Something was wrong. I could feel its weight in my heart like a stone.

As much as I feared, I knew. He had come and I was left behind, alone.

 

Terror gripped me as I cried out too late to the God I had neglected.

Because I believed I had time, his plan of salvation I rejected.

 

I hung my head in despair. If only I had listened at the start.

It wasn’t so hard to simply believe, open my life and heart.

 

Those words, “Give my life.” echoed in my head and I knelt with a mournful cry.

Eternal life in Christ was lost to me. I waited, now I ask my reason why?

 

I woke then with a sudden rush, hearing my anguished scream.

Finally, I accepted Jesus. Salvation came in form of dream.

 

I gave my life to Jesus that day and I never cease to remember the nightmare feel,

what would have happened that day so long ago, had the dream woken as real?
