The Experience and Interpretation of Dreams
The Bible is littered with dreams of a high spiritual nature, dreams interpreted by those with a high spiritual acumen, dreams of portent, dreams to come and dream experiences of a high prophetic or mystical nature. To dream during sleep is human and to seek meaning from an activity we do for one third of our entire life is natural. Not everybody does so anymore in this day and age, but I’ve taken the effort of keep track of my dreams and have found them, every once in a while, to be profoundly spiritual and mystical. Let’s explore some of these dreams I’ve had and hopefully spur you to do the same if you don’t keep a dream journal already.
