I'm continuing to read a great book by Chip Ingram, and the chapter on dreaming great dreams is awesome. Reminding us that God asked people like Abraham to go places they'd never heard of, the author challenges the reader to get out of their comfort zone. All the people who dreamed God-sized dreams were not superheros. They were just like us, as the author states, "desperately insecure, uptight about finances, prone to relational conflict, and at times full of fear."
I'd better follow the dream God's behind, and the dream that God has for me and many other people at our church. When it comes to fruition, it'll be beyond my wildest imagination. Yes, that's the kind God we serve! God calls us to step out in faith, just as Abraham did. I've no idea where this dream will end up, but I'm stepping out and trusting God who wants me to dream the impossible, because it then becomes a dream only God himself can fulfill!
So I'm calling all dreamers, to come and dream the impossible and see God turn it into his possible! I'm ready, are you?

yay! :) the rooks household is full of dreamers and we're so pumped that God let us to Southside and that we have stayed the past 4 years
Bruce Wilkinson wrote a great book called The Dream Giver - maybe you can check it out! :)
Funny, you and Pastor John have mentioned Abraham and I talked about my readings in Hebrews 11 about Abraham and how it parallels to my life. I think God may be saying something, heck it was already said, we are just now getting around to listening. Keep the Faith!
Thanks brother
