Smoke comes before a Fire

As I learn more about how God speaks to me and specifically how He is growing a gift of prophecy in me, I am fascinated.

The way the specific pictures (visions, whatever) that I get are really just a slight twist on reality.  It feels like a day dream, but way more vivid.  Like I can actually see it... not just imagine it.

Yesterday this happened to me and was the first in awhile.  I was just sitting on the couch watching TV when to my left I "saw" smoke.  The kind of smoke that comes when there is a large fire.  I knew this was from God due to my immediate reaction.  The thought that popped in my head was, "I think that when I withhold speaking truth it is like not telling someone I see smoke and there is a fire."

Upon thinking through it today, there is some truth I am keeping inside.  The kind that could prevent a fire from happening.  Kind of crazy.
