I had a wonderful dream during my short nap yesterday afternoon (4/20). I believe the first part was of a personal nature, but the second part is to share!
I suddenly found myself in Heaven. ( I saw myself clearly, but my surroundings seemed blurred; however I knew it was Heaven.) And I was dressed as a queen! I was wearing a big beautiful dress; I was decked out in jewels and had a gold, jeweled crown on my head. I was being carried on a royal litter (you know- one of those fancy seats set atop poles and carried by 4 buff men-LOL?!) This was part of a procession to marry THE KING!
I saw the King standing upon a stage-type-setting with His arms out, He was also richly dressed, though I couldn’t see His features.
At the same time this was going on, I saw my mom talking to someone (back on earth) using a narrator's intonation. Here’s what she said:
"She looks like a fool in the eyes of the world, but when she gets Home they will realize- she was the LUCKIEST girl in the world."
I woke up with my mom’s words ringing in my ears. I believe I was representing the entire Bride of Christ! So be encouraged!!! Though you may look like a fool for loving Jesus more than anything this world has to offer, you will soon be marrying the King of the Universe. IMAGINE THAT!!! :)
Hi Char!! That was an awesome dream! We are so extremely blessed beyond the imagination to be the bride of Christ Amen!! It is too good to be true but yet it is!!
Charity if Neal can have his four buff girls to shoffeur him around, then this here dog mutt would like four well permed poodles to cater me around.!!!
Loved the vision! It really had some righteous pazazz to it !!!
I also love that picture of the queen you posted, because it comes from a movie about Queen Esther and portrays the beautiful love between the humble Queen chosen "for a time such as this" to her adoring King!!

What a wonderful heavenly dream Charity! Wow! Thanks for sharing. Yes, we may look like a fool now to some people around us, but what tremendous blessings are waiting for us in heaven! xxx
Funny!!! I love hoe the Kangaroos are just laying on the handles... and what is Paul doing? Is he pulling its tail!!!
It is very simple mates. The tail is multi purpose. You pull the tail for the emergency brake. You twist the tail for the steering wheel(tail). And, of course, you lift the tail for the exhaust. I am sorry, it is early. Where's my coffee. Love, Laugh, Live in Jesus Christ our Lord! Neal
