BraveDreamer Posted November 4, 2011 Report Posted November 4, 2011 Hi! I just joined the Network and wanted to introduce myself.I have TONS of questions about your Church, and I thought the best way to find out is to ask. I have several good friends that are LDS and I respect them a lot. Glad to be here. I'm sure I'll learn a lot. Thanks for letting me be part of your group! Quote

BraveDreamer Posted November 4, 2011 Author Report Posted November 4, 2011 (edited) With the risk of being made fun of, I'd like to tell you about my dream. It was SO REAL and gave me such peace. OK, here goes. I was standing in front of God. He was looking at me and I was looking at Him. He cocked his head, and then we both started laughing so hard . It was that can't catch your breath laugh. But, here I was, laughing with GOD! Here's what it FELT like. A flood of relief. Pure JOY. Happiness. And, after all the laughter, I GOT that it was this loving embrace of acceptance that I felt from him. This beautiful, non judgemental acceptance and love. My first thought was that GOD was the only one who didnt judge me, but just shook his head and totally accepted me. Loved me. So, there it is. Thats my dream. It gives me peace and joy when I remember it. It does not fit into anything I have been taught about God. I think there is supposed to be some striking and punishing and what not. There is JUDGEMENT. So, awake, I dont know what to think of this. I do know what to "feel" about this. Edited November 4, 2011 by BraveDreamer Quote

Skip the analysis.BTW, I've never actually met any members of the Church of Scientology. Well, I'm sure I have, but I didn't know it at the time. I look forward to reading your posts, and I hope you feel welcome at this site. Quote
