My feet
Dream 31
02-01-2016
Before I went to bed last night I asked God to give Louis a dream about me. I had forgotten God's ways, and didn't expect I would get a dream too.
I was with a group of guys and we were going about doing different things, walking to somewhere, but as a group. When all of a sudden I noticed I had lots of pain in my feet. I investigated and saw I had loads of thorns penetrating through out my feet. They were green shafts some 18 inches or longer, some of them going through my ankles. I had to sit down and remove them. When I sat down and looked down my legs to my feet, I could see some of these shafts of plants were attached to logs and trees. Extending out beyond my feet. I got half way done removing them, when the group started to move again. Some of the guys looked at my problem and saw how terrible it was. But most of the time it was indifference. I wasn't bothered by it. They had their own things to do. I kept stopping alone the way to try and remove more that I had missed. Then we found another place to sit down. All the chairs in this building we stopped at, began to get occupied by the other guys. I wanted to sit in a lot of light so I could see what I was doing and see where more obtrusions were. All the guys had a place to sit, but not me. So I went out side to sit on the pouch in the sunlight to work on my feet.
The scene changes right before I wake up, to where all of us guys were in a room walking around. Louis comes up to me and ask. “Are you the guy with thorns in his feet?”. I answered “yes”.
I woke up.
I was reminded last year, when I was at the shelter, God suggested to me to get rest. It was confirmed three times through people. I tried to obey, but had no power to do so, so I gave it up to God to handle. One striking confirmation was when, through a dream or real life I do not know, but through a drunk man, he turns his head towards me and says firmly “Get rest”. I know and recognize it was the Holy Spirit. The man was drunk, but like a sudden spirit possession, a sober spirit awakened inside just for that moment to speak to me, and then the man returned to his drunken state.
Some time ago I asked God, why I should get rest, but I didn't receive an answer till this dream last night. I am unable to do the things of the Lord till I get all those thorns out of my feet. To stop causing me pain while I walk with Him. Yeah... so much pain, embedded in my feet.
There was a big wind last night in the parking lot. Waking up this morning I went out side to see all the lawn chairs thrown about. One lawn chair was embedded in the gate so unless removed I may not drive out to work. Message to me is to stay in place and don't think about having to leave the Bridge Home, for now. “Get rest”

I didn't know all this.
