Yes! Our biggest dream should always be a deeper relationship with the Lord. It’s easy to lose track of that, but it truly is the most important part!

I’ve begun praying Jesus’s words early and often to remind myself that my dreams need to be formed around His kingdom, His will. I get off course SO easily, imagining that it’s all about me.

So often you hear the words the dream shattered. I like your talk about dream shifting and the focus on the Dreammaker. What a delightful name for God. I need to take that into my journal and prayers. Thanks, Lisa!!

“The biggest dream is a deeper relationship with my Maker.” Amen! Thank you, Lisa, for reminding me that absolutely nothing can stop that dream. You have encouraged my heart today as I realize I’ve been too often sitting discouraged in a pile of those broken dreams instead of rejoicing in the biggest dream that will never, ever be crushed. Love and blessings to you!

This is something that all of us can relate to. I mean who doesn’t have dreams?

I thank God for the dreams I’ve realized… and also for the ones He’s spared me from. Grace happens even when we don’t feel like it is.

This is so true, Lisa. The dreams I had as a child changed by the time I was a teenager, then a college student, then a young mother, and so on. In some ways, aging helps narrow down the choices–there are some things I can’t do any more. And it’s funny, I don’t regret some of the dreams that never came to fruition. I realize God knew me better than I knew myself, and those would never have worked. A couple still cause a pang of regret or sadness, but I know God has His reasons. Just this morning I was arrested by the phrase in 2 Corinthians 4:8: “perplexed, but not driven to despair.” I don’t know, maybe a post of perplexities is brewing. 🙂

God will always be the one Dreammaker we can always count on. Coincidentally, in my next blog post, I touch on aging, and the things I can no longer think about doing, but there is so much I, and you, can still accomplish with God’s help.
Blessings, Lisa!

Good post, Lisa. We all have changed/shifted our dreams a bit but the Dreamgiver is faithful to give us the best ones. My husband and I are having yet another dream come to fruition before the year is over. We have purchased a Tiny House and moving onto a lake in SC. So how about that? One is never too old to dream.

Just like it says in the Bible; when we delight ourselves in the Lord, He would give us the desires of our hearts, because then, our desires would be in line with His will for us. Thanks for sharing, Lisa. Many blessings to you!
