Don't Give Up On Your Dreams!

Something to think about - 


  What are your dreams? Your deep down in the depths of your heart burning with desire dreams? That feeling you get when you are thinking about living that dream in your heart and it almost takes your breath away...you feel your adrenaline start to pump!! I ask you to please not give up on achieving those dreams! They were put in your heart for a reason. Do everything you can to achieve them! Do not accept defeat and give up! Those who acheieve their dreams put the work in and don't let failure stop them! Put determination in your dreams and take one step at a time. You WILL be pushed out of your comfort zone so expect that! You WILL run into the enemy trying to tell you you can't achieve those dreams! Those dreams are too big! You aren't good enough! Give up already it's too hard and impossible! DON'T LISTEN TO THOSE LIES!! NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD! Give those dreams to God and watch Him open doors you never thought could be open! Watch Him divinely bring the right people in your life to help propel you forward into accomplishing that dream! Watch opportunities present themselves where you KNOW there was no way that could have happened if it weren't for God! STEP OUT IN FAITH and see your dreams begin to unfold!

  Maybe you've went your whole life being less than who you knew you could be. Maybe you accepted defeat and gave up on pursuing what you know deep down you want to do. Maybe it seems intimidating and you don't see how you can accomplish it. It doesn't matter if your dreams requires money you don't have, knowledge you dont think you have, even time you don't see yourself being able to make for that dream. You don't have to see the HOW when God is in control! When you give your life and dreams to God and you put your faith into knowing He knows what He is doing...all the obstacles will be taken care of in His time! So come on people! Don't let the enemy stomp on those dreams you've had in your heart! Look to God to bring them to pass! Don't give up! Don't accept defeat! Let God mold and shape and prepare you to walk into your dream! It's never too late when God is behind it all! 


May God richly bless you all! :) :)

Luke 1:37

37. For with God nothing is ever impossible and no word from God shall be without power or impossible of fulfillment. 

Trials Are Meant To Grow Us, Not Destroy Us

"To reach up for the new, you must let go of the old. What is behind you is not nearly as important as what lies in front of you. Everything you've been through was preparation for where you are right now. Disappointments, challenges, and failures were not meant to destroy you. They were meant to strengthen you, to build your character, to give you the fortitude to accomplish your God-given destiny" - Joel Osteen - From His Book "It's Your Time"

  The above statement by Pastor Joel is so true and needed to be realized and taken root in everyone's heart. I also like the phrase "You may not be able to help what circumstances come your way, but you can help how you respond to them." Too many people become bitter and angry at or go as far as to bad mouth their circumstances or the people that have wronged them. (we are all guilty of that sadly). We too quickly jump to the wrong conclusion about our circumstances and begin thinking the worst...taking it to a level of self pity and even depression. It's easy for us to automatically take on a negative thinking attitude when trials come our way. If only we could truly see things from God's perspective. You see, God sees the big picture while our view is extremely limited. I realize it isn't the easiest thing to look to all things with a positive attitude, but if we can take it one day at a time and look to God for our strength, we can renew our mind and transform our thinking.  We can take on the day with a "I'm not going to let anything ruin me or my day" attitude and leave everything in God's hands. We need to trust God and know there is a reason for all we go through and it is to be used for our good! Not to destroy us!


Consider and meditate on the following scripture ...
James 1:2-4 AMP
2. Consider it wholly joyful, my brethren, whenever you are enveloped in or encounter trials of any sort or fall into various temptations.
3. Be assured and understand that the trial and proving of your faith bring out endurance and steadfastness and patience.
4. But let endurance and steadfastness and patience have full play and do a thorough work, so that you may be [people] perfectly and fully developed [with no defects], lacking in nothing.

The Lord does know what He is doing :) ♥ God bless you all!
