As I listened to the creation stories of many different tribes of Native Americans I realized just how important it is for each person to write down or paint or sing songs about their version of reality. Often in a Tribe everyone's dreams at night are important to the group of people together there because dreams often explain what is going on. So, when people share important dreams often it gives some meaning and purpose to what people are going through right then in the family or group.
So, I think it is important to share your deepest experiences with others because often it begins to heal them too.
I am a firm believer of "Progressive Revelation" as God manifests through all of us in the world. To try to find God in any book written 2000 or 5000 or 10,000 years ago is actually pretty unlikely.
It is much more likely that you will find God in the Wilderness, walking through Trees, or by the ocean or walking across a desert or in your dreams at night. God isn't just in a book, God is written in your ever strand of DNA, in every molecule and atom in your body and in every living thing on earth with DNA, and in every rock or blade of grass on earth and in every grain of sand on earth. God is in everything in the universe. There is nothing you can say or do or any place you can be where God is not.
By God's Grace
