Dreaming Big


okay so my dad totally sent me these verses on saturday while we were at passion and so i just5 want to share them with you because while he sent me these verses my mind was totally on impacting college students in miami as well as other nations too! and i thought it totally fit into this weekend.

The verses are Ps. 2:8

" Only ask, and i will give you the nations as your inheritance, the whole earth as your possesion."

And Ps. 96:3

"Publish his glorious deeds among the nations. Tell everyone about the amazing things he does."

How perfect are these verses?!?!

this weekend was an incredible experience but what use is it if we keep what God did at that conference to ourselves?! What good is it if we just focus on what God did in us and not us that to impact our generation?!?! As i have come home and everything is starting to sink in my mind a little more i have shifted my thinking to What God did in me and What God wants to do through me to affect others! He has done amazing things and will continue to do amazing things SO SPREAD THE WORD! I told the girls in small group last night i have things running through my mind like crazy...ideas...dreams...and big things...and for awhile i just gave up on those things because i felt it was useless God couldn't use me or the things i had to offfer BUT THATS A LIE! he can and he wants to we have ASK AND PRAY AND TRUST GOD! Rem. his holy spirit is in us! Its crazy because i thought about this concept and i decided that my dreams were going to go somewhere this year i want to impact our generation for christ i want them to be in love with jesus i want them to feel loved, and wanted and precious in his site! And i decided that i would write all my dreams in a notebook called my dream book...and that each day i would pray for thesedreams and God not if its his will but that HE WOULD OPEN THE DOORS! Praying in faith that hes going to do it...so i know what your thinking but kristy dont get discouraged when it doesn't happen but u know what i have gotten to this point that i believe it will happen God has been putting this dream in my heart for awhile and i try and ignore it or say it can be done but its time to change God wants to do something great! and i believe hes going to do it! i am committed myself to doing this everyday! i want to not just take what happened at passion and keep to myself i want God to use me and the things i learned and share it with everyone!

I mean read those verse what a beautiful promise! "Only ask and i will give you the nations!" I'm so ready to ask and i putting up to the challenge Lord GIVE ME THE NATIONS! isn't are God so amazing! And read the next verse Tell everyone about the amazing things he does! Obviously this is just not for people of others nations (which you know i love) but its so for our nation the united states! These verses only confirm more my heart for Christ and the plans he has for me! i love him and i'm so glad he used these two verses to speak to me...i hope you find it as encouraging as i do...DON'T GIVE UP ON YOUR GOD DREAMS. keep praying in faith and he will open the door...he wants us to share the things hes doing in our lives with others...its all about bringing fame to His name.

You need to download the Passion Podcast. It's so awesome. It will fire you up even more (if that's possible). It's like Passion Plus.

In the last episode Louie spoke about Colossians 1:9-14. Read it and listen to Louie talk about it. Good stuff.
