Have you noticed that after the basic plan of education (i.e., high school, college, and graduate school) that the majority of people do not continue to read, grow, and learn new things?
In many cases we find ourselves doing the same things we’ve always done believing that everything we hoped and dreamed for in life will just magically appear. Sadly, most of us live in this giant gap between the dreams we have for our lives and these dreams actually coming true.
So, how do you attain the things you’ve dreamed about? How do we overcome living in middle?
The best way I know to overcome this gap is to submit yourself willingly and intentionally to a plan of growth. How to develop a plan of growth? Seek God to make sure the dream you have is from Him (biblical). Write down your dream in a clear concise statement. Find someone who is doing it already and ask him or her to help you break it down into practical step.
Take the first step!
Remember dreams rarely come true in one step so don’t get discouraged God is working on your behalf. And “With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith”(2 Thessalonians 1:11).
