There is life underground
There is life underground
a dream, told by Joel Howard
The other night I asked the Lord for a dream. He gave me one at 3am the next morning. It was a dream and in the dream I was underneath a house. I was underground and I could see the dangling roots of the trees from down there. The roots were free - not surrounded by soil - and they were all dancing. They were happy roots. They were thick, happy roots. Thick and thicker than my arm or leg. They were strong, deep, protected and free. I stood in the room underground and looked around at the roots to my left. We were under a house which had a yard. There were a few sitting out in the yard. Under the ground I saw an electrical circuit board or panel. There were many breakers and one led to a light fixture under the ground where one could place a light bulb. I thought, why would we need a light under ground? I felt it - the fixture - and it was hot. It was live. I replaced the breaker realizing we may need to use that fixture. The panel controlled all the lights above and it was there underneath.
As I prayed the next day I thought about the meaning of the dream. Maybe it is the underground, the hidden church. It is hot - it is live - it is potent. We can tap into this under ground life - our roots hidden but dancing and strong - thicker than thick and unbreakable. There is life underground.
