Energizer Bunny

Interpretation means a mental representation of the meaning or significance of something.

Last night, I was dreaming. I woke this morning feeling irked by it. Do you ever have those dreams? You know...the ones that you wake up from and just feel awful about. I do sometimes. There are times when I wake feeling that way and not remembering the dream.

Well, last night, I remembered it. It was not a pleasant dream. It made me feel formidable. I haven't been able to shake the feeling all day. I do for awhile then it comes back to haunt me.

It made me think of other times this has occurred. Over the course of my lifetime, there have been these moments, that have been burned into my mind. I can't shake them.

They are not necessarily good moments. Some are more my imagination at work. I've heard of some terrible situations and my creative mind takes over to put an image with it. For the most part, it acts as reminders. It helps me to remember what I've learned.

This time though it was different. It is acting as a sign. It is a warning sign. It is allowing me to know that I am in need of healing. Working in ministry, there are sometimes unexpectant things that occurr. If you are not cautious and you keep going; you will never deal with the problem.

Our minds are brillant creations of God. Our creator has made us to where we are allowed these moments. It's up to us how we intrepret situations. We are blessed to give different meanings to things for ourselves. A simple act of holding the door can mean several things to different people.

Allow yourselfs to take the time to reflect, intrepret, and love.
