A Stand for Purity

These dreams are so vivid. Two nights ago, on Fourth of July eve, I dreamed I was in a room with three teen girls. We were at a youth camp. A lady with a steel pole came in and hit one of the girls on top of the head. I remember that in the dream I felt passionate anger because I wanted the girls to be safe. I was trying to protect them from being hurt.

Last night I dreamed about dancing. At first I was taking country western dancing at a place I had never seen before. I walked around to find the bathroom, and the scene changed. I was in an old natatorium by an empty pool. I found the bathroom, but by that time the class had ended. I got a phone call from a girl about my age. She was telling me that on the 31st I had a cell phone insurance payment. This wasn’t the first time she had called. I called her back, because I got a voicemail from her. As I was on the phone with her, I was trying to find my way back to the dance studio. I was walking through rooms filled with people. I kept hearing my name. It was nighttime, and the scene changed to my old Ballet studio at LaGrange College. I was trying to get into a dance class, so I asked a girl what the class was. She said it was a stage, costume and make up class. I said oh and walked outside. I then ran into a girl I know. I got a call from the girl who was trying to remind me of the cell phone insurance payment, so I was trying to go pay it. The girl I know needed a ride, so I got a call from her saying she was at the shell station. I went to where I thought the shell station was, but ended up at a new Sonic where future employees were being trained. I then realized that the Shell was directly across the street from the College where I took Ballet lessons. I felt very aggravated, as I headed back. I was mad because I felt that the girl I know was in harm, and I was trying to protect her from being hurt.

Thoughts about the dreams:

These are two more instances where I have had dreams about protecting young girls. You are showing me that You have given me a passion for protecting purity. I am praying for Your heart, and You are teaching me about Your heart. You are giving me Your heart. I can hardly handle it, so You are giving me it in bite sized pieces, and the first bite is purity. I know that You are going to carry all the burden, so Lord, right now I give You these dreams: the dream about the dog and parents attacking the little girl, the dream about the girls at camp, and the dream about dancing and Katie Golden. You are in control. You are in charge. You will be everything. Everything I need. All the time. I am noticing a trend in my dreams: Protecting girls. I asked You for girls to mentor. When I am serving, the focus is off of me and on You. I no longer have problems with sin, because I have no reason to. Jesus You are working through my life to bring freedom to others’ lives. Because, “When You have someone counting on You, You have reason to fix yo stuff ,” (One Prayer, Chris Hodges).

These dreams are further confirmation of the calling You have placed on my life. I am to protect girls. I will stand with You. I want to look, sound, act and think like You. I will stand for purity, bringing girls by the hand to Your throne.

God thank You for answering questions of my heart: that You will speak to me through dreams, and constantly commune with me in my sleep in a way that I will remember and understand. Also, You told me that eating late at night is not causing me to have crazy dreams. I went to sleep hungry, so I know the dream wasn’t from eating late.

Jesus, will You help me to understand my dreams and speak to me through dreams more? I know You will, so I want to thank You in advance. Help me to want to spend time with You all of the time. I want to ache to know You more than ever. God, I want the things under the sun to fade away, so that my passion for You intercedes on my behalf. All the cares of this world slowly fade away, until all I want, until all I see is You. Jesus, all I need is You.
