	~~I had a dream last night of which I remember many segments. It took place in Texas. One of the segments strengthened my faith. I share that segment below:~~

	There was a movie or a play we attended. It had obscenities, and the entire audience walked out en masse, which heartened me to see. Then the thought occured to me we might ask for a refund. I was pricked in my heart and ashamed, because I knew our Lord had commanded not to seek riches. But I waved my wallet and went to the box office window. I must have received the refund, though that was not in the dream, because the next thing I knew I was flying over all the people.

	But in the next scene I had a hard time flying. It seems I was weighed down by something. I didn't realize it at the time, but later in the dream I found out what it was (and in the telling to you I am seeing the connection).

	In the next scene I was off to the west of the crowd, and I had one of my boots filled with gold coins. I was not able to fly at all. Some young ruffians approached, presumably to steal the coins. I lay down on the ground and cried aloud, "O, Lord God, bless these boys that they may .... " and I don't remember the rest of the prayer. It was either a plea that they remember their mothers or have mercy on an old man, or remember their Holy Father. In any case, the boys stopped molesting me. It later occurred to me I should have either let them dig in my boot for "whatever you need" or offer them from my boot.

	A lady saw what had happened and apparently saw something miraculous in it. She started to call to the people to jubilate about the miracle, when I begged her to consider praying first before spreading the word abroad.

	She commenced (to my amazement) to have a Texas Baptist style prayer service with the people right there (and I considered how when the fervor of worship comes over the people they miss the mark so lovingly and sweetly), complete with gospel singing in which I joined.

	~~1. Little children don't seem to care what I know; they only care about how they feel around me. (2006-05-25)~~

	~~2. Grant that I may speak in ever softer words, with the tongue of angels, to minister comfort to the weary and troubled around me and glorify thee in power. (2006-05-25)~~

	~~3. Who has ever coveted a cloud, a rainbow, or a blue sky? (2006-05-26)~~

	4. You are never truly free until you let go. You can tell yourself lies about freedom. You can say, "I will be free when I am rich," "I will be free when I leave my parents or wife," or "I will be free when I die." But the world and the eternites are full of wealthy, single, and disembodied captives. In this world and in eternity, you will only be free the moment you let go of the thing that holds you captive. (2006-06-02)

	5. Bruce R. ~McConkie said the Second Coming of the Lord is within the lifetime of every faithful Saint. And perhaps, say I, it is just beyond the lifetime of every living soul. I pray it is not that last day that forces me to reliquish claim on all things worldly. I pray I attain the Kingdom of God by my own free will while the day lasts. (2006-08-07)

	On the morning of Sunday 16 January 2005, before I awoke, I dreamed that I was in a family setting teaching a lesson as in a Family Home Evening. While I shared my lesson, the children started singing, and I thought that soon angels joined with them in singing of the love of the Father in Heaven. When I awoke I tried to write down the song they were singing. I translate it something like this:


	~~We love our Father, he loves us forever.~~
	~~No sadness or danger will make us afraid.~~
	~~Alelluia the children were singing~~
	~~With angels around them arrayed.~~

	Or

	~~We have a father who loves us forever.~~
	~~No sadness or danger will make us afraid.~~
	~~Aleluia, the the little children were singing~~
	~~With angels around them arrayed.~~

	~~A Song~~

	~~One night I lay asleep; I dreamed a dream most heavenly.~~
	~~Around me my children gathered, glowing with love.~~
	~~And as I taught them, in answer came a melody,~~
	~~And soon they were joined by the angels above.~~

	~~A-a alleluia. A-a alleluia. The little children were singing with love.~~
	~~A-a alleluia. A-a alleluia. A song to their Father above.~~

	~~We have a Father who loves us forever.~~
	~~No sadness or danger will make us afraid.~~
	~~For we are his children; we love Him forever,~~
	~~in warm light He holds us; our strong house He made.~~

	~~Alleluia. The little children were singing. Raising a song to their Father above.~~
	~~Alleluia. Angelic answers were ringing. A witness of heavenly love.~~

	Howard Storm's experience is a great prototype of death experiences as related to LDS belief. It is heavily reminiscent of Alma II's experience and of Lehi's dream. Storm was invited by spirits into a dark and dreary waste where he wandered for many hours (or weeks) until he came to an abyss where he was racked and tormented until his mind caught hold on the thought of a Savior and called out for Jesus to have mercy on him. Then what light did he behold, and he was filled with joy as exquisite as was his pain.

	On June 1, 1985, 38 year old Howard Storm, an atheist, found himself in the spirit overlooking his body in a hospital room. Anger and frustration overcame him. "This is crazy! I can’t be standing here looking down at myself. That’s not possible," he told himself.
