Due to personal problems the BLOG was shelved temporarily but not permanently.  October 14, I asked Abba Father to send a dream appropriate for the BLOG.  Early October 15, I dreamed this:

I was sitting with a group of 8 or 10 ladies in a room with blank white walls, and a plain grey carpet.  There was a circle of straight backed chairs, arranged to seat guests. Two tables without lamps, pictures, or books were the only other furniture.  No dust anywhere.  As I looked about I thought, "How sterile."

Women were talking about the death of one of their friends.  "Poor Peggy", they intoned like a chorus in Greek tragedy.  "She was left, neglected and deserted by everyone before she passed away. " All of the women (expect me) nodded in agreement.  They thought she had been treated shamefully at the end of her life.

I spoke with authority:  "That is not true!  Her friends came to see Peggy regularly.  Her husband and mine were friends.  We spent time together despite her illness.  Others came too; family members, neighbors.  Her daughter came every day.  At the end, Peggy refused to see anyone anymore.  Why, I'm not sure.  She said she didn't want to be seen looking like she looked.  She always was particular of appearance and kept her home in 'apple pie' order."

A large woman jumped up from her chair across from me.  She had begun the discussion about "Poor Peggy".  She confronted me:  "You don't know what you're talking about! You didn't see what really happened.  I did."  She faced others now sitting in embarrassed silence.  With exaggerated horror she exclaimed, "Why they even moved Peggy into drafty, unheated farm shed.  She was laid on an old army cot, all alone in the dark, not enough blankets to keep her warm.  She was left there until her death!"

I responded vehemently: "Don't believe gossip, ladies.  Don't repeat lies.  Peggy told people she wanted to be left alone.  That was her wish.  Anyone who came to comfort her was turned away.  Yes, in her mind she was in a cold, dark place, but that was her choice.  That was not the decision of all those who loved her and wanted to help.

I WOKE UP. . . . . . . . . . . . .Here is what the dream spoke to me:
1.  Recognize and challenge your enemies' lies.  Satan come to "steal, kill and destroy."  Jesus comes so "you may have life and have it abundantly."  We need to expose lies, not accept them.  Some people would capture and control the thoughts of others, so go on the offensive.  Risk telling the truth.
2.  If our lives are too clean outwardly, whitewashed, without a speak of dust showing, something is terribly wrong.  We are human.  We need a savior.  We need to love each other, regardless of circumstances put off pretense, even when your life is sick, cluttered and spotted with sin, let Jesus and His people in.  We need each other. - What did this dream say to you?
