A Little Boy's Vivd Dream

        I had this story that happened at work and I just had to tell it to someone. It might be short because I have to hurry but I knew if I didn't write it down I would forget it later. A lot has been going on that I need to write down on here. Hopefully, I will get caught up when I get snowed in. This talk with this little boy started the night before and I just wanted to see what kind of morning he had after he woke up for the morning.
         This little boy, as I was putting him to sleep, was telling me that he was sacred and kept seeing a monster when he was closing his eyes so he couldn't go to sleep. That monster seemed to be Harry Potter with a knife. Now, I have never watched those movies because I know they would scare me too. I don't know if this is true or not. He also said that he was made to watch them because someone else watched them. I just kept reminding him that he was safe and I will stay by his bedside until he fell asleep and I did.
           The next day is what really got me though. I asked him how his night went after all of that and he said the greatest thing ever, he said, " I'm happy now because I saw angels and God." I asked him some few more questions about what happened before that. He said things like "I was in hell and saw the devil because I was mad at someone but then I saw the angels and God and now I am happy." I'm not for sure who the someone was but it is just amazing how a little child can put two and two together.
When you think about the devil, you are usually mad or sinning or both really. When you see angels and God, you are happy.
            It's comments like these and dreams that makes me wonder do children really see more then we give them credit for. Does God really give them dreams like that where only they can see Him? It was scary for me but at the same time interesting because I wonder did he really see this and put the feelings together or is it something he has just heard or saw. Either way it is in his mind and he is dreaming it, which is not good when it is about the devil but I think it is neat that God and angels came over to keep him safe espically after I told him he would be safe.  Just another one of those God moment.
            It is strange too because during the day this child can get really mean and bossy like he is hiding something or something is bothering him but he doesn't know how to explain it yet we are not giving him the chance to in his own words. He loves playing naijas, bad vs. good, and other games like that outside and sometimes now I wonder if that is not a way to get his feelings out.
