Dreams Realized
I had a dream about my brother last night. I wanted to write it down because I know I’ll forget about it. I dreamt that I was walking to a friends house to help him with something. As I was walking down the street someone was walking towards me. As he got closer I thought… that looks like my brother Scott. And then as he got closer his eyes opened wide and he yelled Rob! It was my brother! We hugged each other and both cried and I said… how? how?
My brother then said Rob… I didn’t have any choice I had to fake my death. Which raises a lot of questions but I didn’t care… I just didn’t care, I was so glad to see him.
I don’t know for sure if we will recognize loved ones in Heaven. I mean there is that thing about the Rich man recognizing father Abraham and the Poor man. And there is that thing about the twelve Apostles surrounding the throne in Heaven. So I tend to think that we will recognize people and that is a very comforting thing to me and perhaps an extra motivation to strive to be there.
What a great day that will be when we enter the gates of Heaven and are reunited with people whom we have loved the most in the world and to get to meet the storied Apostles. And also, hopefully a dream come true when I see my brother again.
