Last night I had the most wonderful dream: I had finished The Legacy! All had to do was find someone to edit and publish it.
And then I woke up and remembered I was not in fact on the verge of finishing my book, but in reality was only on chapter three...
It was depressing.
But it made me think: how many times does that happen to us? Not specifically the whole yes-I've-finally-finished-my-novel thing but rather the part where we dream and dream and expect our dreams to be telling us the truth when in fact our dreams are farther off then we think (I don't say impossible because "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me").
And then God reminded me: "For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
So maybe I'm still on chapter three and writing at a pace that will help me get published sometime in my twenties, but maybe - just maybe - God knows what he's doing with my life and I'll get to have that yes-I've-finally-finished-my-novel party just at the right time. His time.
Now (because you know I just have to) it's time for the whole readers-participation-of-the-day thing: What is your dream that seems impossible right now? How do you see God working on it?
Happy Wednesday guys (err gals) :)
