When you make a commitment
to the will of the God you find out who is with you and who is not. Everyone is
not going to believe in your dreams and everyone is not going to push you. I
call them Dream Killers. There are a lot of Dream Killers out there
and they do not want to see you flourish. But I want to encourage you: “Finally,
my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might”. (Eph
6:10)
On the flip side,
some say to watch your circle but I allowed my faith to destroy the circle.
The circle did not allow me to be open to other people/situations that
might be a blessing to my life. With a circle, it is closed and no room for
anything else, it is also more controlled. I’m not saying to lose control of
the people in your life, I am saying is to be more perceptive and discern if it
is right or not. I had to learn to get rid of the circle because it was not
benefiting me. You need people in your life but be careful of the kinds of
people. Give yourself room to trust and if you struggle with trust, ask God to
help you with that. In the field I’m in I had to train myself to be open
minded. (I am still learning!) This is not always easy because Hurt can sometime become your best
friend. I find myself always consulting with God about EVERYTHING and then I
just walk in in faith.
Don’t be afraid to
eradicate whomever it may be. It could be family, friends, associates,
acquaintances, cat, dog, bird whatever! If they don’t speak, walk, and
believe the same language of life as you do cut it like gangrene. I began to
ask God to divinely put the right people in my life. God knows what and who I
need. I have been blessed to have a couple of REALLY good friends that I call
my “Dream
Supporters”. They push me to the limit and I am SO thankful for that.
My philosophy for
dreams/dreamers is simply. Dreamers are distinctive people. They get attacked,
criticized, rejected, and talked about the most. Sometimes being a dreamer can
leave you by yourself and it can be a lonely road. I also believe that
dreams were put in you the day you were born and NO one has the right to KILL
it for you. Since when did they become God? Since when did they determine your
fate? Never allow any human being to have that much control over your life. You
are out of order to destroy another
person’s dream. So ask yourself am I Dream
Killer or Dream Supporter? And this goes for me to.
We have more power
than we give ourselves credit for. I have the power to control whether or not I
want to keep my dreams going. It is all up to me! Some dreams require a lot of
work and diligence and this is when you must protect your dreams. It is your
baby, a part of you and what makes you get out of bed every morning. If you are
blessed to have just one person as a Dream Supporter, keep them close and
cherish them constantly. I am finding out MOST people in the world do not have
a support system.
Jesse Duplantis
said something very powerful, “Dreams
have no expiration date”. Society says that you have to be certain age to
do this or that but it is not true. It is what you believe. It starts in the
mind and then the heart. Getting both the heart and the mind working together
with the support of “Dream Supporters” you can make it. For those that do not have “Dream
Supporters” support and believe in yourself is what I can say. Look
yourself in the mirror and encourage yourself. I do it all time! Look inside
your own soul and speak life into it!
You can always pray for God to send someone that supports and believe in
your dreams. But at the end of the day you go to bed with those dreams inside
of you and they will not be soundless until you GRASP for them. Dreams have a
certain sound to them and only you can identify them so keep reaching toward
your dreams!
“Every great dream begins
with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the
patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.”- Harriet
Tubman
