I had a very weird dream this morning.
I was in the office at home, talking on my cell phone, when I noticed something strange—a rope inside a box under my desk was moving. Slowly, but unmistakably, it was making its way out of the box. I tried to stay focused on my conversation, but I couldn’t ignore the rope.
Finally, I ran out of the room, calling for CT, who was spending the night on the couch, to come see it. I was so distracted that I completely checked out of my phone conversation, and the person on the other end eventually hung up on me. When I told CT, she was furious. She insisted that whoever I had been talking to was probably pouring out their heart, and I had just dissed them.
Still upset, CT got up to look, but she didn’t really see. She dismissed it, saying, “Ok, fine, it’s a rope,” and walked away. Apparently, she didn’t see what I saw.
Meanwhile, the rope had fully emerged from the box and was now moving down the hallway. I called out to Tom’s sister, who was in the bathroom getting ready for bed. She saw the rope but didn’t see it moving.
I don’t remember feeling afraid—just deeply intrigued and somewhat concerned.
Then, I decided to go to bed and forget about it. But as I lay there, I looked down the hallway and saw the rope suddenly increase in speed, rushing toward my bedroom. It came up the side of the bed. Instinctively, I grabbed it with my left hand, wondering if I had the strength to hold it back. It didn’t feel strong, and I held it easily—until it started wrapping around my arm with pieces of twine. That freaked me out enough to wake me up.
When I thought about the dream afterward, I realized that in the dream, I had been calling out to CT and Tom’s sister with deep emotion, but my words weren’t coming out clearly. I think I may have been trying to call out in real life while sleeping, which made my voice sound muffled.
I’m not entirely sure what this dream means, but it felt significant.
What does the rope signify?
What is coming after me?
Could it be the encroaching timeline of debt and the unresolved house situation?
I’m pretty sure this is spiritual. Things that make you go hmmm…
Note from Linda 2022:
I never got a full interpretation of this dream, except for the part where I grabbed the rope with my left hand. But as I read this again, I wonder…
Did CT and Tom’s sister represent the people around us who couldn’t see what God was doing in our lives? The ones who were frustrated with us—who thought we were completely off our rocker?
