Where I see great risk, God sees great reward.
Where I stand scared in my shoes, God holds me firm.
Where I am overwhelmed by the forrest, God shows me the beauty in the trees.
And, although I do not know the full extent of my dream as of yet, I know that the plan is in His hands.
So I dream. I dream that this little blog grows; that it continues to inspire me in new, creative ways; that eventually, it allows me the option of a different type of employment; that it reaches who it needs to reach and helps who needs helping; I dream a God-sized dream.
And I take comfort in the excitement that comes with the early stages. I try to pace myself, set goals, make initial plans – all with knowledge that everything could change. For often, God-sized dreams are never as they appear on the onset.
I hope you’ll join me on this journey, because I’m excited to share how the dream takes hold & takes shape. But more importantly, I hope you have your own God-sized dream – Something so big that it scares you and excites you at the same time. Do you have such a dream? Do you want such a dream? Have you already lived it? Can you offer any advice?
Today I’m linking up with Holley and so many other dreamers over here. Feel free to click over and read about other God-sized dreams around the world.
Oh I pray your dream of growing your blog comes true! Sounds like you have exciting things ahead… And a beautiful heart!

Thanks Genny!
Your dream and fears are echoed by many Christian bloggers. We wear our hearts on our blogs, wanting to surrender everything that we do for the glory of God. We may not know where it leads us, but we know who we are being led by! and that greatly encourages us to persevere!
I also hope that I will be consistent in my blogging and by God’s grace may He grow it if He thinks I’m ready for it. Hugs!

P.s I totally know how inconvenient it is to be flat footed
I’m short too. (not to mention that I’m Asian so yeps!) ^^
Aww Esther, I really needed your comment tonight! Thanks so much! I”m glad to know that I’m not alone – in my fears or with my flat feet
I look forward to reading more on your blog & pray that your God-sized dreams come true! Blessings my friend
Thank you too
haha, you know I actually had that crazy idea of designing and making gorgeous heels for flat-footed people.
Cause I can’t find any in the market it’s quite discouraging
But it’s okay, we’re still accepted into heaven and will be given a new body! hehe!
See you around
