Open our eyes, and let faith arise

God strengthens me in million ways He could and I may not notice most of them. 

Speaking of God, I want to share something with you today. Today is dated 6th of July, 2011. It's a Wednesday and usually on certain Wednesdays, we had Christian Society Movement (CSM) in School, after the lessons. We had a great sharing moment with each other and I felt an urge to share this particular sharing from my dear friend. I'm not really close to her but we got to know each other thanks to CSM.

I can't remember the exact thing that she told but from what I understood, I'll try to recall it back. To start with, she mentioned about having a dream whereby she was spending her time with her friends in a room. They were laughing and having fun when one of them spotted Jesus outside. Of course, all of them had a sudden wave of mind to invite Jesus in, regardless of why Jesus is on earth, fully human. As they were greeting Jesus, they could make out the expression on Jesus's face. It was not a happy one. Jesus looks sad, there were tears streaming down his beautiful face. 

Something unforeseen happened within seconds after their encounter with Jesus. "Bang" !!! There were gunshots in the air. 'They' fire their guns, though I actually can't recall was it numerous times or a single shot, Jesus was shot. The worst part of it is the 'shooters'. She described them as wearing robes and turban like Arabic people. Or, at least for me I called it Aladdin hat :D. There were precise explanations connected to our situation., that is being a Christian in our school. I would like to keep that part of the issue confidential. 

Following up, she asked God upon arising what does the strange dream really mean. She also added that random dreams would fade away almost abruptly when we awake. Isn't that so? The best part was, God revealed that the anti-Christ is arising and in the dream, 'they' was actually 'shooting' Jesus. Jesus's tears in the dream made a big "PANG" to my heart. While I am busy worrying about other things on this earth, I didn't even realized the changing of our surroundings. As Christians, or in another words, follower of Christ, we must have courage to stand firm for our religion. This does not mean it's for out of the sense of dignity we have for ourselves but let it be an act out of pure love of God. 

Hence, let us open our hearts to God. I don't want to see Jesus got shot and fall, neither do you, I believe. Even though it's just a dream. I want to make a silent resolution to forget about the 'feel-good' ways I've been living and start on a more alert, secure one, and at the same time moving forward to what's been planned for me to discover. For God is a loving God, always.
