A snake bit me

I was again in my bed, haha, how ironic. The first time I woke up from my bed in my dreams, it was Jesus that was praying next to me. But now a snake awaited my awakening. I was in the bed ready to get up, and when I did my right foot went first and then I felt a sting. It was not a sting in where you hurt yourself, or a situation where you know what could have happened; this was different. I screamed and I grabbed my right foot, collpasing again on the bed. And when I turned to look the way where the sting had come from I was shocked. There stood a beautiful snake. It was not a normal snake, that's for sure. His colors were a dark blue with florucent green and light blue petals around his face. For me, it looked more like a dragon, but I knew well enough that it was some sort of unfamiliar snake. I started to cry because I thought my life was about to end. I could see the snake's two teeth marks punctured on my ankle. My first thought was that of venom running through my vains.

Almost immediatley someone came In the room. I cannot remember exactly who she was, but I do remember that she was looking for me. Appearantly, she had hear my cry. "What happened?! are you ok?" I showed her my ankle and explained to her what had happened, and then she shook her head and opened her mouth to say the words that would bring confusement in my mind, "Two bad things have already happened to you! This is the third...Michel, I think you are under attack by satan."

The dream ended there....I woke up and did not think much of it. I did find its meaning warning, like one of a future warning. I had that dream about a week ago, and in that week so many things have happened. There are not events that a person would be shocked to hear, but it is more of a spiritual war that has been going on within me. My first test was Tempation, then my second was like a battle with myslef, and my third was an overwheling feeling of stress. I keep on saying, " I have too many things on my plate right now...i am so stressed." What I did not notice was how much i had been ignoring God. Ever since that dream, I had not been praying, or reading my bible, or aknowleding him every day by myself. I was worhsipping, and i knew he was there but I was not covering myself everyday with his Word, sword...whatever you want to call it.

Yesterday evening I prayed and I poured out my heart to the Lord. I needed peace in my heart; I needed an assurance that only the Lord can give. I ended up sleeping very late talking to God. I thought I was done, tought I had the peace that I needed, but today in the morning when I went to church with Sophia I could not handle it. I started to cry even more, and this time it was not just because the presence of the Lord was there, but rather, it was a cry out of my soul. I needed to cry and let all the things that were hiding in my heart to go out. I was crying with sentiment and remorse. I needed to lay all my life down to him again, and I needed to call out His name. And so I whispered his name over and over again, letting tear after tear roll down my cheeks until finally I had peace in my heart. The preacher talked about the 'unsinkable ship'. He said just because Jesus seems like he does not see you, or talk to you, or seems as if he has his eyes closed, does not mean he has left you alone. That he is in the same boat you are in. That he allows tempations, and tests for us to get a wake up call in order to get back on our knees....and I believe that is what I needed to hear this morning. It was a nice welcome back from God.

38Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, "Teacher, don't you care if we drown?"
39He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.
40He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?"
41They were terrified and asked each other, "Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!"
