The Bunny that Wouldn't Die: A Prophetic Dream

I dreamed, last night, about a bunny. I knew, after it was over, that it was prophetic--that it was "For Someone." I'm sharing it here so I will remember it, and just in case somebody ever needs to know WHEN it happened and WHY I recorded it.

----------------------------------------------------------------

I dreamed there was a bunny someone had caught for a family to eat. They skinned the bunny, all but prepared it, but they couldn't cook it because the family had gone away on a trip. So it was placed in the freezer to store until the family came home and they could get it out, prepare it, and eat it.

The family came home earlier than expected and the one who prepared their food went to the freezer to get the bunny out. When the freezer was opened, the bunny--though slow and frozen--was found to be alive! It opened its eyes and slowly moved and finally managed to hop out of the freezer to escape.

Though the bunny had managed to escape, it was caught, again, to be prepared for a meal. This time, the bunny was put into an oven pot. The heat was turned up and the water was boiling. But for some reason, when the cook went to check, the bunny was still alive, so he freed it.

And, yet, though he had been freed twice, the bunny was caught a third time when the family was hungry and the meal was being prepared. This third time, the bunny was placed in a small pressure cooker. It was a cooker that was sealed on all sides, and there was no way for the bunny to escape. And although there was clearly no hope, no way out of this contraption, when the preparer went to check on the status of their "meal," the bunny was found to be alive! And so they freed the bunny again!

After this third time, I said to the preparer and the family who had planned to eat it, "This bunny has lived all three times. It has not been meant to be eaten."

And the family agreed and set the bunny free to live in whatever way he wished...but they wondered, this time, if the bunny would stay close or flee for good.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I felt so strongly about the nature of this dream that I grabbed my phone and recorded my notes so I wouldn't forget the dream.

I felt STRONGLY that this dream was for someone who has experienced--or will experience--three near-death experiences, or, at the very least, three EXTREMELY GRUELING "pressure cooker" situations.

The message I got clearly was that they were not going to die--no matter how it looked or seemed or felt. They would LIVE. And they would, finally, be FREE, once and for all. And they would be able to make CHOICES for themselves again.

Note: I am not the kind of person to label things as "prophetic"--but I felt convinced that this dream was. That is was specifically "for someone." So it is in such faith that I have given this post its title.
