The Hurricane and the Peaches of Georgia
Dreams of the night

This past week I had one of the wildest dreams I've had in a while. In the dream I saw peach trees growing next to a pool. They were raging in the grip of a hurricane force wind. They were inside of a fence.
The interpretation of this was interesting and I believe based on genetic experimentation by certain companies in the USA. The dream indicated that there was a strong possibility that the genetic experiment would break loose and infect other fruits and fruit trees across the United States. Now I wrote about this on Monday, October 3rd, on my website www.earth-house.com and stated these things as speculation.
Now I have never considered myself to be a prophet but I do believe God has gifted me with the ability to hear prophetic words from Him. This means that He gives me the dreams, I spend time listening for His interpretation, and then I write down what I hear. Needless to say I was very nervous about this interpretation for various reasons. First because it indicated that something had gone into the peach trees that had to be eradicated. Second that there was a possibility they were about to break loose and spread across the entire NE part of the United States starting in Georgia. That would infect a trillion dollar industry.
So how do you deal with this kind of knowledge? In most cases I would have written it and then forgotten about it. In my case I wrote it and then eliminated it by removing it from Earth House the next day because I didn't understand it. Like I say I'm not a perfect human being and I like to think that I had courage to leave it up. But I didn't and if there is a sin involved it was mine. Still when God gives us dreams and shows us the possibilities of what is to come they can be scary. The future can be a scary place and disasters such as the destruction of a crop from Peaches to Apples doesn't sound so 'horrible' on the surface unless it is a terminator crop. In that case wouldn't writing it down indicate that I did what was right initially?
Anyway I wrote it down and forgot about it. That is until today when I was working on Earth House news updates and found out something strange had happened on Wednesday this week. There had been a named Tropical Storm Tammy that had struck the South East corner of Georgia and then skipped back out to sea. To be honest it send chills cause here was absolute proof to me that not only did that dream hit dead center but the proof of it came within a few days.
When I first started speaking to God He said something interesting to me. That as I spend more and more time with Him that the 'delay' between us would begin to be eliminated. Thus as I grow in knowledge of the Glory of God that knowledge begins to be shown in the things He reveals in/or through me. I admit this story is hard to understand since it didn't really get on the regular news. I do believe though that God was showing me there was a danger in a terminator seed in the SE corner of Georgia that was about to break loose on the USA and the world. God sent a class one hurricane and it hit that corner pocket and took all the contents of the radical peaches out to sea. This is a case of answered prayer and I know it was God who answered that prayer.

Desoto Sun Herald- the remnants of Tropical Storm Tammy refused to fulfill predictions. The storm was projected by the National Hurricane Center to come ashore near Jacksonville, which it did, and then move north through Georgia, which it didn't.
Instead, Tammy turned around after entering Georgia and traveled south. Friday morning, it popped into the Gulf of Mexico near Panama City and then began a loop, moving east until it finally looped into Apalachicola and was caught up in the advancing cold front.
But the swinging tail of Tammy beat up the storm near the Yucatan and blasted it with dry air. As a result, that storm fell apart before reaching tropical depression status.
Tropical Storm Tammy-This image to the right speaks of it moving N-NW but the storm, after entering Georgia, reversed course and ended up in the Yucatan.
