Beyond your wildest dreams...


"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."
Ephesians 3:20

   You know those dreams you have... those dreams that seem insane to the normal eye. Those dreams that you have no clue how they're going to happen. Those dreams that seem impossible. The dream thats unique to you, and only you can really understand how your heart beats for it. Well that dream isn't crazy, no matter what some say. It was a dream planted inside of you for purpose by your Creator for such a time as this. It can be the smallest desire or the greatest out-of-this-world aspiration ever. Whatever it is, its there for a purpose. But the hard part comes with waiting. Wow, how its hard to wait on His perfect time to manifest those dreams. I know, because I'm dealing with this very situation as I type. I have this dream inside of me that seems absolutely impossible at the moment. When I think about it doubts rush into my mind and with those doubts come worry, a place where God isn't. Thats when faith kicks in, because its in those impossible moments that God works His wonder. So when your ultimate heart's desire comes true, there will be no one to thank or acknowledge for it, but God. Because He is the only one that could do it. Its a lot easier to tell someone to have faith than to actually have it. Trust me. But what overwhelming peace comes when you realize that you don't have to take care or manifest that dream of yours on your own. God put it there, and He will be faithful to bring it to pass.

"Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; He's the one who will keep you on track (who will show you the path to take)." 
Proverbs 3: 5,6
"A man's heart plans his way, but the Lord directs His steps."
Proverbs 16:9

  My realization of beauty in all of this is that each of us has a dream, whether its big or small, crazy or sane, simple or impossible. God placed it there to impact the world in a mighty way. So why would He put it there if He wasn't going to do anything with it? Trust him. His timing is impeccable.
