Dream Start Pt.3

The reason why you need to say something about your dream...

I've carried a dream in my heart for 11 years now, it's weathered plenty of storms, at some points seemed to die and has gone through a lot of testing. As I look back through time, the day my dream actually took off from the starting line was the day I was willing to make my dream known, not just to one person but to many. Something happens in the heart of an individual that can share something they are destined to fail in without God. YES my dream is that big, and without God I'm done, and so are you, but those are the dreams that God wants us to have.

If you can attempt your dream without God it did not come from Him, blame it on the pizza, the cookies or an inspiring late night movie. The dreams that God has for our lives always outlive us long after we are gone.

Everything you've gone through, everything you are today, your passions, your experiences, your heart breaks, your victories, everything, has led you to the moment you are at right now. The day I made my dream known, to plant a church in Hawaii, something activated in my life. I've experienced so much in the last few years from job promotions, incredible responsibilities, leadership opportunities, leadership challenges, new grace, a deeper understanding of God, my faith has been stretched, and so much more. God was growing my character to fit the dream. I feel like I've lived life more in the last few years than I've ever lived before and it all started when I acknowledged God's plan, God's call and God's dream in my heart and I made that known. Yes I was scared to share my dream, taken my brunt of criticism, heard the question "are you sure?" Even been asked "is that God or is that just you?"

Life changes when you acknowledge and speak out what God has placed in your heart to do; your dream takes on legs and an incredible journey will unfold. I'm convinced that the life I've experienced in the last few years and the chapter that is getting ready to unfold would not have taken place at all if I had not said something. Do you see now why speaking your dream out loud is so important? Isn't that they way the world was created "...And God said, let there be..." What do you want God to create out of your life? Are you willing to share it? I'm going to give you the opportunity in my final post to take some incredible faith steps, again I'll setup the platform, I've been doing so all week, you just need to show up. Get ready!
