#119 - When Dreams Die
Scriptures of the Day (NLT)
Proverbs 13:12 “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a dream fulfilled is a tree of life.”
Jeremiah 29:11 “ ‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ says the Lord. ‘They are plans for good… to give you a future and a hope.’ ”
Philippians 1:6 “He who began the good work within you will continue his work…”
Message From God
Son, let’s talk about the dreams you buried.
Not the childish fantasies but the deep ones. The ones you thought were from Me. The ones you prayed about, planned for, maybe even started building until life hit you like a freight train.
You know the ones.
The marriage you thought would never break.
The business that was supposed to change everything.
The ministry, the calling, the version of you that felt strong, clear, and unstoppable.
And then it all fell apart.
You don’t talk about those dreams much anymore. You’ve learned to “be realistic.” You tell yourself, “I missed my window. I blew my chance. I must’ve heard God wrong.” You’ve traded dreams for damage control just trying to hold together what’s left.
Hear Me: I saw every one of those moments. And I did not walk away when things collapsed.
