You wanna know what makes my jaw drop in awe and my eyes grow moist? It’s the realization that the dream I seek, seeks me, too. I’m not alone in the dreaming. To know it’s not a one-way stretch, to know that the universe is pulling for me too, feeds my confidence. Henry David Thoreau wrote: “… if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.”

I’m encouraged. I’m motivated to keep moving forward, to persist in putting action to my God-given desires and dreams, knowing I’ll be met with success. I don’t want to waste my life. I don’t want to let the universe down. It’s ready, poised, just waiting for me. We collaborate. We conspire. We act. God smiles.

Yep, that makes my jaw drop. That makes my eyes tear up just a little. Just imagine if everyone were to get busy fulfilling their life purpose and bringing their unique gifts to the world. Just imagine . . .
