dreams

I've noticed that whenever I dream, God is absent. I do things, but I don't pray, I don't consider things in His context. I do not go to Him as I might in real life. I feel the reason for this is that prayer and worship are not yet a fundamental part of my being. If they were, I would grasp on to them even in the confusion that are my dreams. And because they aren't, feelings of stress and terror that I rarely feel in life can reach me in my dreams. I'm always running slowly towards some thing, not recognizing that what I'm running after is unimportant. I'm always running from something, not recognizing that I have nothing of value that I can lose.

My Goal: Have God permeate my life so deeply that he is present even in my dreams.

And yes, I think this is my third post on dreams :O
