I Almost Didn’t Pursue My Dream!
You do have a Dream. It’s part of what it means to be human, created in the image of God. You don’t have to invent your Dream. Like the color of your eyes or your one-of-a-kind smile, your Big Dream was planted in you before you were born.
The psalmist David wrote that all the days of his life had been “fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.” Your Dream is unique and important. You have been handcrafted by God to accomplish a part of His Big Dream for the world.
How?
Your Big Dream is meant to fulfill a Big Need he cares deeply about. The reason you’re here is to take a part of His Dream from Point A to Point B. No one else can do it quite like you. Your Dream is yours to act on. God is waiting for you to value His gift of your Dream enough to live it. He will not force you to choose. Nor will he “make it happen” for you.
You must choose.
You must act.
Paul’s amazingly productive life was shaped by a single, driving commitment— to “lay hold” of that for which God had laid hold of him. Your Big Dream is what God has laid hold of you to do. And fortunately, it’s never too late to act on your Dream!
