Dreams overnight:

I was massively tangled in work and technology-related things. There were electrical cords, internet and communication cables everywhere. Buried in the mess were sensors and connecting wires that I was supposed to straighten out and get working. It was overwhelming and none of the pieces seemed to be compatible with any others, so completing every connection was long and involved.

Many of the sensors were supposed to be installed in an underground structure, and there was a parking garage attached to it. I suddenly knew that I needed to leave, to get away, and started to drive through the garage towards the exit, but other cars began to pull out trying to block me. I was in a truck that seemed to have a large rubber bumper, so I was able to simply push the other cars out of the way without smashing them.

I made my way into an outdoor space and was out of the truck working on some part of this tangled mess when I found myself side by side with Judith. She was about 24, with long dark hair pulled back, and we were working together, and then fighting something together.

I heard my name being called by some people who needed me to give a report to a larger group or team. I didn’t go right away, and they began to be much more insistent. “Coach Bill is waiting, man, and he wants you in there right now!” I realized that it’s Coach Bill Belichick they’re talking about and with a sheaf of papers in my hands, go into a meeting room.

There is a team there, but it’s not a football team, more like a very serious group of other operational players, and I give my report on what’s been done, the list of successes, and the list of things that still need fixing. Coach Bill gives a long set of instructions and assignments, and everyone is dispatched. I am being sent somewhere far away.

Outside, Judith sits with me, and we are talking about the assignments. She is holding my hands and she says, “Go,” with complete love and confidence.

I awake with a start and pray: “Lord, what does this mean? Help me understand. What is she saying? Go where? Tell me, Lord, I pray.”
