics in my heart, “When I open up my mouth, miracles start breaking out; I have the authority, Jesus has given me. When I lift my voice and shout, every wall comes crashing down, I have the authority, Jesus has given me.
I had dreamt that I was getting into something. I saw my hand as I put it onto something (sensing it was a car) as I was getting in. I also vaguely saw something on one of my fingers… I was really excited because this time as I was going to do something, I had 100% assurance that I was going to do it with some kind of help, which would make it a lot easier than the last time I did it. I’m sensing more of God’s anointing as I’m following him and doing what he’s asked me to do.
Later when I came back from Shopgym I had these lyrics on my mind, “I won’t be quiet, my God is alive, how can I keep it inside. Praise the Lord, oh my soul. Praise the Lord.”
I continued working on my message/skimming one of the shorter books I got from the library. Then I went back to bed because I had only gotten 4.5hours of sleep (we watch the next Starwars movie with Ray -Episode 8). I can definitely identify with Ray, how she’s learning to recognize and use the Force and how I’m slowly growing in knowing the authority I have in Christ. In my nap I dreamt a lot about a big pool. I dreamt that I was in a really big and wide outside pool with Bella. There were some other people there too. Sometimes waves would come like we’d be in he ocean, and they’d always come from one side. Near the middle of the pool was a waterfall that was also a slide. Then further along there was another more narrow water slide that went down into a smaller area which was like a room. One time I looked back and saw that a larger than huge wave was coming. A wave had already come before that and then I saw there wasn’t any water in the pool. I saw the floor of the whole pool and saw it was wet and a few people were walking on the wet floor that was reflecting the light of the sun. Then I looked back and saw a huge wave come, and I was a bit alarmed and braced myself for the impact. Then I was on the other side of the pool and I had Bella with me. I saw again that a larger than huge wave was coming, so I braced myself and Bella, telling her to hold her breath. I was squinting my eyes, holding my breath but there was no crash of a wave on top of us. I kept on taking a deep breath, thinking it was coming but the crash never came. I half opened my eyes and saw that we were already in deep water, but the wave was carrying us up and along as it moved with out heads always on top of the water. Then another wave took me along the wider part and carried me exactly to the left slide that was near a wall; I think there were two slides going down into the smaller area. Then I was in the pool again except it wasn’t very deep, and I had my grey skirt on, one that’s been hanging in my closet for a number of years (like the black/white dress I wore a few weeks ago). There was a waterfall in the middle of the wide pool and I was standing right on top of it. Someone was beginning to push me over and I didn’t want to go because I had already changed; I already had my skirt on so I didn’t want to get wet again -so then he stopped trying to push me; in that particular scene the waterfall also had a slide. I’m wondering what this last part represents.. I don’t want to resist what God wants to do in my heart/life, so I need to pray about that.
Then the scene changed again where I was standing on the side of the wide pool and I saw someone pulling a truck across it, coming towards me, right on top of the waterfall. Then I looked to my left and saw a car coming towards the truck in the water current, and I yelled for them to hurry so the car wouldn’t crash onto them. So the person pulled the truck harder to get across quicker, and he made it just in time. As the car was floating down the river/water current in the pool, I saw that it was very small and was made out of thin plastic that had been blown up with air. I saw it fall over the waterfall and float away.
Then I had a quick dream that we lived in the country and we only had a bathroom outside, except it didn’t have any walls, just a toilet. I vaguely remember knowing that we had a bathroom in the basement that needed renovations. In my dream I was done going to the bathroom and was getting up to flush and wash my hands. The feeling I had was, I was so used to going to the bathroom outside where anybody could see that it didn’t bother me in the slightest. I wished though that we had a bathroom inside, not for privacy reasons, but for comfort, not needing to walk all the way outside.
Yesterday I saw on a licence plate on my street, 444, so neat!! This morning my weight workout was Thrusters, 77lbs, and afterwards we did kettlebell deadlifts (21-15-9) and 400m run before each set of deadlifts -I love doing these types of workouts.. I’m so excited, we’re finally going to the States this weekend! We’re bring our dog to someone in the city around 10:30, then heading out to Minneapolis/St. Paul for two nights. On Sunday we’ll head out to Noah’s Ark Waterpark and stay there for the day and then go back to our hotel. Then early on Monday morning we’ll go to Mall of America for a bit, then head back home. We’ll be stopping at Target of course! I’m thinking part of my dream is showing that we’ll be going to the waterpark, but I know it has other meanings as well. Pulling the truck represents that I need to hurry and finish my message and record it and possibly present it before it’s too late. I think God’s timing is flowing like a river, so I need to hurry! I’ll be continuing to read on the road. I’m going to miss church and my caramel macchiato this Sunday.. I’m sure I’ll get one from another coffee shop or Starbucks. Normally if I go to Starbucks I get a hot green-tea latte with matcha leaves. The verse above came to my mind after I was done writing my Reflection; I know this was the Holy Spirit! I don’t have time to check my punctuation, so I apologize for any mistakes:) I’m not sure if I’m going to write on the weekend, so I’m praying that you’ll all have a wonderful weekend… Many blessings.. ☕️
September 2: This morning at 3:14 I woke up with a song/lyrics on my mind, “We, are never ever ever, gonna get together. We, are never ever ever, gonna get together.” This is actually the second time I heard these lyrics in the last little while. A week or two ago I also heard them, but then I also heard different lyrics so I chose to not post these. I’m not sure why I would hear these.. When I woke up at 3:14, I also had had a dream where I was pulling out something from deep within my throat. I pulled and pulled, and then I saw what had been in my throat; it was a clear plastic heart blow-up thing that was filled with air, and it was the size of my fist. It had a string attached to it that was about 10 inches long. I was disgusted and surprised because I thought I had thrown it out before already. I’m not sure what this represents other than spiritual blockage. I’m actually really excited about this dream because it means that if a spiritual blockage has been taken out or will be taken out, then I’ll be able to be more bold when I speak! During the night I also saw yellow in a dream. I had slept again before writing it down and then woke up again, knowing that I had forgotten what I had dreamt. Then at 5:37 I woke up again having seen yellow again (not with an object). Yellow means to slow down, but I’m not slowing down with putting my message together; I think it means that after I’ve completed what I need to do now I can slow down. This morning as I got up at 8, these lyrics were on my mind, “You are my champion. Giants fall when we stand undefeated, by the one who has concurred it all. I am who you say I am…” Okay, have a great weekend everyone…
Sept 5th -Tuesday: I’ve not had alone time with God today until around 9:00PM.. I’m going to Shopgym in the morning at 5 tomorrow, then having alone time with God, then working on my message, going to the dentist at 1:00 for a cleaning, then working on my message again. I’m planning to record early Thursday then going to a funeral in the afternoon. I did a lot of reading on the road during the long weekend. I wish I had time to write everything I want to say! God gave me a dream last night but I’ll need to post it tomorrow. I can still hardly believe I went in all those rides!! When I saw “The point of no return,” and saw it was a narrow yellow slide, I knew that was the one God wanted me to go on. And then I remembered that there were two really high waves in my dream, I thought that God wanted me to go on the one beside that one, and I’m so glad I did! I just closed my eyes and went (I actually wished I had opened my eyes earlier than I did.) I also sensed God saying to trust him and that He would take care of me, so then I was good! I got heels from Target, two pairs, so excited!! The brand of both my shoes is, A New Day.. Good night everyone, many blessings to you…
