Do you have any dreams or passions in life ? Do they seem really out there, do they look like they're unattainable, do you not know where to begin ? I do too. I have dreams and passions that actually seems scary because there's been some opposition in my life that even seem to go against them or they almost seem impossible . Good news though, if you have dreams and passions they were placed with in you from the creator himself ! All things are possible with Him who strengthens you. If they seem unattainable ,far-fetched, scary then you're in the right place because God chose to do this life with you not apart from you. If your dreams and passions aren't big enough ( downright scary or seemingly impossible) then they probably aren't from God or part of your calling . Deep calls into deep. He is our strength to make things possible, He helps you to fly with wings like eagles, and He chose to live inside of you to be your helper. He equips and qualify those who even believe that they are not. He calls you chosen, holy, righteous, blameless, He has set you in high places, you are an heir to his throne. You are all wrapped up in Him and He is all wrapped up in you; lean on Him and not on your own understanding. He loves relationship with you. Your dreams are big because it causes you to look outside of yourself alone to accomplish! The bigger the dream the more you need Him. You are His dwelling place, let Him guide you in all your ways and acknowledge Him. Some people always quote a phrase : "God will not give you more than you can handle". That is not scriptural nor is it true. Of course He gives us more than what we think about ourselves as being able to handle, endure or to be qualified. People get through things all the time they never originally thought that they could. God knows us better than we do, He created and fashioned and purposed you! God is the one who lifts us up from the miry clay and sets us up on His rock. He is the one who seated you in heavenly places and gave you dual citizenship while you're here on earth. He is the one who takes what seems impossible and makes them possible. He is a very jealous God who wants you to want and need Him. He wants to show you His glory through you. He loves His child. Let Him be your helper and strength.
Thinking of the promise given to Abram... Imagine looking at all those stars... Almost 100 years old, feeling the weight of age, youth and vitality stripped from your body... The glaring awareness of impossibility... The screeching in your ears of time past by... The seeds that had been building yet never planted and now regret and disappointment has replaced the seeds that once held the hope life...you remind your creator how you're childless and there is no heir to your estate as your time is drawing near...and Now picture the sky full of those stars and never being able to count them all and God assuring you that your offspring will be as numerous as there are stars... The bible says Abram believed Him! Wow! Just like that, despite the reality that had been staring him in the face, the harsh circumstance he was in... Abraham just believed Him. The story continues... Abram asks "how will I know this will happen"? God makes a covenant with him. Yea...
