The majority of our dreams we never remember after we have risen from our sleep. Most of us are hardly aware of our dreams. That is very normal and healthy! If someone always remembers their dreams every morning when they awake, they will be a strange person, easily deceived, a "dreamer". If God ever speaks to us in, or through, a dream, it would be, and should be, a very unusual experience and one that we clearly know is different, because it comes from God.
