In this dream, the dreamer is working as a therapist and is surrounded by people in a classroom setting. The dreamer is sitting at a round table with two or three others, and they begin to discuss their relationship with Jesus. This is accompanied by a song by Shirley Caesar, which talks about the difference between religion and relationship. The dreamer and others join in singing the song, and the dreamer proclaims that they used to have religion, but now they have a relationship with Jesus. Everyone in the dream is dressed in white lab coats, symbolizing purity and righteousness. However, the dreamer notices a young woman at the table with a severe skin condition, resembling that of a crocodile’s skin that has been burned. This woman is wearing a coat to cover her skin, possibly out of shame or insecurity.
This dream can be interpreted as a reminder of the importance of having a personal relationship with Jesus rather than just following religious practices. The dreamer, as a therapist, is in a position to guide others towards a deeper connection with God. The round tables symbolize unity and equality, as everyone is sitting together and discussing their faith. The song by Shirley Caesar emphasizes the idea that many people may have religion, but not a true relationship with God. The dreamer’s proclamation of having a relationship with Jesus shows their personal growth and understanding of the difference between the two.
The woman with the skin condition represents those who may feel ashamed or insecure about their faith. The dreamer’s role as a therapist is to help guide and support these individuals towards a deeper relationship with God, where they can find healing and acceptance. The white lab coats worn by everyone in the dream symbolize the purity and righteousness that comes from having a relationship with Jesus. This dream serves as a reminder to prioritize our relationship with God over religious practices and to show love and support to those who may be struggling in their faith journey.
