Before I start I need to be transparent first.I am sitting in a conference room, with the sun gleaming in, and my mind is many places. As I sit here I am concerned about Taylor and her future, I am concerned about my aging parents and their health, I am unhappy in my current job , and I wonder if I will ever run my own business, I am nursing a broken heart and I wonder if I will ever fall in love and meet my future husband, and so much more inside this head of mine. But as I think these things, an excitement overcomes me, and all I hear in my spirit "is your dreams will come true in my time".
I then realize that there is so much to my future, Taylor is an amazing child and she will be just fine, my parents, even though they have had some major health issues they are still here living and able to enjoy their children, and grandchildren. The job, even though it's not the planned job it's a blessed job. The broken heart will heal, and I will conquer all. Most important I have wonderful people who surround me with so much love, encouragement and who believe in me that I know I am a Blessed Woman!
So as I do every week, I beseech God on what to write and as I did "Dreams" came to my spirit. Even thought I have had these worries and concerns, all this week I have been full of excitement, I am full of so many ideas and things I want to do on this journey. For the last couple of weeks God has allowed me to spend time with people who are pursuing their dreams and are living the true entrepreneur life. He has also allowed me to have very great conversations with others who want to live their dreams, but are not quite sure what the dream might be or how to even start.
I have so many things I am planning to accomplish by the end of 2011, and they are what I was purposed to do on this journey. My mind is constantly racing that I cannot even get a good night sleep anymore. I am constantly writing new things or adding to existing things in my "Dream Journal". So you are wondering what is this "Dream Journal" it's a journal full of my thoughts, ideas, business ventures, and personal goals
I believe so many of us have stopped dreaming and gave up hope, and decided that life is what it is and I will just live this life. Well, you can never give up on your dreams, you have to believe that God allowed you to vision these dreams for a purpose. Dreams give us permission to write out our destiny, and then to pursue it.
I say to you today do not stop dreaming, believe that your dreams can come true, in God's timing and in his will. One of my dreams is to build a business encouraging others into their destiny, I believe God has given me a gift of encouraging, empowering and lifting others to believe that they can live this life on purpose and in purpose. So I say to you start a "Dream Journal" if you have not already, and write down these dreams, and sit back and watch God work your dreams.
I want to help some of you start your "Dream Journal" so the first 5 people that email me one of their dream stories, I will mail you a "Dream Journal". Email me at mechell@incouragements.com
Dreams are necessary to life.
