Have you ever been given a vision from God? [Spirituality & Religion]

This was around a week ago, I told my husband about it but I didn't tell him everything because I wasn't sure what it was either.

You know, I always loved dolls, they were posessions that chained me from what's important. I hated being materialistic and worrying what I might have to bring when I travel, but I was afraid to let go of what I owned. One night, that was shortly after I started believing and praying, I saw something, it wasn't like a dream, but I'm not sure what else to call it. I was in my room on my bed, I saw the doll on the shelve that I really liked, something communicated with me almost telepathically. I knew it told me to sell it, I also saw my body and it was really light in the dark room. Like I saw nothing but light on myself.

Next morning I only told my husband about the part with the doll and not my body, but he said that this is what happens when you get too much into believes, they manipulate your mind. But wasn't I manipulated by the things I owned?

What are your thoughts on this? Have you had something similar happen to you? In my heart I felt this wasn't like anything else I saw.

Have you taken any steps toward actually selling the doll, and have you considered what you might do with the money from it?

@Silverwings good question! I am going to sell it, I'm not sure what I will do with the money yet, but I'm sure God wants me to put it in good use.

Have you asked him?

@Silverwings I think about two years ago when my brother committed suicide, but I didn't become serious about changing until recently. I always felt inside me that I was not doing what God wanted me to, spend so much money on myself, acted greedy, lived the life I thought I always wanted, but it was empty and shameful. At some point it just clicked in me, that I either change today or never. I read about peoples personal encounters with Jesus, it all made sense to me and now I can't turn away from the truth. And I believe through my prayer God listened to me.

I am terribly sorry about your brother, my dad did that when I was 10, it affected my sister terribly because she was left in the house with him laying in his own blood, while my mom ran to a neighbors to call an ambulance
