I was sleeping, and God came to me and said, "Wake up, for this day I have made you sick." I said, "If I am sick let me sleep," and God said, "This sickness does not allow for sleep." So I awoke and found that I was sick, so I said to God, "I fear that instead of worshiping God all this time I have been really worshiping the devil." God said, "The devil is my twin, and all that is true of me is true of him, and all that is true of him is true of me." I said, "How can this be?" He said, "Every morning the devil and I trade places: I am God for a day and devil for a day, I give blessings for a day and then make mischief for a day. We are twins, one of us suffering, the other in bliss: and I am in bliss for a day and then suffer for a day." He also said to me, "I have made you sick, and blessed you with sickness: this is your world: you are sick." And then he withdrew back into my dreams and I became fully awake, and I was deeply disturbed at all these revelations.
