Dear Discouraged Dreamer
Dear Discouraged Dreamer,
Living out your dreams is hard. That’s probably why it’s called a dream. But I know God has put that gut-burning, soul-yearning dream inside of you, and He’s not going to let you down. It might not look how you thought it would look. It might not happen when you thought it would happen. It might not be what you thought it would be, but nothing will stop God’s plan for you. That thing you so desperately want to do or happen or be, God knows about it. There’s probably a good chance he’s gifted you for it, and there’s an even better chance it’s not going how you thought it would go. God’s plans are different than our own plans, but they’re also better. God knows. He knows what he uniquely created you to be. He knows your gifts, your passions, your desires. He made you after all. Your job is to take his hand and let him lead you down his path one step at a time. I can’t promise what’s at the end. But I know it’s for your good and others’ good. And the world’s good. Your dream isn’t just for you, and maybe that’s what pains you so much. You want to give the world something, be something, reach something to ultimately help others. God hears you. He’s leading you. Your job is to follow and not give up. Keep stepping, dreamer. You can only go forward from here.
Love,
Jen

Dear Jenna,
Thanks for sharing! I am always in pursuit of Gods plan, Who, what, when, where and why. At least in my mind I tend to think that way when crossing life daily railroad tracks.
I alwayss find condorting in his words, which are everlasting and fulfilling, willing and able to build, teach and perfect us in his Love.
(Isaiah 55:11) 1so is my word that goes out from my mouth:it will not return to me empty,but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
