Another dream reveals the truth

[Jacqueline]

A few nights ago I had a really bad dream. My family and I got off a bus going to my job. I had just yelled at one of the little kids for running in the street on a red light. This kid and I started going back and forth about him crossing on the red with him saying that he didn't and I telling him that he did. There was some men working on the street. One of the men yelled across the street at me that he didn't run the red light and I in turn yelled back that I wasn't blind the light was red. He yelled back yea, but I'm controlling the traffic today not the lights and I flashed green.

I was going to yell back at him, but at the corner of my eyes I saw something run into the street so I turned to see what it was. It was my little one year old nephew. A second after I notice that it was him I saw a truck race pass toward him. I started running, but I was to late. The truck hit him. I ran until I could see him lying on the ground clearly. I stopped a scream trapped in the throat. I tried so hard to release that scream, but I couldn't.

I sat up in bed. Two things ran through my mind as I sat there. One I need a cig. The other I need to pray. I got up and went to have a cig and then I prayed. As I got back in bed I thought to my self why did I go have a cig before I prayed?

The next morning as I was on my way to work that question played over and over in my head. Why did I go have a cig before i prayed? Then by the grace of God the answer and given me. It just pop into my head out of nowhere. You choose the cig to comfort you instead of praying to me for comfort.

Man that was a completely shock. At first I was like can it really be that that is why it has been so hard to stop smoking? I use it to comfort me? After reveiwing when I smoke I've come to see that that is actually right. I do. This knowledge hasn't made it easyer to stop smoking, but it has made me stop and think before I smoke. I guess stopping is the next step.

God Bless You

Your dream life is your spiritual monitor. It explains what you are going through in the physical life.

What most of us call dream is not what it is, rather it is an insight to what is going on in the spirit world.

Very interesting and insightful, Jaqueline.

Jacqueline, A revelation from God ! A conviction in your Heart ! Maybe Gods trying to free you from nicotine ? Oh Lord Thank you for those convictions even when we don't expect them !!!

I agree with Leonard.

Your insight reveals growth in your understanding.

Jacqueline,

Aren't revelations wonderful? I had an experience similar to yours. A few months ago I was at my computer smoking and drinking my beer just as I had done almost every night before that for years. When I had my revelation I simply looked at my hands and asked why. I looked to my left hand and there was my beer and said "I don't need this to live". I then looked in my right hand to the cigarette and said " I don't need this to live". I stopped everything then and closed my eyes and prayed to Jesus to enter my heart and save me from myself. Since that night I have stopped smoking, drinking alcohol and even gave up caffeine. I want nothing in my life I can call an addiction. Addictions are binding and very much distractions. The day after I asked for help my cravings were almost non-existent. Sadly I broke down that evening while in front of my computer. The next morning I woke up and smoked one without a thought and I found myself in pain for the next hour. I took that as a warning. I can only reason that God does only what is absolutely necessary. But when chastening is needed he will not hesitate and he will do so with love. Never was I so happy to be punished.

I now attend service weekly as well as Sunday School. I must admit that I learn and witness more here at worthyboards than I have at church so far. I am most thankful to God for my Brothers and Sisters in Christ here at Worthyboards.
