I just want to start off and say, I'm not crazy. lol. Please reply back and let me know what was on your mind after reading this!
I am a Vietnamese-American born in Pleiku, Vietnam. My parents came over to the U.S. under the refugee act. While young, my father was agnostic while my mother was Buddhist.
My babysitters happened to be Christian at the time and taking me to church. We'd have to sing, do plays, and remember bible verses per our study. My parents were away working majority of my childhood, so in exchange, I was constantly with this christian family. (It'd turn out later that all the stuff that has happened in my life was to surround me in a Christian environment, even though my family and friends weren't. God is amazing. I'll make a post for this in another thread in the future!)
At about 5-7 years old, I looked up into the Florida sky and was looking at the sun. But it wasn't a sun, it was man sitting in a chair, and all I could think of was "Abraham Lincoln" in the sky. In my heart I knew what I saw. The man sitting int he throne was embodied by the sun or was as bright as the sun. I could not see his face because it was too bright. I saw the man sitting in the chair but didn't think much of it, I thought other people would see him too for some reason.
Later in life, about 10-12, I would have horrible sleep paralysis and horrible nightmares. In the FIRST dream, I was in a dark room with no doors or windows. It was pitch dark. A little girl appeared in front of me and overwhelming fear took over me. In the dream, I cried out to Jesus and suddenly... a man wearing white clothes (can't remember what he was wearing) appeared and said, "Begone." The little girl who I thought was demonic, suddenly vanished. The feeling of fear and dread immediately disappeared. The dream was over. I was unable to see the man's face but was only able to see his back.
Few months to 2 years later, I had my SECOND dream with that same man. Same thing, can't see his face, only his back, he was wearing white. Difference is this dream was in 3rd person. I saw myself standing beside the man, on a grassy hill. From my third person perspective, we were looking down or from afar to a grand city. The city had walls, and those are the only details I can remember. Nothing was said from the man.
My dreams were very vague. I'd grow into adult hood and understand revelation and New Jerusalem and when i first learned of the city, all I could think of was the 2nd dream I had with the man that was beside me. In my heart, I think
I never wanted to share the dreams I had because I didn't want people to think I was crazy or psycho, but always had a uncomfortable feeling in my heart and stomach that I needed to, even though I didn't want to.
I am currently 26 years old, so the man in the sky was around 1995-1997. The dream with the man in white, who I believe to be Jesus... was around 1999-2001.
There it is, something I saw, something I dreamed...
