Hot... Bed... Action!


Well I woke up early yesterday morning wondering who had put a hot waterbottle next to my feet? But no, it was only that my bed was ON FIRE !! I had fallen asleep with the lamp on, and it took advantage of the situation by deciding, after three months, to leap off the shelf... or did it...?

Who is responsable...?
- Was it a freaky accident?
- Did I try and turn it off in the night and bump it off, so tired that I don't remember doing so?
- Perhaps the hippy boys I live with were so angry at my waste of electricity on Thursday evening, when I dried my clothes in the tumble dryer despite the 35 degree heat, and that now I was leaving the light on all night... they are trying to 'accidently' get rid of me!?
- Is Satan trying to kill me, before I do my Faith Walk? He certainly has tried before...

Is it a sign from God...?
- Wrath? Maybe Jesus really never made a mistake!?
- Goodness? Perhaps fire represents the Spirit of God and Feet represent walking, and since I wasn't harmed, God is saying that I walk with the Spirit?
- Am I an Angel? Revelation CH10 talks about an Angel with feet of fire... sure the Angel also wears clothes of clouds and has a rainbow over his head, but 1 out of 3 is a start...!

How can I use the situation to my advantage...?
- Some new pick-up lines come to mind...
'Hey baby, my bed is HOT... and I can prove it.'
'Feel free to smoke in bed, I know I do...'
'Like my lamp, you will melt in my arms...'

What are the cultural References...?
- Midnight Oil 'How can we sleep when our beds are burning?'
- Psalm 119:105 'Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path' (could be another sign...)
