Last night I had an interesting dream. Pretty detailed too. I looked it up online to see what it might symbolize, and it seemed to match pretty well. One of the meanings it gave me was "vengeful feelings...".
All day today I couldn't stop thinking about my dream. I know I will never forget it. I kept wondering what the reason was for me having it.
Well, tonight at The Vine was pretty special, I think, because it talked about FORGIVENESS. Now I feel like my dream was a sign that I have this bitterness towards someone and I need to forgive that person for the reason I have that bitterness for them. (Did that make sense?)
God also reminded me that I HAVE TO KEEP PRAYING! Last night before I went to bed, I was really angry and told God I was done with praying (not in general but just for something specifically).
Well today He told me something interesting: I need to clean out my heart by forgiving someone and letting go of that bitterness, and then I have to keep praying. Those are the two hardest things for me to do right now, but He's right: my relationship with Him won't be right until I do.
But now I have a question: If you forgive someone, are you supposed to tell them you forgive them? Or do you just forgive them in your heart and move on? I really don't know what to do after I've "forgiven" them. I want to mean it if I say it, but I don't want to say it unless they actually care to hear it.
Whatever. I'm gonna go to sleep. I had a good laugh in my seat at The Vine tonight... thank you, God, for telling me things I didn't want to hear. ; )
Maybe tonight I'll have a better dream? Goodnight. : )
