Summer, that was an excellent example of what may be God speaking to you. I know it is easy to dismiss a message from Him but I think it is wise to evaluate what may be messages (through others) by Him or dreams that may hold a meaning from Him.
I know that some messages may not be messages but "false hope". Personally, I don't believe in false hope. I believe in hope as we are told numerous times to have. After all, isn't prayer a form of hope?
I used to try to interpret messages from different sources including dreams as to whether they hold special significance without considering if they were "godly" messages or simply chance. Over the past couple of years, I have responded to the command to discern whether the messages do not conflict with God's rules.
Your story really gave me shivers. I cannot help but think that it is a good message. And I love the fact that the message still got through even though an attempt was made to block it. I sincerely believe that there is an evil one that doesn't want marriages to be restored and he will use whatever methods to try to distract us. I know we can do a lot of the damage ourselves.
