Dream for You

I was recently reading a devotional about using your imagination for God's purpose, and one of the quotes that the author said stuck out to me; "Let the size of your God determine the size of your imagination."  There reason why I liked this quote is because God is the God of the impossible, and when we start believing that what was once impossible is now possible, dreams start to expand past what anyone was though was possible.

There are also tons of examples in the Bible where God's power was used in ways no one though possible. David defeated Goliath. Moses lead God's people out of Egypt. Abraham had a son long after his wife stop being fertile. and Mary gave birth to Christ. These are all examples where God's plan was bigger than any one expected, and these people had faith to follow God in what he was saying even though it seemed impossible.

This reasoning also goes against what most of us have been taught, that we should live in what is reasonable and not dream or think to big. However, when we let God dream for us, we are able to do more than ever thought was possible, and it is not done by our own will, but by God and his power.

So this week I encourage you to take some time to ask God what his dream is for you, and to let him work in you with what he has planned.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for the power you have and the dreams that you have for each one of us. Please show me the dreams you have for me, and give me the strength to follow them. Amen.
