“It takes a lot of courage to show your dreams to someone else.”
~ Erma Bombech ~

Dreams are given to us by God for the purpose for fulfilling destinies. It is sometimes difficult to share your dreams with others because it may make you appear venerable or wacky to say the least.

God usually does not give us dreams that are easy to accomplish. Often times they are beyond our wildest dreams. That’s because God’s thoughts are not are thoughts and His ways are not our ways. So when we go to share the dreams with someone else we may appear as though we actually are not and others may think we have lost our mind.

For me it is difficult because it is hard for others to see me as the woman I am now. They are so busy focusing on the woman I used to be. However, I am not the same and I am now walking in those dreams. So I don’t share, but with a select few, who have the mind-set that I now do and who understand the mysterious yet glorious ways of God.

If I were to encourage another to live the dream and yes to share it as well, I would have to quote Romans 8:1 as words to hold on to.

“There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”

It is what I use when others look at me and wonder why God would want to use me in such a mighty way. Funny thing, I could look at them the same way because He wants to use them as well. The only difference is that I have opened myself up to the move of God in my life and I see the reason for every dream He has given me. I may not understand it, but I know that it is for the glory of God and for His good pleasure.
