What happens when we dream: In the Bible

When we dream, our brains are active in a similar way to when we are awake. However, there are some key differences. For example, the part of the brain responsible for logic and reasoning is less active during dreams, which is why dreams often seem so illogical and bizarre.  Also, our muscles are paralyzed to keep us from acting out our dreams.

Dreams can be about anything, and they can be very vivid or very abstract. They can be happy, sad, scary, or anything in between. Some people dream every night, while others only dream occasionally.  I think that I dream every night but only remember a small portion of the dreams I dream; maybe 20% the rest are forgotten when I wake up.

The bible says that God seals instructions to his children in our dreams[Job 33:14-17].  So God uses dreams as a way to speak to his children as he did with Joseph, Samuel, and Solomon in the bible.  God made promises to each of these men in their dreams and fulfilled each promise.  The bible also says that God holds the interpretation of every dream, so if we seek God we can know each dream’s interpretation. 

All dreams are important; even nightmares can hold an important warning to us to influence us to take a different path or avoid certain people.  Some people find that journaling helps make sense of their dreams because one dream by itself can be confusing, however several dreams lumped together can be enlightening…
I will give a warning, don't tell everyone/(just anybody) your dreams because just as Joseph was hated because of his dreams, people will hate you too if they find out what God has planned for you(when I was about 6 years old I had an aunt that used to ask me about my dreams and she put roots on me to try and keep them from coming true, because she was jealous that it wasn't her son or grandchildren that God wanted to use)...
