I had a real memorable dream once about trusting | Andrea de Michaelis – Creating my own reality, one thought at a time

I had a real memorable dream once about trusting. In the dream I was flying over the ocean. At first I was just flying, then I looked down and saw the earth below me. Then I got closer and saw the ocean, although I didn’t recognize a continent. As I descended, I began to get afraid because it was the middle of the ocean and I’m not a strong swimmer.

In the dream, I could feel real fear in my chest. As I descended and felt scared, I was standing upright and suddenly could feel small waves splash at my feet. I quickly said a prayer “help me deal with whatever is gonna happen” and I lifted my feet and I looked all around to see if I could see land. Suddenly I could see land, but waaaay off in the distance.

I quickly said a prayer that I’d make it to land and suddenly a row of tiles began appearing from me to the land. I was afraid I would be stranded and suddenly I felt the tile I was standing on begin to sink. The tiles were just barely a few inches beneath the water’s surface, and each one a long step apart from the next. I was afraid to move off my one tile, kind of frozen there, not wanting to step over the ocean part to get to the next tile.

I noticed that whenever I felt afraid, my tile would begin to sink. Whenever I said a prayer, it came back up and I’d be on the next tile automatically, and a step closer to the land. This dream was a lesson to me about trust. It was also a reminder to pray as though everything depended upon God, and act as though everything depended upon me. And trust that the Universe will sort it all out for me.
