Two mothers, similar dream

Last night (2013/10/03) I dreamt that my husband and son were in the parking lot at my son's creche. Without my husband noticing, our son started walking behind a car which was reversing (this was a white vehicle). That vehicle then knocked our son over. Our son was "fine" since he was not badly hurt but had a huge bruise in his face / on his head. In my dream I was standing across the street and witnessed all of this without being able to warn my husband. That was the end of my dream.

When I arrived at work this morning, a colleague told me about the dream she had early this morning. She dreamt that her son's creche phoned her to inform her that there had been an accident at his school and that he was hurt.

I am not sure what to make of this but I trust the Lord to keep both these children safe and will not surrender to fear. I just wanted to share this with you.

Dream about Fire

Dream on the night of 1 October 2013
I was a part of a few people that would go on a boat trip on the ocean. During the orientation session, a very small number of people opted to take the life jackets available (they were standing below and apart from the rest). When the session was almost finished, I raised my hand and indicated that I would also like a life jacket. Those who did not want life jackets were either amazed that I thought that I needed one or mocked me about it. I was not ashamed of the fact that I needed once, since I cannot really swim and voiced this to the group. I then went to the small group of life jacket wearers (who included men, woman and children) and at first it seems as though there were none left, when I spotted a single, red one, which I then put on. Some life jackets were yellow and others were red. When asked, I was told that our excursion on the water should take approx 30 minutes.

On our way to the ocean, we traveled together as a group (on foot) on a long, winding dirt road with a hill in front, to our right hand side. Ahead of us (approx 200 m - 500 m) was a group of people (I think they were all young men). Then 2 young men came racing recklessly from behind and passed our group (on on each side) while we were on a bridge in the road. They were travelling on a weird type of motorcycle / horse cart. They were driving so badly that I actually cried out to the Lord to keep us safe. When these 2 reached their group (ahead of us), one collided into another member of the group and his “vehicle” left the road and as it dropped to the left into the valley, towards the dry forest below, it caught alight. Within a split second the whole group in front of us were engulfed in flames. I could actually see horses (4 or 5 brown ones) and the people burning. Our group immediately turned round to flee the fire and already parts in front of us were burning. Two, identical, white oxen standing between us and the group of people on fire did not move and were also swallowed up by the flames.


I then fled to my father’s house and sat in my old room. A young man then entered the room and opened a window, which I then closed. At that stage EVERYTHING outside was ablaze (even the sky was on fire). The young man told me that he was in the first group of young men but managed to escape and he now wants to return to try and save some of the others. I then told him that it is impossible and he left. As I sat in the room, at the window, only the glass stood between me and the fire but I knew that I was 100% safe. I actually felt strangely detached from and unemotional towards the fact that the entire world (apart from that house) seemed to be on fire. I was the only one in the room and was not aware that there was anyone else in the house (although I did not visit any of the other rooms).

Once inside the house, I realized that the heat of the flames (when I was outside) actually scorched my hair and turned it a yellow/white color.
