I Can Fly
In my dreams I can fly. I have often had a dream that I can fly. Though my flight is very near the ground and not very often. I had that dream again last night. And it’s been a while since I had that dream.
I was in a building where there was a leader who was evil. In a certain room he could fly around at will. And all the people who feared him were greatly impressed that he could so such a thing. He was full of pride that he could put on such a display of his power.
After witnessing his “great” feat, the awareness of his folly was plain to me. I turned to one of those who were there watching. “When you next see him, tell him I can fly without the contraptions of this room”. I went out to the back door steps and two followed me. One of those who went with me was respectable and needed no convincing. He knew I could fly and simply walked along with me. The other was a lady who came to see me fly. My first attempt failed. I nearly fell on my face as I tried to leave the ground.
I spoke to the lady, “I can’t fly when I’m not right with God”. She agreed with that statement. And said that she was also a Christian. After a moment of reflection as I stood on the step, I tried again. To my great joy I left the ground. My feet were not bound by the earth. And though I only flew a few feet off the ground, there was that familiar feeling of freedom.
I know what this dream means and I think you do too. And I thank God that He gives such promises to men.
By His Grace.
