Day 14: A Vacation you would like to take.

A few nights ago I had a very impactful dream.
I dreamed the world was ending.
No, it was not like Hollywood. The earth didn't 'blow up.'
I dreamed of Jesus Christ's second coming.
As I Christian, I know that Jesus Christ, God's one and only son, came to earth to save all man from their sin (AKA, all the bad things we have done and do). The Bible says that Jesus is going to come to earth a second time. I believe that when Jesus comes a second time, the world will end and be gone.
That is what I dreamed about.

My dream started in the car with my family and my best friend's family. We were driving to my house when suddenly the world got darker, almost a greenish color, like before a tornado. The wind started blowing really hard, in all different directions, but no tornadoes spun up. We tried to get into our garage but the wind kept pulling us back.
Somehow we managed to get inside. My family and friends were running around trying to get all our belongings in order.
My Grandparents from Canada were in my dream as well. My Grandpa who has Alzheimers called me over to him and told me to look up a verse in the Bible. I tried, but the Bible was full of nothing.

A few other things happened but I'm not going to post about them right now.

When I woke up I was thinking, "If the world ends today, am I ready to face God in judgement?" Through my dream I realized that I need to stop being so sluggardly (that's my new word, it means lazy) and need to reach out to people about God's love.
The part in my dream about my family and friends running around organizing things was to remind me that things are NOT important.
The part where the Bible had nothing of importance in it was to remind me how precious the Word of God is. The Bible is God-breathed. There could be a point in my life where I am persecuted as a Christian. I need to hide God's Word in my heart so even if my Bible is taken away, I will still know what it says.

I am making a choice for God. He has to be 100% of my life. Because I am a sinner, there is no way that God could ever be 100% in my life until I get to Heaven. But until then, I can try every day of my life to live as a Godly woman. I can try my hardest to make God as close as I can get to 100% in my life.

If I could take a vacation anywhere, I would go to Heaven. Preferably to stay. =)
I know my time on earth isn't over yet. I know I can still make a difference for God.

I want to end this blog post with a Bible verse that I've kind of adopted as "my" Bible verse:

In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted, and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphs, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. And they were calling to one another:
"Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory."
At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.
"Woe to me!" I cried. "I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty."
Then one of the seraphs flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the alter. With it he touched my mouth and said, "See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for."
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?"
And I said, "Here am I. Send me."
Isaiah 6: 1-8.
