My dreams used to reside sitting on a shelf, gathering dust. Now, I've dusted them off and I'm keeping a close eye on them. I'm actively pursuing them, too. I believe God gives us our heart's desires, as He promised, though it may not be at the time we want them. Sometimes there's a delay. Sometimes it seems like our prayers for our dreams to come true wind up hitting the Stratosphere and lingering there for a very long time.
But lately, I've felt the pull of my dreams grow stronger and I believe some are about to come true.
It's up to us to keep our dreams and hopes alive, even when they are deferred for a time. It's also up to us to move forward toward finalizing those dreams - to act, and believe that we'll reach them.
