Forests and Fawns
I decided to take some time tonight to quiet myself and let my mind go where it wanted. Thankfully, it doesn't take me long to quiet my thoughts, so while laying in an epson salt bath, this is the vision I had.
I saw a stream flowing in a forest and I knew that the stream represented the fluidity of time. The forest and trees were surrounding this stream on each side, however, in front of me was a young Fawn. I felt inclined to follow the Fawn and it led me past a few trees to a door. Doors aren't a new concept for me, and I knew instinctively this door HAD to be opened. Slowly, I took the key (which of course was now in my hand) and unlocked the door and opened it. As soon as I stepped through the door I was transported to a clearing. I knew I was still in a forest, but in front of me was lush grass and a feeling of abundance. I just knew this was a place without lack and where all needs were met. In the grass was a Doe pregnant with another Fawn. I knew the Doe was the same Fawn that had led me through the door - just grown up. There was just such a peace about me throughout the entire experience.
We live in some turbulent times, but I knew this vision was a reminder for me of the peace I have even in the midst of the storms. God has never forsaken me, and He's not about to start now. I also know that even though sometimes we feel like we are surrounded by things (symbolized by the trees), there's always a door leading to better times and greater things.
Because I am me, I went to google and did a search on what a Fawn symbolized because I knew there was a reason it was a Fawn. Fawns are gentle creatures and they remind us to have grace even in the toughest of circumstances. They also remind us trust and follow our intuition. For me, this just reminded me further to trust in what I know, follow where God leads me, and even in the midst of adversity, things are going to be alright. On the other side of the door is a land flowing with milk and honey - all the things I need in order to survive and thrive. All I have to do is trust the One who holds me in the palm of His hand.
I am reminded I may not know the future, but I know the One who does, and it's all going to be ok.
