The Disappointment of Unfulfilled Desires

The Disappointment of Unfulfilled Desires
I was at the church I work at and I was on a break when I see a friend from my Bible study group. I knew that he was there with his church, which included a guy whom I have romantic feelings towards. Although I didn't see the man I have romantic feelings for, I knew he was there for an event that was happening. It was a big event with a lot of people from other churches attending. The sanctuary was huge, almost like an arena, even though the church I work at isn't as big. Suddenly I was at the event and I was sitting by myself in the back at the very top of the balcony since I didn't know anyone else who was attending besides the two guys from my Bible study group. I could see one of the guys from where I was sitting and I kept looking at my phone, wishing the guy I have romantic feelings towards would text me and ask me to sit with them, but I never did see him and never got a text, so I woke up feeling sad and disappointed.

This dream may symbolize the longing for something or someone that is out of reach. The church represents a place of spiritual guidance and the fact that the dreamer is at work there suggests a strong connection to their faith. The friend from the Bible study group may represent a supportive and understanding figure in the dreamer’s life. The man the dreamer has romantic feelings for may symbolize a desire for a deeper connection with someone, possibly on a spiritual level. The fact that the dreamer knows he is there but cannot see him may represent the feeling of being unable to fully grasp or attain this desire.

The big event with people from other churches attending may symbolize the dreamer’s desire for a larger community and a sense of belonging. The sanctuary being like an arena may represent the intensity of these desires and the feeling of being overwhelmed by them. The dreamer sitting alone in the back of the balcony may symbolize a feeling of isolation and being on the outskirts of this desired community.

The dreamer’s constant checking of their phone and hoping for a text from the man may represent a reliance on external validation and the need for reassurance in their desires. The disappointment and sadness upon waking may symbolize the fear of never being able to fulfill these desires.

From a biblical perspective, this dream may be a reminder to trust in God’s plan and timing. It may also be a call to focus on building a deeper connection with God rather than seeking fulfillment in earthly desires. The dreamer may also need to examine their reliance on external validation and find contentment in their own self-worth as a child of God. Ultimately, this dream may serve as a reminder to surrender one’s desires to God and trust in His perfect plan for their life.
