Half-asleep vision

Last night, in a half-sleep, I had a vision of healing being delivered to me, in response to a prayer, and arriving in the form of a gryphon.

As I lay in the dark, I thought to myself: "How odd. Why a gryphon (I prefer that spelling, perhaps because of Lewis Carroll)?

So I did a little googling this evening, and it turns out...

The griffin's dual nature led it to be associated with Jesus Christ, God and man, king of heaven and earth. The eagle half of the griffin signified Christ's divinity and the lion half represented His humanity. Because no one could block the path of a griffin, this creature was especially associated with that passage in the Gospel which records Christ's marvelous passage through the crowd at Nazareth who were determined to throw Him off a cliff. [Luke 4:28-30] During the Middle Ages, griffins were symbols of Christ's resurrection. The strength of the lion and the wisdom of the eagle combined in the griffin symbolized the strength and wisdom of God.

Now it's entirely possible that I'd read something along these lines long ago, during my childhood fascination with mythological beasts. But I find it marvelous that this is what appeared to my mind's eye on Easter eve.
