Hebrews 11:1 tells us that now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. I love that verse because it speaks to the season I am in. I used to have a vivid imagination when I was young but that dwindled over my adult years because life has put a demand on me to be more responsible and more practical. However this year, I decided to make a radical change and gave myself permission to dream again and dream big. Once I realized that I serve a big God whose greatest pleasure is to show up and show off, I started to live my life according to 2 Corinthians 5:7 - For we live by faith, not by sight. I no longer determine what I can do by what my eyes can see rather I put all my faith in a God who showed me time and time again that He knows the plans He has for me, plans to prosper me and not to harm me, plans to give me hope and a future. He has a fantastic record of never failing me so I will follow what His formula calls me to do and that is to trust in Him with all my heart and not to lean on my own understanding because when I do, He will do me good all the days of my life!!
