A Joyful Horror

Around the age of twelve years old, I had a dream.

I never told a soul about the dream I had because I didn’t think it was important at the time.
Besides I never understood it either, it was all very bizarre. I basically forgot it until some years ago when it came to mind. I can assure you that this is very serious, I’m not putting you on. I have been a Seventh - day Adventist since age nine when I was baptized. I didn’t even understand why I would have a dream like that. What could it mean?
I basically forgot it for many many years. However I want to share it with you today.

 In my dream I was standing on the lawn outside of my house and I was staring at the sky. I was looking intensely
at the second coming of Christ! Yes, like everything you would imagine, except it was just me by myself. All I remember is how I felt in the dream, I never felt so happy and so excited. It began as a small dark cloud that increased in size until it was visible.

Jesus was sitting on a throne in the sky with a seashore of angels around him just like how you see it in the pictures.
I remember shouting his name with all my voice, "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!” while smiling and laughing full of joy. I even went on my knees, raised my hands towards the sky and just adored my savior as he was coming closer and closer to earth. I even saw how he looked! He looked just like how he is portrayed in the pictures with white robe, long hair, golden crown on his head, bright  lights and the whole works.Wow! You just dont get it, he was sitting on his throne and the throne was moving in the sky! Right. Unbelievable, eh!

However, what happened next really disturbed me- immediately the atmosphere changed! As I was looking towards heaven adoring my savior, the figure sitting on the throne suddenly turned into the devil as without warning. Have you ever seen Jack in the box? It was like Jack in the box! My Jesus popped and transformed into the most ugly monster Ive ever seen!The figure made a terrifying squeal- that woke me up instantly. I remember laying in bed as firm as a rock. I didn’t even open my eyes right away. I was stiff scared.

I am not going to tell you what I believe the dream means but I will say thing are not what they appear to be- it was an illusion .However  I will admit I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't real because I thought I was going to Heaven. I got over it almost instantly.I hope that God will help you to understand what he wants you to understand if it is that you are destined to read this. You cant blame me for having a dream, especially one like that. My job is done. God bless you all!
