My dream...A Reality

I have been fighting a battle with God. And I lost. You see, over the past few years, God put an idea in my head. A wonderful idea...but not one in a million years, would actual come to reality or so I thought. I wanted this to happen deeply and was something I am very passionate about but the logistics were just too complicated to ever have it happen for real. So I ignored God's whispers and He just raised His voice! When it was on my mind during the day, I couldn't wait until I'd go to sleep. My plan was to sleep it off but God had other plans! What did God do? I started getting dreams about this exact issue, so real and so intense that I would wake up crying, night after night, week after week and couldn't shake these thoughts out of my head. I would turn on the tv and there was a show about this, I'd pick up magazines, just to open it up the arcticle I was steering from. I wasn't trying to run from anything. I am a busy mother of three, involved in two committees that I'm passionate about, and am comfortable with my life in many aspects. Could I handle this change in my life?

But I needed to follow His lead but how could this become reality?

I was limiting God.

I woke up again at night.

I told God I was ready to follow His lead.

I fell fast asleep and stayed sleeping ALL. NIGHT. LONG!!!


And I am living in peace. I feel God's arms holding me so tight since I said Yes to His will for my life.

So my dream is becoming my reality...

When God has a plan for our lives, He figures out all of the logistics doesn't he?

So happy this dream is becoming a reality!
