A short, simple dream with a profound message!

Since God created all of humanity with a capacity to dream, will we accept the totally unique, custom-made, one-of-a-kind gift that they are to each of us? St. Joseph for example, did just that, as we see at the beginning of Matthew's gospel.

Because we have been baptized into Christ, we too are now priest, prophet and king. This is why the following scripture applies to all of us: "Hear my words: if there is prophet among you, I the Lord make myself known to him in a vision, I speak with him in a dream." (Numbers 12:6)

"Unopened" dreams are like unopened mail; we fail to receive their message! Since God is the author of this message, we would surely wish to treasure the revelation and guidance that He is sending our way!

God reaches out to us in a myriad of ways, always wanting to connect with us and talk with us. Dreams, one of God's "languages" is one of the most exciting languages that we can learn.

We present 5 more dream categories - such as a dark dream for example - that will help you to decipher their meaning much more accurately.
