For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

--Jeremiah 29:11

In the face of adversity, it’s all too easy to get tired and give up on our divine dreams. It’s also easy to let past sin or guilt keep you from fulfilling the dreams God has for your life.

Maybe you think that ever having a healthy marriage again is impossible. You may doubt that your kids will ever honor Christ with their lives. Or you might feel like God will never be able to use you again in ministry.

Despite what you think or feel, as His child, God still has big dreams for your life. He hasn’t given up on you or forgotten about your situation! And He wants to use you in His redemptive plan for humanity.

So keep dreaming big dreams for your life and your future. And keep trusting that God does, as the Scripture says, have plans for your life, plans to give you a future and a hope!

DESPITE WHAT YOU THINK OR FEEL, AS HIS CHILD, GOD STILL HAS BIG DREAMS FOR YOUR LIFE.
