If your dream doesn’t seem impossible, then you aren’t dreaming big enough.
One of my dearest brothers, Heith has said this a few times to me. I’ve agreed with him, maybe even Amen’d a time or two. But until recently it hasn’t truly hit home.
See I want to believe that.
I sincerely do believe my God is big enough to tackle anything He lays on my heart. But most of the time, it’s me that is holding myself back from really living this out.
These last few months the Lord has revealed a lot to me. How I’ve let things in the past or things people have said to me, dictate who I am or what I try to accomplish. I’ve allowed myself to believe those fears or lies for too long.
I no longer want to live in fear. Fear of rejection. Fear of not being good enough. Fear of failing. Whatever it may be. I don’t want to live under my fears any more.
The Lord Jesus has made me unique. He has made me His. I am new. No longer am I who or what people said. I am only what He says about me. And in Him, I can do all things. He has given me very specific passions, abilities, desires, and experiences that have shaped how I am and what I love. The more I seek after Him, the more my desires align with His and the more He shows me just how and where He’s going to use me.
But it’s up to me to believe it and act. It’s up to me to give it all I have and let Him work it out.
Now is the time to put myself out there without fear, without hesitation. His plans are so much more incredible than even what I can see now, and He is excited when I want to do what He’s calling me to!
So Lord, You know the PASSIONS of my heart! You know what I dream about, pray for, desire. You are more than enough, and I will actively wait on You to move and to place me anywhere you wish! My dreams seem impossible right now, so that must mean they are just about the right size…God-size. Father take my God-sized impossible dreams and do with them as You wish! I’m giving them back to you!
