I just woke up from a bad dream. I have such a pounding headache now. Carman kept needing to be rescued, including pulling him up on a moving train when he lost his footing. I wonder if it's because I'm a single parent that I have so many dreams of rescuing or looking out for others?
One time recently I was praying in my dream, and I knew God was around. He wasn't in this dream, when Carman was about to be crushed by a train. But two of my friends were there, who both jumped in to help me. Both of them are Atheists.
Recently a Christian friend of mine let me down, and one of these Atheist friends was very good to me. Maybe I trust that my Atheist friend would be there for me in dire straits, but not the Christ follower. At its best that is ironic, at its worst it is sad indeed.

Why does this seem odd? Everyone is made in God's image, all have the divine spark regardless of their beliefs or disbeliefs. Becoming a Christian is not a magical process by which we are transformed into a newer, better, different person with the saying of a prayer. It is a lifetime of struggle to beat the "old man" by the grace of God. It does not strike me as odd that there are many who do not call themselves Christian and are better able to manifest that divine image. This is why we are warned not to judge others and be at the task of seeing our own faults which gives humility and allows us to love indiscriminately.
