Making dreams come true.

I think everybody has a dream, an end goal or purpose that they eventually want to get to. This is kind of like their ideal life that they want to live, most people would dream or imagine it. What kind of job they will have, what kind of house they will live in and who they will marry.

I think that few people think about making their dreams come true.

For me I have a God dream, it's something that I believe God wants me to do with my life, something he spoke to me about more clearly then anything else he has ever said (big call I know!)  At first it was just something that I imagined in my mind and due to my extensive imagination, it was in detail as if I had played it out like a movie over and over again and yes I wanted it to happen but did not really believe it would, therefore not really doing anything to move forward with it. But I couldn't ignore the fact that I could see it so clearly, for years I could imagine what it would be like to the detail and began to believe that it would happen one day.
 Then something Changed in me, one day as I was casually Dreaming about my Far away future and  What I would do for God, I felt God say that this Dream is for Now, Not one day when....And as if I realised that I had everything I need in me to do this now, I felt ready, I felt capable.When "Now" turned into months and then a year I grew frustrated at God for not making this happen.
In fact the opposite happened and I seemed so much further away and when I got closer something would happen again and I'd ask God "When are you going to make me Dream come True?" and then.........
He asked me the Same thing......

How Deep his Love really is.

Tonight I cannot stop thinking about this song, I have heard it before but yesterday I must have just realised the Reality of the words. 
I could go through it word for word and explain why each verse means so much, but I think it needs individual revelation to have meaning.
So tonight I am still thinking about the reality of what he did for me and how great the price must have been for him, I realized that he actually felt pain for me, He actually chose the cross for me, chose me over himself and exchanged his life for my own and his very last breath was what brought me the freedom that I honestly take for granted most days.

I hope as you read it the words remind you just How deep the father Love for us really is....



How deep the Father's love for us 
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
And make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
Bring many sons to glory
Behold the man upon the cross
My sin upon His shoulder
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
Album- Restoration
