Thread: This one will stay with me forever...

I guess I don't really believe that people can interpret my dreams without at least knowing me. Still, I will enjoy hearing what people have to say about the following dream. It occurred a few months ago and has made it into my top 3 most memorable. It physically effected me more then any other dream. I awoke terrified, trembling and crying. It's the single only time this has ever happened. It was no where near lucid. Not at all.

Oh, maybe I should give personal background. I'm female, 27 (almost) I have very little formal religious education but still view myself as a Christian and even though I don't go to church still feel like a pretty spiritual person.

The dream:

I was alone in my room. I had just woken in the middle of the night. The room was small, square and black and I was alone. I hear my little brother screaming for help. He is on the other side of my bedroom wall. He is hurting and I am scarred to death. God (Yes, Big G himself) says to me that this is a test of my faith. I am not to get off my bed no matter what happens, no matter how bad.

I continue to hear my brother screaming and I want so badly to go to help him. I'm on my knees on the bed with the blankets bunched up around me. Satin speaks to me. He is coming from under my bed. I can't see him and I don't remember what he sounds like but I know he is tempting me to go and save my brother. I want to go. I keep repeating something to myself. I don't know what it is but it's something along the lines of, "This is a test from God, just stay on the bed" I think I was begging God for help too. I was crying and gripping the sheets on the bed staring wide eyed toward the wall where my brothers voice was coming from. It was horrible.

I didn't get off the bed.

When I awoke I was in a state of terror I had never before felt but underneath I felt I had passed my test. I was so thankful.

Well that's it. That's my starriest dream ever. Love to hear your thoughts.
