Dream Big & Expect Joy

As a kid, you dreamed big dreams! You didn’t limit yourself to the possible or to what was respectable. You dreamed what you dreamed and that was enough. You may think you’ve lost the capacity to dream, but you’re wrong. You already know how to do it. You’ve done it before. You’ll do it again. We’re being invited by God to dream again—he’s giving us the gift of becoming more like children, because children know how to dream.


And dreaming will lead to joy! It’s a wonderful thing, and God intends for us to experience it. Joy is one of Jesus’ central promises to his friends: “Ask, using my name, and you will receive, and you will have abundant joy.” The joy the Triune God is bringing is not a thing or a commodity. It is a way of being, a connection of God's life with our astonished, suddenly-dreaming hearts.
