God, is this it? Is this all you’ve got? What else? What else!?
I want to tell you something that I don’t really tell anybody, and it’s something that’s been on my heart for a long time.
I don’t dream.
They say that everyone dreams, but that you just don’t always remember them. If that’s the case, I don’t remember having a single dream my entire life. I don’t even know what a dream is.
There are countless accounts throughout the Bible of God communicating with His people through dreams. Jacob, Abimelech, Laban, Pharoah, Joseph, Solomon. During the day of Pentecost, Peter declared that because God’s Spirit was poured out on His children, they will prophesy, see visions, and dream dreams (Acts 2:17).
I don’t want to be exempt from this! I love my God. I love Him so much, and I want to know Him from every angle. I want to see Him from every perspective, and a God-given dream is one perspective that I have never seen my God in. I want to know every facet of Him.
For months now, every night, I ask God to come hang out with me in a dream. It may sound silly, and a little weird, but the God of Jacob and the God of Joseph is a mystery to me. I want to know Him like they knew Him. I thought that coming on the World Race, I would immediately start to experience God in incredible new ways, and the truth is, I haven’t.
I’m not giving up hope that I will experience God in new ways. I will never stop asking, but if I never receive a dream, if I never see Him do crazy, supernatural things, I’m still content with who God is to me.
He has satisfied the resolve. His name is Jesus Christ.
