Doc13, Many times, the Lord will show us things in dreams. Sometimes things that will happen, or situations that are right now. The only one that can FULLY interperet your dream is the Holy Spirit. Ask Him, and He will reveal it to you.
But what I can offer is this: It is a familiar setting to you. The desire of your heart is in this familiar setting. Whether it is there right this minute, or will be in the future, dont know. Maybe it is your future wife will be a Christian woman. The fact that she makes a circle in the church may have signifigance. Will she be from your congregation? Who knows?
My gut feeling is God will be revealing your future wife to you, But PLEASE let Him work in His own time and in His own way! Dont try to rush it, or try to figure it out, or make connections that arent there. A lady I know was promised a husband 20 yrs ago. She is still waiting. But she knows that one is coming. For quite awhile, she would think it is one person, but he didnt fit all that had been prophesied about the future husband, so she tried to reason around it and make him fit. Turned out it was not him at all! Now, there is one that is fitting everything and he has been under her nose all this time! (just like was spoken) but she is taking her time with it and letting God reveal all to her.
God has a special someone for everybody. Give Him time to work. You may be ready, but maybe she needs time!
Keep dreaming, Doc13. God often speaks to us and deals with our spirit while we are sleeping!

HI. I never really mentioned this dream to anyone, but I think of it daily.

This dream happened about 2 years ago. It's so vivid that I can replay it all in my head (and usually do daily).

A little background first, I'm single and never been married. My goal in life is to be a husband. That's the one thing I've always wanted, a wife.

So in my dream, I was in church sitting in a pew. I was on the back left. When the service ended, I got up and on the right side of the isle, in the pews, this young lady (maybe in her 20's) stood up.

She was in the front right where I was in the back left.

She turned around and looked at me. I had a feeling like I've never experienced before. I can't describe it. It was incredibly beautiful. It felt like she touched my soul. I was frozen and couldn't say or do anything. I was overwhelmed by this feeling.

It's hard to explain the emotion and effect on my soul because I've never experienced anything like it, but it was wonderful. It was pure. Physically, it felt like I was trying to inhale and exhale at the same time.

She just looked at me and smiled. I remember thinking this is the most beautiful person I've ever seen. I also thought in my mind that this is the person I need to marry and that I wanted her to be my wife.

I was frozen and she walked in front of the podium, past the pews, up the left isle, around the back, then down the right isle, and back to where she started.

All the time I was frozen and she was just looking at me and smiling. I was seeing her dance gracefully while she walked but I think that was in my mind and didn't happen.

I woke up when she got back to her seat. I just stayed in bed and enjoyed the feeling. As soon as I woke up, I could not remember what she looked like. I know the feelings I felt and how I reacted, but I have no idea what she looked like.

Was she someone that goes to my church? Was she a stranger? Who knows, but I can't stop thinking of this dream and the feeling.


These past two years, strangely, my mom has told me multiple times that early in the morning when she passes by my room, she sees me at times giggling and laughing in my sleep. She says I look so happy in my sleep. I don't remember any of the things I've dreamed of when she says I was giggling or laughing that night in my sleep.

Also, there have been multiple times these last two years where I've woken up and I've felt incredibly happy. I don't know why and I can't remember if I dreamed that day, but I wake up and can't stop smiling. I feel incredible and I know something happened in my dream but I don't remember the dream.


So, anyone have any ideas what this means? I wish I could remember what that young lady looked like.

Everyday I want to feel what I felt in that dream. At times I feel sad that I can not or have not felt that feeling from that dream.

What you described sounds like some dreams I've had that I'm sure were time spent with Jesus. It's like a real dream, man and woman. But how does a guy spend dreamtime with Jesus? hmmm..something to consider that it may be loving time with the Lord. Does that sound strange?

If it is of God - it would happen.

If it is of your flesh - you would wait forever and it just may not happen.

Herein lies wisdom - to identify those dreams that are of God and those that from the flesh. If not, you may wait for many, many years for the fulfilment of a dream that God never gave to you. Seek the Lord.

Doc-

I hate to burst your bubble, but here are my thoughts:

The book of Revelations talks about Jesus coming back for his bride. The fact that this woman walks around the entire church symbolizes to me that she represents the church. She is God’s true church, which is not seen in the physical. In the spirit, she is beautiful beyond description. She is described in more detail in Revelations 12. The Lord is excited about his bride and the true fellowship that is to come in the near future. He has been waiting a long time for this. You can’t remember her face because God’s true church consisting of thousands of Christians you don’t know.

Jesus coming back for his bride.

What you described sounds like some dreams I've had that I'm sure were time spent with Jesus.

I wondered about that too.

Make sure you are not putting your life hope in a dream. God is your focus, and wisdom will bring you a future within His best plan for you. The dream is just a communication tool.

And the dream could possibly be your brain fulfilling its desires. Considering that hope deferred makes the heart sick, try to keep the innocent desire from becoming an obsession that saps your energy and strength.

But PLEASE let Him work in His own time and in His own way!

I have found that when I need to wait, those are the times God encourages me with visions -- not when something is at hand. The vision helps you keep hope and a focus.

The fact that she makes a circle in the church may have signifigance.

You might have needed this warning before marrying an MDiv student, lol! (From pew, to pulpit, to serving communion, to serving the Body... keeping the humilty of joint fellowship until the end. ) Lol... now I will drive you nuts.
