"You can never waste time if you invest in what God has placed inside your heart."

drops on a very dry and parched land. It was as if I were a little girl trapped in a cage and suddenly I was released and allowed to become free for the very first time. I was so excited to know that I could actually live the life of my dreams. I didn’t need to limit myself, but instead see myself the way God sees me, that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

I can dream, dream, dream because it is God who placed His desires in my heart and He wants me to walk and live them out! Yes! If I can dream it, I can be it! I can change and impact lives around me. I can play music and start a band, I can write novels and stories for children to enjoy. I can become an entrepreneur and start my own designer business. I can serve in my community by being a voice to the voiceless, hurt, broken and abused. I can get married to a godly man who loves Jesus more than he loves me. Oh yeah! I am following my dreams!

Jeremiah 29:11 says.

“I know the plans I have in mind for you, declares the Lord; they are plans for peace, not disaster, to give you a future filled with hope.”

God wants the best for us and a future filled with hope. He wants godly girls all over the world to pursue His kingdom and righteousness first and all things you dream about will be added. We need to align our dreams with His purpose. Fear should be replaced with courage, unbelief with faith, and silence with action and finally emptiness with purpose. With God nothing is impossible; therefore follow your dreams.
