regarding
dreams....
Compared to Andrew's dreams - dining with Lions in Africa, riding motorbikes over ocean waves, and such, my dreams are relatively boring.
If dreams reveal something of the heart mine might reveal a fearful heart but perhaps also an expectant heart. I love witnessing miracles while I sleep. I don't mind some traumatic happenings behind closed eyelids if I get to watch bold prayers answered, victorious healings and God coming through once again.
The night before last...Heidi and I were journeying through India. The dream had Papa and Mama in it. Seth, Joseph and Trina played roles as well. Tweety only 2 or 3yrs. My pleasantly uneventful dream was interrupted by small cries. I awoke to find myself in another dream. Manly beside me and the Zekester crying for me from the next room. I'm a Mum now and a wife. Married nearly a year and living in a pleasant land called New Zealand. Heidi's journeying through Tennessee with a heart overflowing with tender love and passion for Abba. Seth and Joseph have tripled from the size they were in the that sneak peek of them I got in my dream. Katrina's off finding house jobs so she can one day visit Andrew and I. I never thought being awakened by crying could be peaceful or pleasant but somehow lying there next to Andrew with fresh memories of ones I love on my mind and a renewed sense of awe at the place I'm in now I couldn't have been happier to answer the beaconing calls from that cute little bundle in the cradle.

People talk of their 'dream home,' 'dream job,' or a 'dream life.' What back drop would I choose? What characters would fit into my dream story? What smells, sounds and sights would set the scene? I have only what I know to draw on and I wouldn't want to leave anything out. Each person must fit, I'd like each color to be there and even each taste. God, I'm rather happy with what you've done down here so I can't wait to see what you've come up with for up there!
Hey... I love you Eden and I love reading your words. I love what He's done in your life and I love hearing your beautiful heart poured out. "I wanna be just like you when I grow up." (Just read that the other day on a birthday card you wrote me back in the HAWNI days.)
