Nightmares


Job 4:13-14    New English Translation     

13 In the troubling thoughts of the dreams in the night

when deep sleep falls on men, 14 dread gripped me and trembling,

which made all my bones shake.

 

Nightmares triggered by Darkness and his cohorts

 

Dreams can also be driven by the psychological

What the mind runs over with has to be released

Experiences of the past and the ones of the near present

Are activated by the multitude of thoughts, hopes, and fears

 

I guess here is one that is triggered the psychological

It maybe has to do with how you feel or what to digest

Maybe what you see as others suffer from joint hurts

Will amplify uncertainties that reflect your need for rest
