Dreams
What does the Bible say about dreams? I've been having a lot of dreams lately, and I am trying to figure out if they mean anything or if it is just stories my mind has made up while sleeping. I also ask this because are so many websites out there that interpret dreams, and I wonder how much is real and how much is fake and how to tell the difference.
The Bible does not address the kinds of dreams you and I might have. As you suggest, the information that enters our minds before we sleep can easily become the stuff of dreams.
Perhaps you would find value in adapting the following hymn verse as a bedtime prayer: “When in the night I sleepless lie, My soul with heav’nly thoughts supply; Let no ill dreams disturb my rest, No pow’rs of darkness me distress. Praise God, from whom all blessings flow; Praise him, all creatures here below; Praise him above, ye heav’nly host; Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.” (Christian Worship 592:3)
