A Dream Finally Came True


A seven year old chubby girl with crooked teeth.  She always wore a smile and carried laughter wherever she went.  She enjoyed bright colors and the fragrance of fresh flowers.  She was always one of big dreams.  The vivid images of being on stage encouraging people, her face on the cover of a magazine and the title New York Times Bestselling Author was one that always stuck in her mind. 

One problem was she never fit in with her peers or family members.  She was always the odd one out.  She was often teased and ridicule.  She gave her all to everyone she came into contact with.  But was often the one cast out.  She developed a rejection mindset.  It interfered with all of her relationships.  As she grow older she found herself not about to develop close relationships.  She always had a hidden fear of being rejected.  So she hid behind a protective shell. To protect her heart.  Everytime she opened her heart someone broke her. 



So now her dreams evolve into learning to love again. Learning to trust again.  She settles for a job to make ends meet.  But there is a tug that just wont allow her to be comfortable.  She realizes she was born to write, called to create and wounded to heal.  The vision she had as a seven year is God’s plan for her life.  Every hurt, every disappointment was a roadmap to her destiny.  The dream will come true but first it had to come true within her. 



The dream finally came true in her heart.

Day 3: Distracted

As she continues to grow closer in her relationship with God; distractions come.  Financial distractions, past relationship distractions, former business partnership distractions; so at times she vacillates between the perfect will of God that is uncomfortable at the moment or her will that brings a temporary comfort.  She wonders if the perfect will of God is really worth all of this trouble.  Then she experiences a calmness, a sense of peace that she is on the right track. Despite the temporary benefits of the life she created for herself; she never felt this peace before surrendering her will to God.  So she dries her eyes, get up and continue to walk the path God has laid before her.    

Day 2: Frustrated

As she surrenders to destiny, she becomes frustrated because she is starting over without a plan. She has always had a plan. In this moment she remembers God has a plan. So she continues to let go of her will in order to see the life God intended for her to unfold.

Day 1: Search Within

After searching and searching, running from purpose; She realizes that everything she was looking for was in her. God. She finally comes to the end of herself and surrenders to her destiny!
