Check it.


This is *a little bit of what I journaled about this morning..
To dream is important. I think it's a cool thing God gave us the ability to do, to want, hope, and wish. Problem is (@ least for me) I think I'm scared of dreaming without Him. Of putting hope, expectation, and desire into something to then potentially never see it come to pass. I wonder what part of my dreams are God-inspired and what part is just my own. God, I don't want to do things apart from You. I think what I need to just know is that, YES, I may need to surrender some dreams and trust in His timing, but the key point to remember is the truth of how LOVING, GOOD, and FOR US, God is.
I'm going to dream and hope and be willing to surrender them because You KNOW what I need and You KNOW what is best for me. If God sometime asks me to surrender my dreams then there must be something better for me at that time, And I can rest in that fact.

This bit is an email I then received later on today---

How do you know when a dream is from God or when it's just something you've thought up yourself? The Bible tells us that God, "by his mighty power at work within us is able to do far more than we would ever dare to ask or even dream of—infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes." (Ephesians 3:20 LB)
In other words, if a dream comes from God, it will be so big in your life that you can't do it on your own.

Funny, God.

So guys-- maybe its just about talking to God about our dreams, and also dreaming BIG, because our God is BIG.

Thoughts?
