My Dream

For those who may not know...

I'm in a hearing from God class at my church...which is just amazing...

the teacher is just constantly hearing from him....and he's taught me to listen to God so well...through this book called dialogue with God....by Mark and Patti Virkler

it's so good read it....it'll clear up a bunch of stuff about prayer...with Scriptural references....they pick out so many verses to back up everything...

well we're goin' over verses that deal with dreams...cause that's one way God talks to us...and today i was just worn out...and cranky and frustrated...and i would just try to push into God....and all i was hearing was...Go to bed...

God just kept telling me to sleep....

well hears why...

he gave a me a dream...and I'm not exactly sure what it means...but i have an idea....

ok it was me at an amuzement park...huge one...everyone there is and everyone is split up into couples...except me...and they all just don't even care about...one another...it's so strange...

they just do whatever...and no one is happy there...and they just fool around...and don't even enjoy the privilege that they have...they just complain...

There was one person i remember specifically it was...Shane's dad...Mr. Starr...he was there...

but he wasn't one that was sorta' tossing off his wife....and not caring....he was just by himself...i can't remember what he said...

oh yah and everything was run by McDonalds....and they were celebrating something about the corporation...

but it began to rain....i do believe....

but then something picked up..and i sorta' jumped up in my bed...but even though i was awake...i still saw the end...which was everyone running in terror...

and i really think...that this is God telling me that...some sorta' corporate collapse or downfall is coming....and we upperclass.... countries...like america... are gonna' be hit hard...and it's gonna' rip the foundation out from under us...and the un-fun amuzement park is gonna' be broken and abandoned...

that is i think unless we repent...so i walked down the hallway....cause i also this was sorta' for a college too...cause college is sorta' an amuzement park in a sense...so i talked to this kid and as God was showing himself....and right as i'm about as i was gonna' ask him to accept Christ...

he gets a call from his dad that a big loan didn't go through or something...thousands of dollars...and it just sorta' lined up....and i really think that...is a specific instance of the dream...but it's much broader...

Love

Today was a completely take my breath away crazy good day...

God has just showered me with privilege...not only am i at college pursuing a career that i just love...i'm getting the opportunity to just reach all those who have any sorta' contact with me on a day to weekly basis...

Today it was just a culmination of all the things i've done in this first month that i've been here....

My art project which some of you may know as the Bible Bashing project....where for the past few weeks i've torn apart Bibles for my 3D foundations class trying to make an abstract modular piece

a modular piece is a sculpture that is made out of tiny little things..like one guy made a gorilla outa' hangers and got famous for it...

well God said to me in the dollar store when i was looking for materials....he just said BIBLES

and i was like what...Bibles? dollar stores have Bibles?

so yah they do i bought some and God just put this vision in my heart of a Bible just being ripped apart..and the pages flying out...sorta' like a whirlwind, fire, bush, tree...crazy things...and i was just blown away by that...

but as i worked so hard to get that real..it didn't work...

but i did twist the Bible and warp the back..and have all these pages flying out...which was really cool...

and we had to have one word to describe a process that occurs in nature...to describe...it...

and mine was gonna' be transformation...like how the Bible transforms you...and God does and all this stuff...but

as the critique or our projects started...he said...it's not about you...it's about me...your word is Love...

and it fit so well...

to just look at this completely trashed Bible that has all these cuts on the back..and all the inside coming out just to show love

and it's not gold plated it's a humble $1 paper back Bible that's giving it's all just to stand up...on this plain strait out...piece of wood...that's rigged with fishing line holding it in place...

I felt like i had crucified Christ...and so i...

told them my word was love..and they just all got it...

they were like the spine looks like it's been whipped like Jesus...and it looks like it's just giving it's...

and the inside is coming out...and they said it looked so POWERFUL...and that it wasn't just a weak feeble Bible...

i take no credit for any of this artwork...it was completely God all the way...i just praise him with all my heart....
