A Troubling Dream
A pastor's wife had a vivid dream that troubled her deeply. In the dream, she saw a young man from their church driving his car late at night when he fell asleep at the wheel and crashed.
She told her husband about it, and though he was skeptical of such things at the time, something about her certainty made him call the young man.
The Warning Call
The pastor asked if he had plans to drive anywhere late that night.
The young man was surprised - yes, he had planned to drive several hours to visit his girlfriend after work. The pastor shared his wife's dream and encouraged him to either leave earlier or wait until morning.
The young man was shaken. He admitted he had been exhausted lately and had considered that he might fall asleep on the drive. He changed his plans and drove the next morning after a full night's sleep.
Confirmation of the Warning
Weeks later, a friend of his fell asleep at the wheel on the same stretch of highway and was killed in a crash. The young man called the pastor in tears, thanking him for the warning that may have saved his life.
