God has a dream for your life

" I will be your God through all your lifetime, yes, even when your hair is white with age." - Isaiah 46:4
Do you know in the deepest place in your heart that you are loved? I pray that you do. And I also pray that you understand that God never takes his eyes off of you, that you are not alone. I pray that you will grasp hold of the truth that because you are God's daughter/son, anything is possible!
I believe with all of my heart that God has a dream for your life that is far greater than any you could dream for yourself. When God looks at you, he sees a woman/man whom he is passionately loves. That love compelled him to give his Son to redeem you from the nightmare of life spent apart from him. No matter whether any of your smaller dreams are realized on this earth, God has an amazing dream for your life that nothing and no one can touch. God's dream for YOU outweighs every other dream in your life.
And remember, each one of us is given only one life. Your days on earth are not a dress rehearsal so that you can come back and try again. Every life counts. Your life counts. Heaven is watching to see what you will do with the life you have been given.
Sheila Walsh
Sometimes I forget that my dreams for what I want to do with my life are far less than anything I can imagine for what God has planned for my life. I will have conversations with my boyfriend or with my family, friends, whoever- & I talk about what I WANT... not what I think God has planned for me. I forget about the depth of God's love for me. I forget that I am his child who he loves. He sent his Son to die for me- to take my place.
I am praying that God will open my eyes, to see what He has planned for me. I know there is WAY more than I could dream of & I want to see what he has created me for. I want to stop "just making" it through the day. Our days are numbered, some have more than others. I want to live for the Day God has given me. I pray that these are your desires as well. Our work lives, home lives, & love lives should every day reflect the Creator & our drive should be to live in the moment and to live for Christ in every moment!
