This is cool, let me do another one
My Dream:
Several years ago I had a strange dream. Possibly as much as ten years ago. I was around 10 years old - if that. In this dream My family was walking down a walkway. A path, and beside it was a small stream, and just beside the stream, was a wall. I had a knowledge that my whole family was there, but the only people that I was actually aware of, and who participated in this dream, were me and my father. At the start, I was an infant. My father carried me along the path. But soon he set me down into the stream, where I floated - in some kind of basket - along the river beside him while he walked. Soon we came to a doorway in the wall by the stream and my dad entered. I got out of the stream by myself and suddenly was older. Still a child, but older. Before entering that doorway to follow my dad, I saw this evil looking beaver in the entrance. Terrified of it, I called to my dad. As he came back through the doorway I noticed that he didn't look like my father anymore, he appeared as a younger man. As if an older brother, which I've never had. As he comes my way I hear the beaver angrily whispering "No, no, no, no, no, etc..." And the "No's" faded out with the dream.
My Interpretation:
The walkway represents the walk of life. Simply living out life. When I gave my life to Christ as a child, that's when my father set me in the water in my dream. I subttly, without even knowing it, let the waters take me through life. My dad walks under his own strength through life until he comes up to this doorway. I see the doorway as the entrance into the way of sin, that is inevitable if you're walking through life under your own strength, rather than letting the streams of living water take you by God's power. My dad enters the doorway, but when I come to this same doorway, because of wanting to follow my dad, I see this beaver. The beaver actually represents alternatives. An alternative way to life. But I recognized the beaver as evil, when I suppose my dad didn't see it there. He just saw something appealing. Alternative ways to live life other than surrendering himself to the Lord. Humbling himself to get into the river as well. And here is where I believe it gets to what is to come in the future. I don't enter, but instead I see the lies and evil marking that doorway and I call my dad back. He returns to me as a new man. Younger, and more child-like, he has humbled himself. I do not recognize him because he is a new man. My brother in Christ. The devil and the demons aren't happy about this, but soon their objections fade more and more, until finally we wake up to reality.
