Dyslexia Dream
Dyslexia Dream
This morning (2.15.2026) I awoke from a dream, where, as is common in most dreams I had dream dyslexia. Dream dyslexia is why, when most people dream, they struggle with reading, writing or dialing a number on a phone. They may open a book or call on a phone, in a dream, but making sense of the book’s paragraph or dialing a number, usually proves impossible.
The reason for this is that the brain does not have access to language processing centers and logic centers as we do when we are awake. Thus many numbers or letters become garbled or unstable in our dreams. I do have special dreams where this is not a problem. Once, decades ago I had been told by a Christian elder’s wife that such dreams are actually night visions. Such dreams or night visions are rare for me, but do happen.
This dream, was not exactly a normal dream, but not a night vision either.
No new song came of this dream. I was in in a dream, though. I dreamed I was sitting in a small adult Sunday School class. I was reading in my Bible as the class was about to start. A guy next to me, the teacher, asked, “What verse are you reading? How about sharing with the class!”
I replied, “I need to get a new Bible. Where the name of the book should be is blank. There are no verse numbers. When I look at the words they make no sense, but when I look away I know what the verse says.”
Another person at the table asked, “Are you in the Old Testament or the New?”
“The Old. I think. I don’t even know which version this is.” Keeping my finger in the book to save my place, I flipped the book so that I could see the cover. It was a paperback, but with brown simulated leather. “Other than that, the cover is blank. It doesn’t even have the word Bible printed on it or the version!”
The first brother asked, “What is the verse saying. If you explain it, maybe we can find it for you in our Bibles.”
“The Lord is steadfast. It also talked about the love of the Lord,” I replied.
Another person chimed in, “That verse sounds very familiar.”
“I know!” I exclaimed, “I know I have read this verse before when I am awake!”
There was a scene fade as the first brother to my right started his Bible study. The next dream scene began as the leader asked me if I wanted to ride along with him on an errand. I agreed.
He said, “You can keep me company, Brother Wayne. I am going to move some goats.”
End of dream.
When I awoke I wondered if the goats were real goats or if the brother was taking about the scriptural reference that differentiates between sheep and goats like in Matthew, Chapter 25.
Or maybe it was a dual prophecy of sorts. I don’t know.
“When the Son of Man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him,
then shall he sit upon the throne in all of his glory. And before him shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall separate them from one another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats.” Matthew 25:31-32. KJV

If you read on to verse 41, Jesus mentions the “goats” as being on the left hand, calls them cursed, and commands them to depart from him and go into the fire reserved for the devil and his fallen angels.
POST DREAM RESEARCH
When I awoke I performed a Google search and found that the ESV used the words steadfast and love together in four places.
-
Lamentations 3:22 and 23
-
Psalm 103:17
-
Isaiah 54:10
-
Psalm 89:2
All of these verses have both phrases “love” and “steadfast”, but while this pairing works perfectly for the ESV Bible, I could not find the pairing or even half of the phrasing in the KJV.
