I wake to nothing. 

 And how glad I am to receive. 

A quandary had blocked my way and to His face I knelt.

O Lord of Life I struggle with a knowledge.

And need to know if it has come from You.

“Take care to weigh the words you think you hear.”

You spoke a while ago.

And now I laid a fleece in grass and wait to see its state.

I said that if this word be Yours that You would grant me dreams.

And not the dreams of countless thought which linger full of doubt.

The dream I sought was like those which pestered me for years.

I sought the dream from You which would mark my soul.

And I knew that You were able to provide.

I woke today and searched my mind.

Had such a dream been given?

But all I found were vague mists of thought.

Nothing remained to define.

These are not the things of my God.

And this is not what I asked to appear.

I received nothing!

And isn’t this the very answer I did not expect.

I give you Glory and Thanks for You alone are worthy!

Praise belongs to the Lord my God.

And I will render it forever!

Remember now and seal it up.

This did not come from God.

There are only two places it could have come from, aren’t there?

And neither is eternal.

Consider with great sobriety what you did not receive.

Remember, Remember, Remember!

I write this post to place a rock,

Along the path of life.

I will not stumble on this again.

For it does not come from God!

By His Grace.
