Last ten years of my life: living hell. Very devout Catholic. Holy Thursday night at bedtime I begged the Lord to let me ‘SEE HIM’. Whether or not I’m worthy (and who is? certainly not I) - about 3:30AM on Good Friday I awoke from a “dream” experience unlike any I have ever had before in my lifetime (and I’ve had apparitions in dreams!)

I WAS Jesus. I KNEW I WAS Jesus. There was NO ego, there was NO “I”, there was NO sensation of power or majesty, there was just pure JOY because I knew all the people who came to me (and there were hundreds) were healed and sanctified by my presence. I reached across hands stretching out to me to touch the gnarled hands of a crippled woman and in that instant I knew she was healed. It was almost like an interior “joke” (not in the “funny” sense, in the WONDROUS sense). THEN I “woke up” and looked at the clock. And in my head, I “heard” “If you want to see Me, you have to be Me.”

WHAT was that??? Has anyone else ever had such an experience? I feel as though I was touched in a way that transcends all ability to convey the experience and I know I"m not insane, mentally or emotionally, but I don’t know what to make of this. OR…what to DO with this. ???
:confused:
 
What a great dream!

I’ve never had one like that, but at one point in the conversion process I had a dream about the scourging. In some parts of the dream I was witnessing it; in some parts I was receiving it, and in some parts I was administering it 😦

(For the record, I put no stock in my dreams; they are just the attempts of my subconscious to make sense of the random neural firings in my brain while I’m sleeping.)
 
Well, for those of us that are saved, we will all be sons of God.
 
Oh ellzeena! Although I never had a dream quite like that, your joy touched my heart. What to do with knowing pure joy? Well, I would say, hold onto that joy and live it, dear! Walk with Jesus and Follow Him. Live in the Love of Our Lord. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Blessings,

Just a couple of days ago I had a dream that there was a nun. I was seeing her from the outside but I couldn’t see what she looked like. I don’t know if it was me or not. She had a black habit on and she was sitting in church on a wooden pew. Then suddenly I could see inside her and Jesus was inside her. He opened His eyes inside her and she became Him. As she got up and started walking out, she was completely, Jesus on the inside even though she looked the same outside.
 
I disagree. St. Paul says I no longer live but Christ lives in me. It’s the same thing.
 
God sends people dreams at times. The bible clearly says that so I don’t see how you could ignore dreams that have a spiritual element. It’s ridiculous to me to think that God wouldn’t use our dreams since He can use everything in our lives to give us grace.
Of course we have to be discerning but I don’t see how that would be hard for a faithful Catholic who knows their faith.

I agree. And thanks for the blog spot. I was not “god”, I did not “exist”, it was Jesus who existed and “I” was aware of that. The most amazing aspect was the total lack of ego, the total lack of the sense that “I” was in any way anything at all except a vehicle for healing and sanctification which was the source of that immense joy I felt. “I” was joyful for THEM, those coming to me. It was brief and it abruptly intruded on a real “dream” (nonsense stuff) much as have a few other such visions or whatever they are that I’ve had. The feeling was amazing, nothing like anything I think possible to experience as myself here in this world.
 
I have had two experiences kind of like this but Jesus or Mary always appeared to me. I woke up both time with a strong desire to prayer the Rosary, one time a had a Rosary in my hand. Also I felt extreme peace and gladness.
I have talked to a priest about it and they said not to dwell on it because Satan sometimes wants us to feel prideful and like we were “CHOSEN” above every other human being.
I don’t know if any of this helps, but God Bless.

Every human being has the capacity for intimate communication with God, but most refuse it, of their own choice. My spiritual director never corrects me when I report these things but he once did say I had a “real apparition” and when that one occurred I was fully conscious, kneeling in the pew, having just received the Eucharist.

Oddly, I feel quite insignificant, quite unworthy and very dispensable, and a total failure. My apparition of Mammon at age five, and subsequent things by the hundreds, actually keep me from allowing these feelings to run my life. Instead of making me “proud” or “vain” or seeking out a special acknowledgment (last thing I want!), they keep me going, moving toward Him. They keep me alive right now. Thanks for all who posted.
