Time2Believe...In Dreams!

Ephesians 3:20
God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest  dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us. Glory to God in the church! Glory to God in the Messiah, in Jesus! Glory down all the generations! Glory through all millennia! Oh, yes!

Each one of us has a dream...

   To be successful.

   To fall in love.

   To become famous.

   To be a mom. 

   To write a book

   To travel the world.

The list goes on and on. But have you ever wondered what God's dream was for you??? When you come into His presence and sit at His feet, your dream is so small compared to His dream!! Don't get me wrong, you won't always know where you are headed or what to do. But that is the best part. It's an adventure. He is expecting us to trust Him. Reaching His dream is a journey, it involves scary valleys and majestic mountain top views. If it was an easy stroll through the park, it wouldn't mean anything to us. Another amazing thing is if you are listening to the Father's voice and your heart is tuned to His voice, His dreams will be your dreams. God knows the desires of our hearts and He does not disappoint, instead He pours out mighty blessings. 


Sometimes you follow God and His calling only to end up confused and frustrated. But that is when He wants us to cry out and ask, "ummm what am I doing here?" I can tell you from recent personal experience, believing is the most difficult part about following God's dream for your life. When life is messed up and not going as you planned. Stop. Look at the smallest things. For it is there that you will see God's hand at work. Sometimes we get so overwhelmed with the BIG LIFE picture that we miss the beauty in the details. Stay strong no matter what you are facing... God has not left you. He has hold of you and won't ever let go. 

Take the next step. Surrender your dreams and let Him have them. Barlow Girl's say it perfectly in their song.

"Surrender"

My hands hold safely to my dreams 

Clutching tightly not one has fallen

So many years I've shaped each one

Reflecting my heart showing who I am

Now you're asking me to show 

What I'm holding oh so tightly

Can't open my hands can't let go

Does it matter?

Should I show you?

Can't you let me go?

Surrender, surrender you whisper gently

You say I will be free

I know but can't you see?

My dreams are me. My dreams are me

You say you have a plan for me

And that you want the best for my life

Told me the world had yet to see

What you can do with one

That's committed to Your calling

I know of course what I should do

That I can't hold these dreams forever

If I give them now to You

Will You take them away forever?

Or can I dream again? 

When you surrender your dreams, God will show you that He has even more in store for you. More than you can even imagine. 

But NOW IS THE TIME2BELIEVE... IN HIS DREAMS!!
