Sunday Morning Coffee Musings: Look At The View

Maybe I was feeling many things a few days ago when I had this dream. Some of the many things was God not caring about what I wanted or desired from the heart. I knew that was NOT true but I still felt it. And I like how God validated my feelings. It’s okay to feel something and God can see how you may feel this way but it doesn’t mean your thoughts about it are true. In fact, that Monday I received a financial blessing and I was grateful but, I still wondered about how I felt.

Well, I had this dream and it seemed like I was on some family vacation with relatives at a beach. After returning from the grocery store with my sister in law to prepare a big meal, everyone decided they had other things to do and places to go. I was so upset and frustrated because we spent money on all the food, I was prepared to cook, and now I would have to figure out where we (one of my friends and ex boyfriends from my 20s who passed away last year) would go. As I walked into our room, he was sitting in one of the white wicker chairs with the patio doors opened. Before I could vent or get a word out he said, “LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFUL VIEW GOD HAS ALLOWED US TO SEE!” I saw the golden, almost amber-ish color of a big moon setting over the ocean. You could see the light from the moon reflecting on the calm ocean waves. Instantly the frustration, irritation, left my body and then I woke up. I woke up feeling calm, warm, loved, and understood. Those were the four things I felt.

He always made me feel that way. Safe. Protected as well. I am still not sure what the message means entirely. But, I do know I am supposed to focus on the view and not so much as the other things going on around me with other people that I have no control over. Maybe I need to know that someone on Earth understands me and knows how to melt my emotions from frustration to peace other than God. Don’t be offended. God often sends people into our lives to help us, assist us. That part of the dream was very grounding.
