Hello Doves!!

I follow this board often- always reading but never contributing.  It wasn't until a few nights ago that I had a dream that many of you will enjoy.  It was only a 5 second dream, but one that I will never forget.

***
I was standing outside, looking into the sunny, clear, blue sky, much like I always do.  (I have always been fascinated with clouds, sunsets, stars, anything above us.)   As I was watching, a pinpoint in the sky turned brighter than the rest.  My eyes zoomed in on this spot.  I watched it get brighter and bigger, until I could make out the shape of a person surrounded by the brightness of the sun.  Chills went up and down my body in my dream because I knew it was Jesus!  I was overcome with sheer joy.  (Imagine a baby seeing their parent after a long day at work- the smile that consumes their entire face. The smile that causes the baby to flap their arms and feet around because they can not contain their excitement- this kind of joy.)  Joy that I have never experienced.  I started jumping up and down with my arms outstretched to Him.  On the second bound, I realized that my body wasn't actually moving off the ground.  I felt much smaller.  It was my soul that was leaping.  As I went down for my third jump, I woke up.  I woke with physical chills on my entire body.  I know that in that next bound, I would have escaped my body and went to be with Jesus, which is what I truly wanted to do.

The time draws near, Doves!  

Matthew 24:30-36

New International Version (NIV)

30 “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth[a] will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.[b] 31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

Much love,
