Trust in the God that has given you the dream.

In the Shadows of Promise is an anthology of poetry based on my dreams. I have made love in my dreams, explored new lands, spoken foreign languages, and even experienced life through the eyes of other beings. I have been killed in battle, though I have no real life military experience. It is as if in some dreams I merge into the dreams or lives of others. Some incredibly happy, some terribly sad, some horrific. Some dreams leave me with a sense of purity and innocence.
