Create a small 'sanctuary' on a tabletop. Place a cup of clean water (purity), a lit candle (spirit), and a small stone (foundation). Sit before it for five minutes, breathing slowly. Then, write a single question of faith or morality on a slip of paper and place it under the stone, symbolically entrusting it to a higher structure.

"4.8.26 I dreamt that Pastor Lamont and I were married. Although we were newlyweds, the marriage looked like we were just platonic friends. We went out together (to dinner or something like that) and I was holding my trench coat, he took my coat and he indicated that he would hang it up somewhere so that we could enjoy wherever we were. When it was time for us to leave our place of rendezvous he went to retrieve my coat but it was missing, he couldn't find it. Next Lamont took me to a house that was located on a hill and occupied by a church official (perhaps a church mother). Her home was high, she met us on her porch and I remembered her, so I introduced myself by saying, "you may not remember me but you knew me as Missionary Robin but now I am" Lamont at this time whispered in my ear and told me to tell her that I'm "Elder Robin Lamont Franklin" so I told her just that. She dropped something from the porch and she went down to retrieve it and then she ushered us into her home. Our purpose for being at her home was for her to help us find my coat. Intermittently Lamont and I held hands or showed a little affection with little hugs from time to time. The woman say down in a room that was more like a parlor room. Her hands were occupied doing something. Then Pastor Sneed (she was healthy) came in the room and she laid on her stomach across this bed and I believe she was counting money. There another women in the room as well. One of the ladies spotted a ladybug in the parlor room and the church mother told her not to harm it because it is good luck. The church mother and myself love ladybugs. So the ladybug was left alone. I believe that there were a total of 5 women in this room and one male which was Lamont. End of dream "
