A Dream Come True

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is. (Rom 12)

Day after day, Ordinary showed up at his Usual Job. But while he worked, he thought about his Dream. He thought about how wonderful it would be to do what he loved to do instead of just dreaming about it.

Ordinary’s longing for his Big Dream grew and grew, until finally he realized that he’d never be happy unless he could pursue it. Why didn’t the Dream Giver make it possible?

If the Dream Giver didn’t, how could Ordinary ever leave Familiar? He had payments and expenses. He had regular duties. A lot of Nobodies counted on him for lot of things.

Ordinary felt completely stuck. Time passed, but nothing changed.
(from “The Dream Giver” by Bruce Wilkinson)

If, like me, you’ve had a Dream turn to dust; there is still hope for the future. God has a Big Dream for each of us that we can accomplish with what’s left of our life. But, time will turn all our dreams to dust if we don’t begin to do something. If we seek God and trust Him as we take chances, push through the fear of stepping out of our comfort zone, and don't turn back to the Familiar we will begin to see our Dream come true.

• Let’s commit that Today and daily we will each take some step in the direction of our Big Dream.

• Let's DO SOMETHING.

I chose you to go and bear fruit – fruit that will last. (John 15)
