ACTS 2:17

I WILL GIVE MY SPIRIT TO EVERYONE.YOUR YOUNG MEN WILL SEE VISIONS AND YOUR OLD MEN WILL HAVE DREAMS.

Make time to dream 

Every couple of months, I take stock of my life. Before I start declaring new goals and plans, I allow time to simply think and meditate. Someone once said, "The thoughts that come unsought and drop into the mind, are commonly the most valuable." What is it that you have been thinking about? What is that recurring dream that keeps coming back time and time again? One day H.C. Booth was sitting in a rocker watching the sunset. Living in the Midwest he was also watching the dust blow. As he contemplated the scene he began to wonder, "What if we could reverse the wind so that it sucks dust instead of blowing it? Later that year he invented the vacuum cleaner! God said, "I will give my spirit to everyone [not just a selected few!]...Your young men will see visions and your old men will have dreams." Can you believe that? Regardless of your age, God's spirit can birth in your heart a dream, a vision of "what can be." Stop putting yourself down, thinking "others are more worthy and more qualified than me." You may be flawed and limited, but the God who lives and works in you is not! Don't allow fear to make you settle for less than the life God intends you to live. So start dreaming and don't stop!

Prayer 

Eternal God, thank you for being able to do more than all we could ever ask or imagine. To Him we give glory.

Thought for the day 

God is able to make a way out of no way.
