God Sized Dreams



We are made to fulfill the dreams of a Creator. The Creator’s eye can see every eventuality and every outcome; He breathes life into the stillness and lights hope in the darkness, and with all the magical wonder of His artistic ways, He created a space in the story line of eternity that only you can fill.

 Have you considered how you will fill it?

The Creator has.

"I know the thoughts I think toward you,’ says the Lord, ‘thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

He has huge plans and desires and ideas for your chapter in His story, for the way in which you will fill a shape in the puzzle of His masterpiece.

“Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.” (Psalm 139:16)

He has an outline for your story, but only you get to choose whether or not to live it... to fill in the words, to make the pages turn, to see the story continue.

Will you choose to do so?

Are you choosing to do so?

Are you taking the thoughts He places in your heart, the desires... are you taking them, running with them, pursuing them? Are you sacrificing everything? Are you willing?

With every rise of the sun are a million opportunities to walk in the narrow path He has ordained for you...

Or to falter, to stumble, to hide away.

But you are beautiful and glorious and made in the image of a Creator.

And you were never intended to hide away, for the Creator brought you “out of darkness” and “into His marvelous light.” (1 Peter 2:9) You were brought out of that darkness to fulfill a purpose, a destiny. To grasp ahold of His vision and to pursue it with every ounce of your being.

Our Creator is a dreamer.

Are you?
