I spent hours and hours thinking about all of the abilities, opportunities, gifts, people, hobbies, interestes, responsibilities that are a part my life. As I examined each one....I asked the question.....is this a part of my dream? I confused myself a lot. I always thought that God had a big plan or assignment for my life. I thought it was something that I had to search out and find. Then I realized...... My husband, my daughter, my mom, the elderly lady that I take care of, my job, my art are all things that God has intentionally placed in my life for His purpose. He cares about and watches my heart as I handle each one every day. I will give an account to God for each of these areas. All these things put together make up God's multifaceted assignment for my life. ***They are assignments not dreams.*** For me...the 2 are separtate. That realization totally changed how I approach every single day! My life dream is to be annointed to love God, and feel love from God with every part of my heart. I personally CAN NOT do God's assignments for me well without loving God fully and without knowing that He loves me unconditionally. To make anything else the primary dream of my heart is unthinkable now. Dreams take time. I am praying for God to help me fully realize my dream. I struggle a lot with God's love. But I am working on it. I hope that your birthday party for Jesus was wonderful and blessed! Mary Andy, I finally figured out what my dream is.
