I have been a big believer in synchronicity, intuition, and the prophetic living impulse…
I have been reading Mountains Beyond Mountains, reading emails from a friend regarding the poverty and recent atrocities in Sudan, and listening to the soundtrack Inception.
One of the cuts from the soundtrack to Inception is titled “Dream is Collapsing.”
If you have seen the movie, you know it is about the world of dream and reality, what is real vs. what is a dream. I live in this reality holding the dream of shalom – I realize ultimately one dream is collapsing while another is being created.
The dream that is collapsing is the one about our own comfort and safety and satisfaction in a world that God is connecting us to (whether it is our neighbor next door, 1o minutes away on the West Side or on State Street, or across the world in Haiti or Sudan)… the dream that is collapsing is the one that keeps us apathetic but seemingly falsely fulfilled and happy.
Synchronistically speaking, the underlying dream of shalom (“holistic well being” – those in power have the primary charge of seeing that it happens) may be trying to tie us all together.
Intuitively, like Jesus who warned us to know the seasons, I know change is ahead and nothing can keep it up from coming – it is a done deal. We are leaving one time epoch and entering another…
Prophetically, it is what I want to tell you, warn you about, fill you in on – and invite those who see it as well to walk in it and speak it.
We cannot live detached from the needs of our time – we cannot find fulfillment in a false wish dream of consumerism any longer.
