A Cosmic Romance: When 'I Do' Means 'We Are One
Dear reader –
I had the strangest dream last night. I was wandering through this massive, ethereal city - all gleaming walls and shimmering streets. But here's the weird part: the city was alive. Not in a creepy way, but... it felt like it had a heartbeat, a soul.
As I explored, I kept hearing whispers. They were saying something about a bride and a lamb. At first, I thought I'd stumbled into some bizarre wedding, but then it hit me - this was straight out of Revelation!
The city wasn't just a place; it was a person. Or maybe... a people? It's hard to explain, but it felt like every building, every street was made up of countless individuals, all merged into this one magnificent being.
And then, out of nowhere, this brilliant light appeared. It was too bright to look at directly, but I knew, somehow, that this was Christ. The whole city seemed to lean towards him, like a flower turning to the sun.
I woke up with my head spinning, filled with all these jumbled thoughts about God and humanity, individuality and unity. It's left me wondering - what if our relationship with the divine is more intimate, more transformative than we ever imagined?
This dream has stirred up so many questions. I can't help but see echoes of it in bits of Scripture I've read before. That verse in Ephesians about the church being Christ's body - it hits different now.
I don't know what to make of all this, but I can't shake the feeling that there's something profound hiding just beneath the surface of these strange dream images. Maybe I need to dive back into some of those more mystical parts of the Bible, see if I can unravel this cosmic love story my subconscious has conjured up.
One thing's for sure - I'll never look at a city skyline the same way again.
Until next time
