Recurring Dreams

    One of the ways that God speaks to us is through dreams, recurring dreams.  For the last two weeks, I have awakened to mentally reciting the 19th Psalm.  I am not sure why.  I am not sure about the message.  But there it is again and again.
    Psalm 19 begins with proclamation; i.e., the heavens are telling ... the firmament proclaims ... and they do it without words.  I have long been an advocate that our deeds must be accompanied by words.  Paul says to us, How will the world know if we do not tell it about Jesus.  But in Psalm 19, there is loud proclamation without words.  Is God asking me to rejoice in deeds and behaviors without verbal witness?
    The Psalm goes on to talk about God’s creative power; i.e., making a place for the sun.  In the ancient world, when polytheism was accepted by everyone including the Jews, the god of creation was the most powerful god in the council of the gods.  I believe that God (Yahweh in the Old Testament) is powerful, the most powerful force on earth.  By remembering that God is all powerful, is God asking me to trust in God’s power to provide for Epiphany and me what is needed for our future growth?
    The Psalm goes on to talk about the law, testimonies, precepts, commandments, fear, and ordinances of God and how they revive the soul.  I have always believed that God has expectations for the way I think, for what I say, and how I behave.  I also believe that our behaviors determine our feelings.   Are these verses God’s way of saying I have to change, in some way, the way that I am behaving?
    Finally, the Psalm concludes with a prayer request; i.e., keep your servant back from presumptuous (arrogance) sin.  I think all of God’s people have to continually remind themselves that it is not what they do but what God does through them that really counts.
    I am not sure why I continually dream about Psalm 19 but I do dream.  I am also wondering if you have the same experience; i.e., having the same recurring dream.  If so, at what point did/does the proclamation and revelation of God become  crystal clear for you?
