Jump-Start Your Dreams What is the dream that Gods placed in your heart?Im not asking if you have one, I already know its there because God gives all of us dreams. Ive seen people do all kinds of things to their dreams. Some people bury them so deep in their hearts in order to protect them from the criticism of others. Some people set them out of sight so they dont have to think about them anymore. And some people finally just give up on their dreams because it hurts too much to hold on. If your dream needs a jump-start, there are two things I want you to remember. First, you need to get a vision thats clear. And second, you must keep your vision in front of you at all times. But having a vision doesnt mean that it will instantly appear. Gods as interested in the process of vision as He is in the end result. The apostle Paul said in Philippians 4:11-13 that he had learned how to be content and satisfied to the point where he was not disturbed by whatever state he was in. In other words, he never allowed himself to get upset with where he was at the moment, he was always looking forward to where he could be. That means you, like Paul, need to find a balance between contentment and ambition. Heres the key: Learn to enjoy where you are on the way to where youre going. When you have a dream or a vision, you have to keep it in front of you. If it helps, write it down. And remember, God will help you live the dream Hes given you, step-by-step, one day at a time. Prayer Starter: Jesus, even though I dont always feel like it and life tries to get me to quit, I believe You have a great plan for my life. I choose to trust You to help me live the dream Youve given me more than I trust my circumstances. Proverbs 29:23 NIV Pride brings a person low, but the lowly in spirit gain honor.
