Hello there. How are you? Last night I had a dream and I don’t remember a lot of it but the parts I do remember are worth sharing. The dream was about finding a church to belong to and being an outsider. Then, at the end being approached by Pope Leo with a brown circular bread with a cross in it – communion. May be this dream was my subconscious coming to terms with my recent baptism – making my commitment to the Christian church after being raised Roman Catholic. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a spiritual dream like this!

Luke 3:16New International Version
16 John answered them all, “I baptize you with[a]water. But one who is more powerful than I will come, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with[b] the Holy Spirit and fire
Hello to you. I hope you are well in spite of everything going on in the news these days! I had a really neat dream last night of Princess Diana. I was taking pictures of her and they were never seen before images of her. She looked so beautiful! One of the outfits she was wearing as she stepped out of a car was a lavender purple outfit. Her eyes were so incredibly blue as she looked at me and my old school camera. The dream went from that to people who were trying to look like her but weren’t even close to being as beautiful as she was. I have always had a soft spot for her! I watched her get married and watched her funeral. I really mourned her passing for a long time. I even signed a digital book for William and Harry sending them my condolences. I have dreamt of her a couple times since her death. She was a kindred soul! The world needs more people like her right now.
I found this picture searching the internet and it’s pretty close to what she was wearing in the dream
Princess Diana’s famous quotes reveal her humanitarian spirit, love for her sons, and unique approach to royal life, including phrases like “I lead from the heart, not the head,”“Family is the most important thing in the world,”“Hugs can do great amounts of good,” and her wish to be “a queen in people’s hearts”.
Here are some of her most notable quotes:
On Kindness and Humanity
“Anywhere I see suffering, that is where I want to be, doing what I can”.
“The biggest disease in this day and age is that of people feeling unloved”.
“Hugs can do great amounts of good – especially for children”.
“Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you”.
Hello to you. I hope your week is going well. Last night I dreamt a lot and I can only remember one of the dreams. It was about being with a young boy who reminded me of my ex husbands youngest brother named Cole. He had lost his father and his father wanted to comfort his son and decided to use me to do it. He came into my body which in past dreams used to scare me awake – but not this time. I reached out to the boy and hugged him and gave the fathers spirit peace. I could hear the sound I have heard before in what I call channeling dreams. I don’t know why I dreamt about that but it was interesting! It’s been awhile since I’ve had a dream about spirits.
John 14:16-17New International Version
16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him,because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be[a] in you.
Hello to you. I hope this finds you well. I stayed up until the wee hours of this morning and caught most of the funeral service of Pope Francis. I have mixed emotions – sad yet happy for him to be free of his failing body. I can remember how excited I was when he was first appointed- the name he chose being that of my favorite saint – Saint Francis of Assisi. The job of Pope really takes its toll and it’s sad how his body failed him in the end. They would fix one thing and then something else would happen! I hope the next Pope will have good health.
Last night without realizing who this was from I started reading – this was from my Grandpa Becker. This was his church. My Grandpa walking my Mom down the aisle. He never recovered fully from her death.
Yesterday would have been my Grandpa Beckers 112th birthday. Last night as I was trying to calm my mind I was lead to grab the tiny New Testament I’ve had since graduating high school. I didn’t realize until I talked to my Auntie today that It was from Grandpa! It’s funny how our loved ones reach out to us. He was in my prayers and on my mind! I told my Auntie today about a vivid dream I had after asking God if my Grandpa was ok in the afterlife. I dreamt that the spirit of Grandpa was in me and we were dancing with Ken my husband at the time. We told my Grandma Becker that we would see her on the other side. We apologized to his wife Charlie as she was the one who found him. Then we tripped and Grandpa popped out of me. The next thing I knew I saw him a ways away about to enter a church and he yelled out “there is life after death if you believe in Jesus Christ!” I woke up so comforted after such a dream! He was in heaven for sure! I miss him very much but know he’s not far away. Each night I pray for him and all those who have left this material world. I ask them to pray for us too!
I read this out of tiny print – one of my favorite passages:
Matthew 5:1-12New International Version
Introduction to the Sermon on the Mount
5 Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, 2 and he began to teach them.
The Beatitudes
He said:
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. 5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. 6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. 7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. 8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Describe one positive change you have made in your life.
Hello to you. It’s Thursday already! The weeks fly by so fast. Last night I had a dream that startled me awake. I was in my bedroom and all the sudden the lights came on. I hadn’t flipped the switch. I saw Link on the bed and was scared that the lights came on without me turning them on. I looked towards the bedroom door and made a strange sound of fear at something I couldn’t see. Then an unseen hand grabbed my throat and pushed me to the bedroom floor. This force held me until I startled awake! I have dreams like this from time to time!
The most positive change I’ve made in my life thus far is choosing to become a Christian. I have been able to overcome a lot of things that some would find nearly impossible to overcome by choosing Christ. I am still learning and growing in my faith and Jesus has been patient with me. I have a lot of “body” issues I have been praying to be delivered from and I have been fighting impatience. I am constantly reminded that may be I may be exactly how I am because I am of the greatest use the way I am. If I was perfectly healthy would I lean into Jesus as much? When we are healthy and don’t have any troubles we tend not to lean – least wise that’s been the case with me! When I am doing well in body I am not always well in spirit. Being a believer in the power of Jesus helps me face my limitations as a human being.
Acknowledging Human Weakness:The Bible recognizes that humans have limitations in knowledge, understanding, and ability.
For example, 1 Corinthians 8:2 states, “If anyone supposes that he knows anything, he has not yet known as he ought to know”.
Psalm 119:96 says, “I have learned that everything has limits”.
Hello there. Just wanted to share a neat dream I had this past night. I dreamt I was massaging an elderly woman’s hands using an energy healing method called Quantum Touch. I could tell she was suffering from severe arthritis. It’s when I asked her where it hurt that I knew it was my Grandma Schmidt. She said “in the middle.” I recognized her voice and got a brief glimpse of her face. Then there was something about Pennie’s and two wooden boxes as remembrance of her and Grandpa. They were boxes like the ones we got all our pets ashes in after cremation. I was about to label the boxes when I woke up. Almost every night before bed I say good night to all my deceased loved ones to include pets. Sometimes that’s means dreams of them. One night I even had a dream of Prince!
I also wanted to mention something positive happened on Monday. A friend from church invited me to join some other ladies from church in making Easter baskets for residents at the assisted living home here in town. There was a great turnout and the baskets came out great! I got to write loving messages on the cards we included with each basket. The women at Grace are so welcoming and loving. I’m so glad I decided to participate. I am going to miss Grace House. The lease is almost up and I’m not sure where we will go next! God has a plan I’m sure.
Psalm 100New International Version
Psalm 100
A psalm. For giving grateful praise.
1 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. 2 Worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. 3 Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his[a]; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. 5 For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.
Hello to you. Hope this finds you well. Yesterday was a nice day. It was Links birthday and we had sunshine for the first day in what seems forever. We get what’s called inversion here in Idaho and it’s hard for the sun to burn through it. It’s back to gray now! Sigh!
The birthday boy!
This morning I had an answer to a prayer in a dream. I have been wanting to hear from my Dad in the dream world and I finally did. We were in a car going somewhere and I had my hand on his knee and apparently it felt hot to him. He said I had fallen asleep and I didn’t remember falling asleep – I must have felt safe. Being with Dad always felt safe. Then we were on some military base because I could see a map. I was talking about a part of it that never had coverage or something. We were talking about planning another visit that coincided with an anniversary and then I woke up. It felt so real! I didn’t want it to end! What’s funny is my prayer before bed was that someday I would see all those that have passed again. That we will all be together again and I specifically spoke of my Dad. We didn’t get to say goodbye to eachother. It’s been a little over a year since he’s passed. Having visits in dreams with lost loved ones is one of my favorite things about dreams!
In Genesis Joseph had prophetic dreams. The dream world is mentioned a lot in the Bible:
Genesis 37:5-11New International Version
5 Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him all the more. 6 He said to them, “Listen to this dream I had: 7 We were binding sheaves of grain out in the field when suddenly my sheaf rose and stood upright, while your sheaves gathered around mine and bowed down to it.”
8 His brothers said to him, “Do you intend to reign over us? Will you actually rule us?” And they hated him all the more because of his dream and what he had said.
9 Then he had another dream, and he told it to his brothers. “Listen,” he said, “I had another dream, and this time the sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”
10 When he told his father as well as his brothers, his father rebuked him and said, “What is this dream you had? Will your mother and I and your brothers actually come and bow down to the ground before you?” 11 His brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the matter in mind.
Last night I had a vivid dream like I haven’t had in a long time. I dreamt of falling asleep in a dark room and then all the sudden the light coming on. The light switch had been flipped on and no one but me was in the room. I went and told my mom Dianne about it in the dream. I startled awake from this dream as it was so vivid! I couldn’t really fall back asleep.
Genesis 40:8New International Version
8 “We both had dreams,” they answered, “but there is no one to interpret them.”
Then Joseph said to them, “Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell me your dreams.”
Just a couple days ago our family dog Spot, a rat terrier, passed away. She was about 14 years of age. Last night she came to me in a dream along with another dog I didn’t recognize. I was hoping she would visit me this way. She used to come to me in dreams while she was alive. Dreams make it possible for us to visit no matter what the living condition – dead or alive. I miss her and loved her so much. She was a great dog.

46 Then King Nebuchadnezzar fell prostratebefore Daniel and paid him honor and ordered that an offering and incense be presented to him. 47 The king said to Daniel, “Surely your God is the God of gods and the Lord of kings and a revealer of mysteries, for you were able to reveal this mystery.”
This morning I had a dream with my Aunt and my Dad in it. It’s the first dream I’ve had with my Dad since his passing. I was so happy to see him. From what I’ve learned from watching mediums like Matt Fraser, our loved ones reach us through dreams. I don’t remember specifically what the dream was about as it happened just for a few seconds before my alarm went off that I forgot I set. I hope there will be more dreams like that in the future. Love seeing my Dad healthy and strong!
Acts 2:17New International Version
17 “‘In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.
