Dream You Say?

"Dreams pass into the reality of action. From the actions stems the dream again; and this interdependence produces the highest form of living."

-Anias Nin

Thank you God for the ability to dream, and to inspire others to do so. Thank you for placing people in our lives to inspire us to go and do amazing works through the Father. My prayer today being that our dreams, lived out, would be the highest testament to the glory of our God, thus giving us "the highest form of living", because we have blessed our eternal Father.

I know for most of you reading this there are certain things you wish to attain or accomplish in your lifetime. Some things might not happen, some may already have happened, but what have you thanked God for for coming to fruition? I have found that I have lacked this quality and need to remember to thank God for what He has blessed me with, for what dreams he has made into reality.

Thank you Father God for using me to impact other people. Even though my role was small, you used me to help heal a divided nation, which I know will go down in history, my name, maybe not, but my goal, along with thousands of others, helped change the coarse of history for that nation, ALL because of you.

Thank you Father God for love. For the ability to love, for the sacrifices that come with love, that reach far beyond my capacity to do so. Thank you for giving me the love I will need to share with others. Thank you for giving me someone who loves me, the way you intended. For making that man, a man of God, with your hand over him.

Thank you for your healing. Thank you that you bring all that is needed and then some to bring this family into your loving embrace. Thank you for the reminders of the bigger picture, and the healing that brings. Thank you for filling the emptiness that was left after her on a daily basis.

Thank you for forgiveness. Teach me everyday the grace that you give, unconditionally.

Maybe these things will spark what you are thankful for, but most of all, that it helps you to dream of even more of the things that God wants to bless us with. Even though I am so undeserving of all He has given, I am so excited to know He has even more for us.

So, prayer requests-

That I would not be anxious, but that patience would take it's place.

That Justin would gain some clarity on some big decisions he has coming up. And for clarity for Ben and Hannah

That God would open a door for the car situation

That's all for now folks ;) Send your prayers this way too!
