Description
This man was working for evil. He was a general of sorts, for an army of demons. He was full of hatred and would feel empowered by going out and gaining territory for the kingdom of darkness. He had blond wavy hair, deep blue eyes, and wore dark clothing. It would seem that the kingdoms of God and the kingdoms of darkness were literal kingdoms with armies and knights. There were battlefields and horsemen, archers and swordsmen.This young man was raised in a high position serving the evil one. He was very proud of his job, too. But one thing remained- a slight fear, and a feeling of hollowness. Deep down he had compassion, but had learned, over years of serving demons, to numb his compassion down.
Suddenly, one day that changed. His heart began to warm up to the idea of Christ. He began to see that he was missing something within his life of darkness-Love. He didn't feel important anymore, and began to feel afraid. He was afraid of his demonic army turning against him if they had found out he was considering changing sides and going over to the Kingdom of God.
The evil one, got word about his most praised servant's heart. Immediately, he got angry with jealousy and evil, and commanded that his servant be killed. Knowing this, the servant began to flee. He was completely overcome by fear. He was stuck, it seemed. If he kept on serving the enemy, it would not lead to love or belonging. But if he turned to God, the enemy would surely overtake him and kill him for his betrayal.
He was stripped of his fancy clothes, His position, And became hated within the kingdom of darkness. However, no demon would kill him because his heart was only half way turned towards God. Regardless, This young man went into hiding.
I appeared. He was hiding, behind a building out in a town of dusty roads and abandoned houses. The buildings had a slightly Italian feel to them, and the walls of the buildings looked kind of primitive, and made out of clay. He sat on a stone bench. He held his head in his hands, rocking back and forth with nervousness. He could feel that the enemy was near, and this time, he was sure they were going to kill him.
I approached him, and he lifted his head up towards me. He said, "What am I going to do?! I don't want to serve the Devil anymore...but...God...can he really forgive me for serving his enemy?! I can't be in the kingdom of God...I am a terrible man not worthy of such a service...But I'm going to die now...so I guess it doesn't matter."
I kneeled down to him. I began to talk to him boldly about the kingdom of God. About God's forgiveness for even the worst of sinners. I said, "Just repent. God will forgive you! He always forgives anyone who confesses and asks for it! He loves you! He would love nothing more than for you to come serve him!" But his fear kept him anxious. Together we both could see the enemy and hordes of demons on horseback riding towards us in the distance.
"I'm too afraid...The devil is going to hurt me...I can't go to God...even if he did forgive me, it will be too late! The devil is powerful! He's going to kill me I just know it!"
The sounds of the demons felt like they got closer, but yet they were kind of far away. I got closer to him, and I said, "No he won't! Trust in the power of God. He is stronger than he who is in the world! His kingdom is infinitely more powerful than anything the devil could try. I know you want to accept Jesus's forgiveness. We should do it now before they get any closer. Would you like to ask God to forgive you, and for him to come into your life?"
Finally, the blond looked me in the eyes and he said, "Yes." I asked him for his hands. He moved his hands out towards mine, and I saw that they were bright red with blood. The blood dripped everywhere. Unashamed, I grabbed them. This blood was not from any visible wound, it was just on his hands. I kept thinking in my mind, "Christ's blood." As I held his hands, the blood got all over my hands, together our hands were bloody and stained with this blood.
I told him to repeat after me,
"Dear Jesus...Please forgive me of my sins. I have made mistakes and I know you can cleanse me. I ask you now, to come into my life. Take away all of my sin...I want you to be my savior, and I want to enter into your kingdom. Jesus, I accept your love and I ask for your Holy Spirit to come into my heart and make me alive on the inside. In your holy name we pray, Amen."
The noise of the demons stopped, and it seemed like the area around us got brighter. He lifted his head up to me, so vividly...His skin almost shined in the light. His eyes were a sparkling, bright blue color. We continued holding hands, but the thing that changed was his face. The corners of his mouth slowly curved upward to form a very broad smile. His eyes and his smile left a deep impression on me as we seemed to fade away, and I awoke from my dream.

I really did have this dream a few months ago. The dialog is mostly the same, except that some minor details may have been added or subtracted, due to my crummy memory XD hah.
But in all seriousness though, the last two days I suddenly remembered this dream. I don't know why but it kept coming back up and this excitement in my heart began to arise. I had to draw him. I just had to.
No, the dream was not in anime form....He was a realistic person and I was myself. I was seeing things as a spectator at first, kind of an omniscient view of the dream, and then I was seeing it through my own eyes. I could see my hands reach out for his, and I could feel the blood drip onto me. The only thing was I was very authoritative. I was speaking from the Spirit...I was showing him God's love.
It felt so real....And his smile...my gosh, that smile....this drawing I did of him hardly gives the dream any justice. I wish that I could accurately depict my dreams in a realistic fashion, but for now, this will have to do.
I don't know if this dream is about a realistic person or not. But it was highly symbolic and worth remembering. If any of you reading this or looking at the drawing feel like it resonates with you, please! Take that to heart!!!! God can heal, and he can bring you into his arms. Anything that you feel is unforgivable that you have done can be forgiven. God has so much grace and mercy and love ready to pour out all over your heart!!!!! I bless you with that in the name of Christ! Reach out and grab it, it's yours!!
I have a lot of dreams like this. I wonder if I should continue to post them and write them out. I think they are visions of things to come in my life, and things that may have happened or are happening. I feel like, God is going to use me to lead people to him someday and even now. And these are foretastes of excellent and meaningful experiences!
God Bless you!

I've been told the only sin that is unforgivable is believing your sins are unforgivable. 8|

Thanks for posting this! Your dream reminds me of a situation that my friend and I are working on in our Christian manga. More people need to realize that God IS there for all of us.
