Dreaming God-sized dreams

I've never considered myself a dreamer. I find satisfaction in to-do lists and practical solutions. I like to get things done. But I've found myself with lots of ideas lately.

Some are fleeting. Others are still with me while others have been transformed into new things.

I sense God nudging me to channel some of my skills and passions into a new adventure. This may mean fully promoting my freelance dreams. Or perhaps it could mean God's preparing us for our third adopted baby to be brought home. Or maybe I haven't even realized what the creator of the universe -- and my ideas! -- has in store.

With that said, when Holley Gerth asked for applications in November from women bloggers who wanted be part of a "dream team" she was creating, I applied. I'm one of 99 women selected to be part of this team, which has a private Facebook that is spilling over with encouragement and inspiration for how to make the most of where we are life, using the talents God has given.

My "dream" as stated on the application was something about pursing more freelance opportunities while not sacrificing my role as a wife and mother. I do think that's where God is leading me, but I certainly don't have an particulars nailed down and other fleeting thoughts and ideas and feelings have found their way into my heart and mind. So we'll see where this goes.

But I'm excited to be part of something I sense God will use in a mighty way to encourage women to make a difference for a kingdom so many people need nearer.

Join us by saying "yes" to God in your own way. And stay tuned to hear more about what I'm learning about God-sized dreams, which, by the way, don't have to be big in size, just in sync with what God is calling you to specifically. So, here's to dreaming and trusting the Creator to get us there!
