Last night, I dreamt that a storm was coming and that the Lord’s children prayed that the storm waters would be blessed by God and become the Holy Water that washes upon the face of the earth to cast out evil that is in and upon it. The air would become pure and you could breath in the holiness of the moment.
I woke to find a fine layer of snow upon the ground and I pondered the dream.
Both the Old Testament and the New Testament promised to give old men dreams:
Joel 2:28 says, “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and daughters shall prophesy, and your old men shall dream dreams and your young men shall see visions.” Luke reminds us of this in Acts 2:17 when he writes, “And in the last days it shall be, God declares, that I will will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.”
But for the mater of interpretations, Genesis 40:5 says, “They said to him, ‘We have had dreams, and there is no one to interpret them.’ And Joseph said to them ‘Do not interpretations belong to God? Please tell them to me..” And yet, in 1 Corinthians 14:28 says, “But if there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep silent in church and speak to himself and to God.” And yet, the memory of the dream remains.
