Christmas Story
Christmas Story is a spiritual dream that takes place at a vacant outdoor
Christmas tree lot. This time of year celebrates the birth of our risen Savior.
It is a time for giving and refreshment through abiding faith in a living God.
The Bible teaches God is spirit. Other kinds of spirits exist too. Sprits can
range from angelic and benevolent to demonic in nature. Spirits can roam freely
in dreams without any physical barriers. We all have spirit that often links
with emotions. Our spirit includes things we know on conscious level. The night
of November 23, 2006 communicates via dream the synthesis of two separate
spirits, each with private agendas.
Trees are bundled with cords and lean against adjacent building walls. More
trees lean together in clusters. Customers mill about, looking for that special
tree to adorn their home. A middle-aged woman approaches the large spruce tree.
She thinks, “I can’t afford to buy a whole tree.” She plans to take two, perhaps
three, lower branches home. “They won’t notice at night,” she thought. She had
purposely chosen the beautiful blue spruce tree near the back of the lot. She
looked around to make sure nobody was watching and began twisting the branch
with increasing vigor. Her frail hands finally broke the branch near the tree
trunk. She struggled to loosen the bough completely. “This is taking too long,”
She scolded herself.
The second branch proved more formidable. With all her might, she broke the inch
diameter branch near the base. She swung the branch back and forth in her
attempt to remove it. She was nearly done when the lot attendant saw her. “What
the heck is going on?” he thought. He quickly crossed the yard, arms
outstretched and waving frantically. All the while saying aloud, “Hey lady, you
can’t do that...Why are you?” He caught her red-handed. “I only wanted a couple
of branches,” she replied sheepishly. “This isn’t worth calling the cops,” he
thought. He proceeded to chastise her with an ugly tone and send her away. He
became more disgusted than angry. A bit of compassion surfaced. “Take them and
go!” I experience their moods. I hear their thoughts.
Her living spirit interacted with his. Hers includes plans to take the branches,
visualizing them in her house and involve emotions. His spirit in contrast,
exhibits surprise followed by disgust. A third presence mediates between the
two. Three minds converge in the absence of hard lines or mysterious clouds.
Mutual accord dissolved the man’s anger and permitted my awareness of the entire
incident. His thoughts and feelings arose from his lot attendant obligations.
The one takeaway gift you have is recognize your ability to discern spirits (1
Corinthians 2:14). Conflicts suggest a vacuum, where the Lord enters with you
(or me in this case). Intercessory prayer requests the Lord’s presence to
mediate resolution according His will. God exists between two distinct things,
whether a customer and salesperson, men and women or heavenly bodies that
involve lunar/solar calendars. Use what you know about God to measure where a
spirit sits in relation to yourself and others. Certainly, dreams consist of
fragments about our individual life. However, our dreams may encounter spirits
belonging to others.
Are you a pastor, educator or a student of the Holy Bible? Timeemits.com seeks
anointed people to review and contribute to the Ages of Adam ministry. Ancient
lunar/solar calendars like the Jewish and Mayan calendars provide the background
to understanding early time. Ancient calendars of the Holy Bible use differences
between the moon and sun, numerical matching and a 364-day calendar year to
describe X-number of days that match with X-number of years. Ages of Adam is a
free read at http://www.timeemits.com.
