Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night crying because of a dream you just had? I have. Normally it's because the dream had to do with the death or sickness of a family member or a friend. But not this time. I've never had a dream like this before....
There I was, sitting on top of a hill where a breeze blew the grass, making the long blades appear like flowing water. The view from where I sat was magnificent. The green rolling hills were below me, and the blue mountains towered above them, creating a beautiful horizon. There was no sun. But there was a soft, warm, buttery light cast over everything I could see. As I looked beyond the mountains, the world seemed at peace. For a while I was satisfied just sitting there admiring the splendor. But sooner than I hoped, I found myself coming back to reality. I was just a girl - an unsatisfied, incapable, sinful, hopeless, jealous, broken, burdened, confused girl. While I sat there pondering all the cons about myself and my life, the world seemed to darken. All of the sudden, feeling like someone was watching me, I turn around. There He was, walking up the hill towards me. He didn't stop. He continued climbing the hill until He stood right in front of me. Confused as to why He hasn't said a word, I look up at Him. Still not speaking, He looks down at me, making eye contact. As I look into His eyes, I become overwhelmed. I instantly knew why He didn't speak. His eyes spoke louder than thunder in a storm. They were filled with love, pity, comfort, assurance, blessings, promises, truth, wisdom, forgiveness, acceptance, strength, satisfaction, healing, gentleness, perfection, and breathtaking beauty. They drew me to tears. As my vision blurred, I buried my head in my hands and broke. At once, He reached down and picked me up, gently standing me on my feet. He brushed my hair out of my face before carefully wiping away the tears from my eyes. When I could see again, I realized who He was - my Savior. Overwhelmed with joy, love, and awe, I fall to my knees crying. This time He took my hand. I glanced up at Him to find Him smiling down at me. My mind seemed to be washed clear of all the things, I had no longer than a few moments ago, thought about. In His eyes I was perfect. He was completely satisfied with me.....
