                    Scattering & Spewing

Scattering
----------

I saw a large dandelion seed in the Lord's hand and heard the word scattering.
The Lord says  "Just as a child will blow upon this seed, so I am going to 
blow a fresh wind upon my people and scatter.  Some will not go far.  They 
will land in fertile places and instantly take root and begin to produce, 
but others will be blown about for a season.  They may land and spend some 
time at one place or another but they have a distance to go and the wind 
will come again and move them.  Do not despair, for out of this scattering 
will come many."

Spewing
-------

I saw a large dormant volcano and heard the voice of the Lord saying: "This 
is My church.  There has been much activity inside but to the outside world 
it appears to be dormant.  But the shaking is coming and the church will be 
dormant no more.  Just as the fire and lava spew forth and light up the sky 
and attract much attention, just as they burn up all the old and lay down 
new ground, the church is going to spew forth!  The time of dormancy, the 
time of preparation, is over.  It is time for great and mighty works and 
sings and wonders to be displayed.  It is time to erupt out of complacency 
with fervent zeal and take the land."
