A New Perspective of Lightning

I had the most amazing dream the other night. You might remember the one shared with you a few issues ago about the Dalai Llama? Not to be repetitive about the whole dream thing, I must say this one trumps that.

We were among a large group of people around a large body of water and many of us had been swimming. Heading into another room to change into dry clothes, someone came in and pulled me out of the room announcing, "He's here, he's here...you must come out".

I saw a man in robes, and He was speaking, and someone had just asked Him where He came from. He started listing the different star systems where He reigned, most of which were unfamiliar to me. I'm not certain who He said He was, as He may have announced himself earlier, but everyone had the awareness, including me, that it was Jeshua Ben Joseph. As I walked out of the room, He looked at me, and coming over to me, took my hand, and led me aside to a long chaise to converse privately with me. Drawing my knees up to my chest, ashamed of my unkempt appearance, He mirrored my actions appearing to withdraw as well, showing my protective stance to be nothing more than a reaction of fear. As He was pulling me aside, He said, "You did not listen to The Word, I must speak with you." And I must admit, it had me terrified.

He said, "We are entering the time period of the 500 Lightning Bolts, and you have already begun to feel them. When they strike you, you say, "ouch, I felt that", and believe them to have hurt you. But this lesson is not about the ‘Bolts', it is for you to know that you are greater than they. And when they come, it is for you to know that it is not about you, but for the other person who is sending them to understand their actions. Do not be afraid. Do not fear them. You are greater than these Bolts."

The dream continued, and there were those who attempted to disrupt our private conversation and ask a question of their own. They were summarily dismissed. He got up to move back into the spotlight, seeing the larger audience getting restless, wanting Him. It seemed He had been talking with me for so long, I grabbed his hand saying, "Wait! What did you mean when you said I did not listen to The Word?"

He replied, "That was not for you, it was for Dorothy. When she was called out by the group, and in the center of the room, they came against her. And He was sacrificed, and not able to make up for what He had done. She did not listen to The Word."

And He walked away to begin addressing the larger audience with the Truths they so desired.

Different parts of this dream will speak to many of us, and be applicable to events transpiring in our lives right now. At lunch with a dear friend Karen, we spoke about this, and her feeling was that perhaps I had already been hit by many of these ‘Bolts" and there were very few left. Indeed, 2009 has been quite a year, and it does truly feel as if we have been struck energetically many times. We understand this as part of our process, our ‘Journey Home'. Perhaps we didn't realize it would be quite so hard at this juncture.

Nonetheless, He spoke to me of things only He would know, and in a voice that was reminiscent of my greatest Teacher. Upon awakening, I immediately went to my journal to transcribe the experience.

How blessed, how fortunate I am to have Jeshua come to me in my dreams and speak to me. The message, however, is for All of us.
