    Dreams

    Have you ever wondered if you are truly making a difference.  Last year around this time i was dating a guy who i thought i was going to be with the rest of my life well that was far from the truth i broke it off because of the fact two weeks before my prom my dad questioned him on whether he really loved me or not,  and when the man that you have started making plans with for the future says he doesn't know there is definitely problems.  Right then i wondered what was my purpose besides maybe going to college.  I love my church and my family and friends but really was there anything else out there for me.  Finally after my twin niece and nephew were born i really knew what i wanted out of life it was definitely children.  Now this may sound outrageous to many of you but my dad has always said don't let anyone talk you out of your dreams.  Which is totally true and i have been made fun of because of this dream.  I want to have twenty-seven children now some of you are saying she doesn't have any kids and has no idea what she would be getting into.  Which is some-what true but i know that God would not have given me that dream if he didn't want me to take that dream and run with it.  Now i really don't think that i personally will have all of those myself.  I am definitely going to adopt and then i will most definitely think of all the children i will teach.  I have had this dream since i was ten years old.  I am a personal that has never cared what other people say about me because of the fact i know that i am doing it unto God.  I have always wanted a purposeful life and until the day i die i will have the same dream.  Currently the guy that i had dated for four years still goes to our church and i have had to see him every time we have church which could have a definite flip if i would allow it but somehow i haven't said anything impulsive to him lately.  Which is very strange for me because i usually act on impulse and let things fly when i speak my mind.  Sometimes good sometimes bad.  I know that i shouldn't let something like that get to me but when you think your gonna marry a guy and then puff blows up in your face it kind of really burns.  Who knows if this is making sense of anyone but it really  helps to just write it out. 
    Thanks for reading

    Idea [I] Re: Dreams

    Allow The Father God to pick the man you marry by His principals set in His Word,He will never steer you wrong and you can save a lifetime of heartache and mistakes.The man He picks for you will have the mind of Christ and you will be much happier than if you pick someone without the Fathers consent! Shalom

    I agree with roseuprise! Don't settle for just anyone. Don't lower your standards. God has the right person for you. If at anytime you sense the Lord is giving you red flags....leave that guy alone. What are red flags? They are warnings. Like this guy is not living up with my word in this area. Watch how the guy deals with things. Is he responsible with his money? Does he display bad anger towards other people? (if so, one day he will turn that anger on you, though you'd like to think different)  Does his parents treat you nicely? If they do, then most likely they will after marriage. If not, then it could only get worse.  Does this guy respect you and God's word concerning you? If not, he won't later.  Does this guy hide things? Also, you never want to jump in a marriage with a new baby christian. Trust God, He knows who you need. He knows the man out there that will treat you right. There are men out there that like having alot of children. Whatever you do, trust God with your life. He will NEVER lead you the wrong way. Always remember that only God can love you the way you should be loved, so trust Him before all else!!!  Oh and make sure you both  have counseling with your pastor , this can bring out things you'd be shy to ask and if there are any warning signs you missed, they can come out in the counseling and it will save you a life of heartache!!!!!!!!

    Heather, that is a wonderful dream to run with but sometimes when you have a God dream it is best not to share it with anyone, trust me i have learned just look what happened to Joseph when he told his dreams, keep it precious to you and then trust God to bring the right man into your life who knows might have had the same dream lol, funny but that is how the Lord works. Trust Him and don't be in a hurry ok cause the Lord never is!
    Little Children, Love One Another....... If it be done it is enough....It is a command of our Lord

    Re: Dreams

    God makes Dreams Come True, keep following Him and like your Dad says "Don't let anyone talk you out of your dreams" One thing I learned too about sharing my dreams is that we do have to be careful who we share them with, not everybody will leap for joy with us, in fact some may try to talk you out of it,
    See Yourself teaching 27 children, weather they be 27 spiritual children that you gave birth to by leading them to the Lord and having a classroom of 27 children... your dream is also to teach  right?  
    Jesus is the Dream maker and Dream Fulfiller... look to/for Him not to/for a man

    Pray for this guy that you still love and rebuke the spirit of fear off him. He's afraid and needs God to grow and stretch him. Be patient and wait on God. Ask the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, to minister to your heart during this waiting period.
