Fire is coming

 The huge fire was on the horizon way up on a long hill.  The road leading up the hill was next to a river flowing down from the hill.  I was traveling up the hill towards the fire when suddenly the fire began to come down the hill very quickly. I had wanted something that was on the hill but now abandoned those plans. The fire was just to close. I looked towards the river and there were people casually floating along in the water seemingly unaware of the dangerous fire coming towards them.  They thought that as long as they were in the water that they were safe from the fire. I saw my children.  I found a boat that I could get into and begged my kids to get in the boat.  They wanted to get one of their toys.  I begged them to hurry. Finally I relented and said that if they just got in the boat they could bring one single toy with them only they needed to hurry up and get in the boat.  Others around were just lazily playing around in the water, while I was trying to yell at everyone to start moving down the river and away from the fire. They laughed and said that they were perfectly safe because of the water. I was then reminded of when Elijah was on Mount Carmel and the fire came down and devoured not only the sacrifice but also everything else, even the water that was in the ditch. And then I woke up.
