The past couple of months God has been pressing something deeply on my heart about the passions, dreams and goals that he has placed within me. So many times I feel like I look at what I want my life to be and the person I want to become, and honestly it seems nearly impossible. How am I going to do this? How will I become this person? And I think it can be so easy to underestimate the power of the God we serve. I have looked at things and said "that's impossible" Instead of realizing that God is a God of the impossible. So for any of you who may be feeling the same way, I hope these next few paragraphs will motivate you, inspire and help you to realize that the dreams God has placed inside of you are good and you can reach them, if you put your trust completely in the hands of our amazing creator.... When the Lord created you, he created you with incredible potential. He created you with thoughts, goals, dreams and the ability to impact the world. As humans we were given the capability to make a difference in everything we do. Humanity has endless resource's of talents, passions, imagination and gifts instilled among all of it's citizens. The world needs you at your best. The world needs you to live up to the full potential that was so carefully crafted and placed within you. We need to live this life with our eyes wide open, people are dying from diseases that we need to find the cure for, people are starving and we need to feed them, there are children that need our love, and elderly that need us to care for them. And when allow God to becomes the center in our lives he becomes the motivator for our hearts and the inspirer for our dreams. What kind of life would you lead if fear wasn’t a factor? If impossible seemed more like a dare than a declaration? What if I told you it isn't darkness that gives power to fear, but it is fear that gives power to the darkness. What if all your reasons not to fear outnumbered your reasons not to try? You can make an impact in the world. It is up to you to make the most of the life that you are given. To take that step, to be brave, be bold, step up and step out. Don’t let fear come into your mind and stop you from living the life of adventure that God has intended you to live. Because whether you recognize it right now or not, you were created to impact the world in one way or another. It doesn’t matter where. At home in your own community or on the other side of the world in a foreign country, you have the capacity and capability to make a difference. Life is an incredible journey. An extraordinary adventure. To create a different world is both a courageuos act and a creative act. The world needs your dreams and ideas. Because the future of what the world is going to become is inside the minds of all of us. I don’t know about you, but at the end of my life, I want to know that I lived up to the potential that God has created in me, that I made the mark he intended me to make and that I used the resources given to me to bring the hope of salvation to the places God has called me to go. Part of the way God works in us is gives us dreams of the life we could lead or the people we could become If we just choose to trust him and live courageously. So how about it? Are you going to live a courageous life and pursue the dreams that God has planted inside of you? Because life is short, and the world needs you living at your best and fullest potential. |
