"I can almost always sense when I am going to have an unpleasant surprise within a day or so..."

Here is your operative phrasing...almost always. You are a good guesser, my FRiend. If you were a prophet, you would know it. And, I think I can safely agree with you that you are not God.

Thus, you are not seeing the future...you are guessing. Sometimes you will be right (I'll bet that home prices increase in Las Vegas) and sometimes you will be wrong (Gold will skyrocket tomorrow). Do not misperceive these as seeing into the future. Scripture specifically prohibits attempts to do so (other than your guessing and admitting it is a guess OR using your wisdom to anticipate something routine...your wife coming home for dinner). When you know the Powerball numbers and will stake your life on them, let us know. Then you may be a prophet.

Well, perhaps I am not as good a writer as I could be. What I mean is that if I sense that something bad will happen it does. I cannot always sense it, but more often I do. That's not guess work. I can absolutely feel the difference between when I am guessing and when I sense something. As I say, you can believe it or not, I am not pushing my view on anyone. I'm just telling you what I've leared in my life.

As to specificity, I'll give you one example, but there are many others. One night, many years ago, I dreamt that a large tree branch crashed through the celling in my parent's bedroom in the dark. It was a vivid dream, I saw the plaster coming down, I heard the crack and crunch as the limb came through. I saw exactly where in the room it was going to happen, and saw it was dark outside. Oddly, I did not see my parents in the room. I called my mother the next morning and told her what I saw, and begged her not to sleep in her room that night. I had never done that before. That night there was sudden storm and a large tree toppled over and crushed the roof above my parent's room. When I arrived there the morning after, there was the limb, just as I had seen it, and just where I saw it. My parents having spent the night in the basement were unhurt. My mother listened to me because I was her child, and she noticed my weird intuition about things. Yeah, maybe I am just a good guesser, but I have learned to rely on it.
