I Dreamt A Dream

There was one point in time where I dreamt of being a professional Christian.

What is a professional Christian you ask?

Someone whose full time job is ministry. Specifically, I wanted to be a worship pastor.

I love music and I love leading worship but in the past 6 years, things have shifted for me.

I still love music and yes I still love leading worship but it’s not my main drive anymore.

Is it because of hesitation or past pain that has come from that?

Sure.

Is it because I’m more mature and have grown out of it?

Of course not.

Maybe I’m just changing and God is using every situation to help me trust him more.

So I do dream a dream and now I’m dreaming again but these dreams aren’t broad but they are more down to earth:

How can I serve God in my marriage?

How can I parent in a Godly way?

Am I a life giving friend?

These things matter to me more than the “dream” job.

So, I walk, work, and wait faithfully on God and I learn to trust in him.

Proverbs 3:5-6 NET

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding. [6] Acknowledge him in all your ways, and he will make your paths straight.
