Having traveled long in a foreign land, my companion and I stopped alongside the road to gaze out over the horizon; a viewpoint that allowed us to see far into the distance of crevice, valley, and mountain; I sensed it was nearing time to go home.
My companion, a lovely man, both in demeanor and looks, was someone with whom I shared a deep and abiding affection; while not explicitly expressed, I sensed love in its deepest form.
Turning the car around he, being the driver of our vehicle, began our journey towards home.
To my surprise he took a turn, informing me there was one more stop. Knowing the day was drawing to an end; the full moon now showing in the sky, I requested he seek my attention when it was time to depart as the person we were about to visit was someone with whom I could easily become distracted. It was important to me that I be ready to leave on time.
While visiting with this woman, I learned she had purchased tickets to an event. However, not only had she purchased her own ticket, she had allowed several friends to take advantage of her by putting the cost of their tickets on her credit card. I counseled her to inform them immediately, rather than waiting until just beforehand, that they were responsible to pay for their own tickets and thus were to pay her their due portion now.
Shortly after this, I was reminded that she and I had planned to attend a concert; an event for which I had previously purchased a ticket. However, as this event was in October, I informed her I would no longer be able to attend the concert because I was getting married before October. I offered to give her my ticket so she could take another friend.
The scene switched to where I was busy trying to sort out clutter surrounding me: bills, papers, and other such items when I heard the sound of the most beautiful singing. It was the voice of my companion. I expressed to him how beautiful it was suggesting that we sing a duet.
My attention was now fully upon him as he sang a song about 3 days. I don’t now recall the words, but I knew clearly he was singing of the salvation of mankind through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
Once again I was struck by how beautiful he is, and how much I loved him, taking notice of his lovely rich olive bronze-colored skin and thick brown hair. I’m unsure of his ethnicity as it seemed nonspecific so the closest I could describe would be somewhere in South America such as Brazilian.
After he finished singing we embraced and spoke of marriage; words are inadequate to describe the deepness of my longing for that connection. And then I laughed with joy upon realizing, and thus pointing out, that I was already wearing the diamond ring, and how everyone thought we were already married.
As I felt the exquisite tenderness of his cheek next to mine I woke up…
This is a dream I had on 4-4-2020. I wrote down the details of it, so as to not forget it, at that time. However, this dream has been embedded in my heart and mind ever since. I have a strong sense there is deep symbolism within it.
Waking from this dream was actually emotionally painful, but each time it’s brought back to my mind I find it very comforting.
My understanding of this dream is as follows:
1) our “journey” is our “sojourn” of this earthly life.
2) my companion is Yeshua (Jesus) whom I have, through my faith and submission to Him, granted that he be the “driver” of my life. I look to Him to be the author and finisher of my journey.
3) I recognize and understand it is only through and from Him (Yeshua, Jesus) that I can experience love in its deepest form, as in mortality, we human beings, while desiring such a love and connection fall short of being able to provide it.
4) personal salvation and eternal life come through personal choice, thus another person cannot “pay” for that ticket for us or another.
5) I believe we are now living in what is commonly referred to as “the last days” and I believe in my dream it was being shone that journey was nearing it’s end, but there was one more stop to make.
I believe today is the day of our salvation, I believe it’s important to make these eternal choices now, as I believe soon we will see our Lord and Savior.
I think of this dream as representing “blessed hope”.
