Get To It!

God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love and self discipline.

Timothy 1:7

As yesterday's scripture was aimed at encouraging your dreams, today's is a continuation of that encouragement.  I know that many, if not all of you, have one dream or another that lies in the back of your mind just itching for the right time to develop and mature.  I myself have a dream that I continuously think of, wishing for the right time to begin, or waiting on the confidence to get moving.  I won't sit here and tell you to start today but I want you to evaluate why you haven't begun.  It may just be God's timing and we all know that waiting on Him is so very important.  But if God has already spoken to you time and again.  If He has given you encouragement and opened doors of opportunity, but you are still dreaming, maybe it is fear holding you back.    

God didn't make us to be scared to try new things.  He gives us confidence and strength to be extraordinary in an ordinary world.  His love should be enough to send us to the highest mountains and the craziest places because in Him we are strong and confident.  We shouldn't worry what others will say.  In Him we don't fear rejection or failure, but we embrace His power that surges through our body.  If our dreams never take flight, if we never get them off the ground, then how will we ever experience how great God's work in us can truly be?  That power gives us confidence and brings wisdom and self discipline in an unfamiliar place, but a freedom and newfound faith that you don't want to miss out on!  We are able to do the impossible with God's help, but so many of us are too scared to step out, scared to fail and scared of the big task and work at hand.   Stand in awe of the power of Jesus Christ and of the things possible through Him!  Stop fearing the unknown and step out to pursue the dreams that He has laid on your heart.  Stop talking and wishing but make your dreams reality!  We will be praying for you ;)
