Lately I have been having visions.
Not real, out of body, black out, ones, but imaginative journeys. Maybe "day dream" is a better term for it. The other day, I was painting this big garage. After a long time of this, I stood up, turned around, and looked behind me. I was looking across several backyards and driveways, and two yards down, there was this clearing in someones yard, a perfect square, with nothing but leaves blowing around in it. I imagined Jesus standing there, staring at me with great concern. His hair was kind of long and scraggley, being blown in the wind a bit, and he was staring at me.
There was another one, while I was at church. Our pastor was sharing a sermon, we all sitting in a circle, and I looked out one of the windows. A good ways off was a large building with a sort of castle looking roof. It was all brick, and square shaped. I imagined Jesus walking back and forth across it, and then I imagined I was for a split second, up there with him, all bundled up, because it was cold, marching back and forth with him, smiling big and wide.
It's kind of weird, I know, to imagine Jesus moments like this, but in some way, I think it is good for me. I think engaging Jesus imaginatively can part of how you relate to him. And its all about relating right?

Its ALL about relating, isent it? I have been thinking about how Jesus should be real in our lives. Like really real though, and unique as well. For me this has been more earthly things have reminded me of Jesus, like beautiful music, or a light crisp rain, or other things that just make me think how awesome God is. But its reality, its not "CCM" or my "Purpose Driven Journal" I mean this is MY life, and Jesus is integrated in it, and should be more and more in a more real level.
anyways...

Man... that's real, I need to start daydreaming about Jesus. Maybe I should really see Him too! Seeing God is cool! We should start a catchy phrase for this new phenomenon, like ddaj(daydream about Jesus), "man I was ddajjin' the other day, it was soooooo deep!"
For real tho, like it really makes the whole thing real if you stop and imagine Jesus being right there. Anythin stupid that you may be doing you won't be doing while He's there. It makes the meaningless monotony of life meaningful.
