Your Dreams Fall Apart

Sometimes a dream falls apart and falters because of who you’re with, who is around you, and who is in your circle.

Even our family members and friends can be a drain and a detriment to what we’re building.  In Genesis 12:1, the Lord said to Abraham. “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you.”  Sometimes, the blessings that God wants to give you aren’t for those who are in your current situation.

Some people shouldn’t even be in the room when you discuss your plans.  Their negative energy, doubts, and criticism don’t nurture your dream.  Everyone can’t be a part of building your dream.  Some people have no vision. Some people are too afraid to dream.  Dream building can get messy and can be tedious.  Most times it’s not an overnight process.  It takes time and everyone doesn’t have enough faith and patience to see it through with you.

Sometimes you’ll find that the people in your life have no problem with dreaming, unless it’s you.  Anybody off the street can dream. Famous people can dream, but not you.  And if they do give you permission to dream, they don’t think you should be dreaming so big.  Leave those big dreams for the really important people.  Why don’t you bite off something a bit more manageable?  Just be more realistic.

When you’re dreaming, you need people who have vision and courage.  You need people who know that it’s okay to dare to dream. You need people who believe in possibilities, who can look past now, and see something beautiful on the horizon.

I’ve said it and heard it said many times. Your dream has no deadline.  I don’t care if you’re 30, 40 or 50 years old. Unless you hear the Lord say no- then keep marching.  Keep believing.  Keep preparing.  Keep putting forth effort toward your goals.

And always stay on the lookout for anyone who seems to pose a threat to what you’re trying to accomplish.  Ask the Lord to show you who should be in your life and who you should let go.  When the Lord shows you what you need to see, don’t be afraid. Step out in faith with Christ and you’ll be just fine.  The Lord knows best and wants what’s best for you.  So, if He tells you it isn’t a good idea for certain people to tag along on your journey, believe Him and be obedient. 

Remember, I believe in you because I believe in who made you.

The Road You're Traveling

The road you’re traveling right now may be rough and have more detours than you believe one person can handle. The Lord will reward your faithfulness and strength.  Just keep the faith.  Stay dedicated to your assignment.  Trust the Lord to continue your progress.

Everyone won’t understand your decision to keep moving in the same direction.  People have ideas about how long is too long to stay engaged in one certain area.  When most people don’t see huge “measurable” amounts of success, they tend to give up.  Oftentimes, people base their level of commitment to a goal on external influences.  When they realize that others see no value in their idea, they sadly accept that as truth.  But not us.  We know how it feels to have a “yes” from the Lord take root and bloom in our hearts.

There may be times when people will fight against your process, by trying to discourage you.  They may even remind you of how little time there’s left to really make anything happen.  They may advise you to stay on the safe path and avoid anything new and uncertain. Whenever you’re feeling blah and you need someone to give you encouraging words, you may find yourself alone. You may even have to celebrate your own milestones and pat yourself on the back.

It’s all right though.  You have to know deep down inside that there’s just no other road for you to take.  The consuming fire that God has set in you is way too strong for you to turn back now.  The excitement you feel when you allow yourself to imagine the dream already being yours is too thrilling to ignore.  Walking away now and staying bound to status quo just makes no sense to you.

Reject any fear and doubt that tries to creep into the tight spaces in your mind.  Fear doesn’t pay any rent or contribute to your well-being in any way.  So, why let it stay?  Shield your heart from the noise desperately trying to pierce it.  Pray and ask the Lord to renew your mind every day and to let your dream pulsate like soothing music in your veins.

Now is the time to be braver than ever.  Now is the time for your purpose to escort you into tomorrow.  Now is the time to push comfort and complacency back. If necessary, use the biggest stick you’ve got.  Do whatever you have to do to hold on for dear life to your heart’s desire.  Now is the time to ignore dream killers.  Now is the time to meditate on everything you can gain– not your possible losses.  Now is the time to wake up every morning with victory on your mind.  Now is the time to believe you can make it, to know that this is what you were meant to do.  Now is the time to find your joy and stamp it across your heart.

Do it now.  Don’t waste your time trying to get everyone on board.  The permission or participation of others is not required.  Use every drop of energy to advance your dream.  Believing in yourself is a great idea.  Your spirit is unbreakable.  Every hurdle is conquerable.  The road may have bumps, but there are no walls.  There are no walls to box you in.  There are no walls to block your view.  You’re in God’s country now.  Your dream is achievable.  I’m hoping and praying for you.  Let’s go!
