I'm wondering where exactly to classify some of my 'dreams'. Sometimes I'm fully awake when these vivid pictures come into my head, exactly like my dreams. These pictures sometimes teach lessons, sometimes have been connected to situations in the future, and sometimes mean nothing at all. Some have been calming, and some have been extrememly disturbing. Are these really dreams, or am I a prophet?
I've talked to my campus pastor, who said that though these things might not make sense now, but they will years from now when I look back on them. She said that God has a plan for my life which I may not be able to find now. This made the most sense to me at the time, but I am curious as to what these pictures are.
I don't want to label myself as a prophet, in case I'm only feeling pride and being something more special than others. I have read books about demonic influences, and those definitions definitely do not describe myself. I have a feeling these are sent from God, and I have prayed often about this, but have no definite answer from him.
