GIFTS OF DREAMING
Joseph and the Magi believed that they could receive genuine guidance in their dreams. Because they trusted, the life of the Infant Jesus was preserved.
In a recent book, She Who Dreams, Wanda Burch says, "I am alive because I dream." She relates how she was able to use the healing images of her dreams in the diagnosis, treatment, and healing of her breast cancer. Dreams are gifts. Are you grateful for those you receive?
