Rubber Gloves and Chemical War

Feeling Upon Waking: No feeling
Spiritual Activity: None

I was in the parking lot in front of the shopping mall in Hermitage where the Wal-Mart now is. (This is where our old church, Harvest used to meet.) There was someone's house where the Taco Bell currently is.

People were handing out free supplies to everyone for what I feel was going to be chemical warfare - many colors of rubber gloves like you would clean the sink with. They weren't giving out military-grade protection, just regular supplies and making them work. I felt there was going to be another war and people were getting supplies to go to war. I was not going to war, but others were. People were not in a panic. I felt the war was far away and it would not directly affect me.

At the same time this was going on, I was hanging out with people who wanted to watch the 2nd Transformers movie. I wanted to watch Transformers 1 and 2 and everyone else only wanted to watch the 2nd movie.

I think this has something to do with the Lord's provision and miracles. He takes whatever we have and multiplies it or makes it work in some way. It speaks to the faith of people in our country to cry out to the Lord for His miraculous intervention as we use what we have and trust Him- those who have, will be given more... Our weapons are not carnal, but mighty through God. Multiple colors could represent the variety of people and beliefs and races. We are sort of stuck with different beliefs here within our country and government. but God!!! Of course, his rainbow means promise not to destroy, whereas the rainbow can also symbolize carnal things if you are looking at it from a worldly perspective. There is a choice of where we can place our faith, of where everyone in our country can place our faith.That you wanted to watch both transformers movies, probably 1, then 2, I think speaks to your history of letting the word of the Lord build within you line upon line. You are one who requires a good foundation. Others around you may tend to skip over the foundational truths. You help bring them back to where everything is coming from. Transformers has a theme song, "more than meets the eye". That goes along with those gloves doing more and serving more and protecting more than it would seem.
