Dreams

I think one of the most extreme things God has done for me, is to allow me to dream. When everything isn’t working quite right and I don’t feel like I can hang on, I can still dream.

Dreaming isn’t envy or greed.
For me, dreaming wants something that God wants. Dreaming is something that I hope for.
Sometimes God doesn’t fulfill all of our dreams or at least not right away.
He has a master plan I can’t see all of it so, sometimes I just have to trust him.
Sometimes God doesn’t take away all of our pain.
Sometimes he walks with us thru the dirt and the grime and while we’re walking, we’re dreaming of life outside of what we are going thru.
I’m not dreaming of what I am now. I do not want to be the same person 15,5 or even 1 year from now.
I’m dreaming of who I am going to be, of what I’m going to do with my life.
I can then dream of something bigger than what I could’ve dreamed before I went thru what I went thru.
Because I’ve grown, I’m a different person and since I allowed God to grow in me while I’m having these difficulties, I can do things I’ve never thought I could do.
I can trust God more. Trust is a huge thing for me. So I’m glad I have it in God.

I believe that the biggest dreams have come during some of the roughest patches in people’s lives.
I mean, there’s no need to dream when everything is just going fine.
Sure we still can, but how much more I cling to God and my dreams when times are tough.

We all need to dream.
What can I be? Who can I become? What is my purpose?These questions can lead to dreams and desires, and after that, they may lead to your purpose.

God bless
