Another dream... driving again

I woke up about an hour before my alarm this morning, so I popped something into my stereo, rolled over and went back to sleep, whence I very promptly had yet another disturbing dream.

This time, I dreamt I was driving in Southern Alberta, and stopped to get food at a Subway. A storm came up quickly, and I was stranded with a whole bunch of people at the Subway. We stood by the glass windows, watching the sky, and all of these tornadoes are trying to form, but not quite forming. Over and over again they would start, and then dissipate.

Finally, everyone in the restaurant leaves as a group. We’re driving, and then suddenly hiking quite desperately through this brush up a hill.

Anyway, the main image was again of driving as unsafe, of driving in the midst of this storm.

Apparently driving is the vulnerable area in my life that the enemy is choosing to attack these days.

Makes it hard for someone who has never liked driving in the first place to keep fighting off the fear and getting behind the wheel.

Clinging still, to God my shield. To the protection he provides.
