Scripture supplies us with many examples of night dreaming, divinely inspired encouraging the dreamer to implement into their life all that their dreams repeatedly lead them to discover on their path through life.
If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere. ~ Frank A. Clark
Here lies the dilemma for most of us, when facing stumbling blocks obliging us to be enterprising, towards realising the goal that our dreams insist we should undertake. Reaching what appears to be an insurmountable barrier will often demoralise the explorer of life's journey of self discovery, sufficiently to surrender to their fear that they are unable to resolve the obstruction challenging their steps into the outer regions of their life's emerging story.
Adversity is the first path to truth ~ Lord Byron
A rough passage through life's storms obliging us to become enterprising coping with those periods when life appears to conspire against us, rewards us with growing experience providing the remedies enlightening our path towards realising all that our dreams supply for our journey of self discovery.
Our Saviour asks us to put out into the deep, trusting Him to lead us to reveal all that The Father has designed for our purpose filled life.
The missing step is always the next, when we walk in faith. Our own perception of timing, is predictably never in sync with Our Father's plans, designed to grow us into the person best reflecting His presence in our life's story. Patience becomes a valuable friend when our dreams appear to remain some distance in the future, while we spend our time growing into a much more patient explorer of all that grows us out of our belief that our timing is more important, than the dream we are constructing.
14 For God does speak—now one way, now another— though no one perceives it. 15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on people as they slumber in their beds, 16 he may speak in their ears and terrify them with warnings, 17 to turn them from wrongdoing and keep them from pride, 18 to preserve them from the pit, their lives from perishing by the sword.
~ Job 33
