i had a dream today. i dreamt that i walked around an ancient city.
i dreamt that this city was the centre point for 3 of the great spiritual traditions of planet earth.
these traditions all came down from a man called Abraham. "Your descendants will be as numerous as the stars" God said to him.
these traditions were called Jewish, Christian and Muslim.
we walked through this city. everything looked calm. we passed shops and street sellers, people on their way to work or school or study.
we visited the church where Christ was buried, before his ressurection; then passed on through the Western Wall.
i saw a city of great faiths, all praying together in their separate ways. and the God of all was so pleased, to see this human city, where these 3 traditions and all their offshoots, had found such complicated, ingenious, devout ways of following him and living holy lives.
the powerful example of such unity in diversity spread and inspired the entire world. people flocked to the Holy City, to breathe in this special air, so they too could learn. the people were peaceful and happy.
TODAY, IN THE GLORIOUS SUNSHINE, IF I ONLY LOOKED AT WHAT I SAW, I COULD HAVE BELIEVED IN THIS DREAM I HAVE JUST DESCRIBED. TOMMORROW I TRAVEL TO HEBRON. MAYBE TOMORROW I WILL SEE WHAT IS BEHIND THE DREAM
