“Endurance. Yes child, you need more endurance.”
Lord, last week I blew it. What was supposed to be victory ended up in defeat. Overall I wanted to please You, but eventually I ended up pleasing my flesh.
Then I read about how we, as Christians, need more endurance. Later I feel asleep and dreamed of a horse, a beautiful brown, healthy horse running across the field in front of me.
“Oh, he’s beautiful!” I exclaimed as he ran by. Then I woke up. What a strange dream.
After getting up, I decided out of curiosity to google, “What do dreams about brown horses mean?”
Hmmmm, interesting. One site claimed, “Dreaming of a brown horse means you’re highly motivated and your ambition is high. Even though there are many obstacles, you’re ready to overcome them. Dreaming of a beautiful horse means a lot of success is expecting to come your way. So you don’t have to worry.”
That’s nice. I’ll take it.
Other sites stated:
“A horse in a dream symbolizes freedom, energy, strength, endurance, stamina, power, but also hard work.”
“Running horses symbolize freedom and release of repressed energy.”
“A dream about a beautiful horse indicates success and prosperity.”
“A brown horse symbolizes defiant ambition and driving forces. You are highly motivated and resistant to obstacles. You may be shedding problems and ‘dead weight’ as you work toward a goal.”
Oh Wow! Lord, I’ll take all of that. But what do You say?
For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise. Hebrews 10:36
. . . Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking into Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2
Lord, I believe. Help me to run this race before me with endurance onto the victory You already have planned for me. Thank you for not giving up on me. Amen
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:57
