Quotes from Joe Ibojie

a dream is welded to a dreamer's heart and has the potential of stirring up the deepest part of a human heart.

One meaning of a symbol is not necessarily its meaning for all dreams. Also, do not get fixed on a symbol's single meaning because it may change as you grow in your walk with God. As you study the Word of God, you will draw less on your own life experience and more from a biblical reservoir of examples.
