Hey you, yes YOU.
You who have a dream.
A dream that started as a mere whisper.
A dream that seems so out of reach that you dare not speak of it for fear that others will confirm that yes, you are indeed crazy for ever dreaming it up.
You have a dream that seems impossible and yet you have to believe that it wouldn’t have been placed in your heart unless there was at least a chance…just a chance…that it might actually come true. But you are afraid. Afraid that it will never come true.
And yes, even sometimes afraid that it will.
You see others having their dreams come true and you fight feeling defeated before you’ve even begun because there is no way you are in the same league as THEM so how could your little dream ever take flight?
Sometimes you allow that flat out lie to take root in your heart and tempt you to give up on that dream without ever trying.
But, what if you didn’t believe that lie?
What if you took your dream and laid it at God’s feet?
What might happen when your dream and God’s will collide? Think of all of the possibilities of what could transpire if you prayed for God to align the desires of your heart with His desires for you.
And then, what if you just started?
Started working.
Started pursuing.
Started talking.
Started planning.
Started dreaming even bigger.
Started putting yourself out there.
Started allowing God to close some doors and open other ones. Started being humbled by the setbacks and forks in the road but not thwarted by them. Started trusting that “He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it.”
Can you guess what might happen? We can!
Because that’s what we’ve done.
And soon we will share with you about our dream coming true.
Very, very soon. We promise! 😉
Thank you for the beautiful reminder to lay it all at God’s feet. Look forward to hearing about your dream coming true. Have a blessed week. 🙂
Just what I needed to hear this morning!
I love this ladies and I can’t wait to hear more!!! XXOO

Love this! I’m learning so much this year about trusting God enough to share my biggest dreams and desires. I’ve enjoyed reading your blog since I found it a few days ago and am excited to see what’s to come!
Oh my goodness, I think God just spoke to me through your message. I so needed to hear these words. I too have a dream that I have just recently begun to pursue and I have been thwarted with self doubt and fear. Thank you for the gentle reminder to lay it all at God’s feet. Have a blessed day!
I’m so glad that my words met you at the right time Karen! Blessings!
your post strikes a chord in me today that I have been reeling with…I have dreams that I have never shared with anyone, some days not even myself…I know it’s time to voice them, but am I too old…not capable…afraid is a good way to explain how I’m feeling…and it’s so time to let that go…
Cheryl I truly believe that when a dream has been placed in our hearts it’s for a reason and that only fear is what keeps us from pursuing them! I pray you begin voicing those dreams even if only to yourself and that you will have courage to move through the doors as the open. 🙂
As always, your words resonate deep inside me. I can’t wait until you share your dream come true!
Thank you Julie! So glad they resonated with you!
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing 🙂
I so needed to hear or read this thank you.
Thank you
