I Had a Dream! I Stopped Letting Walls Stop Me

I had a dream! In my dream I felt that I could accomplish a great deal if I just believed in myself. Too often we all stop moving forward because we don’t have confidence in our abilities.

In my dream  I stopped letting walls stop me. I turned all the walls over to God, and I knew He was much taller and stronger than any wall.

I dreamed of crossroads that where I made the right decisions and go the path that God has chosen for me, and not the road that Satan wants me to go on.

I dreamed that 99% of everything I worried about never really happened, and I  turned to other 01% over to God.  

This doesn’t have to be a dream my friends. All of it is right there for you. All you have to do is believe in yourself and God.

With God on your side, who can be against you?

We Sometimes Wonder Where God is

I just received notice that I will be one of the authors doing signings at the Oregon State Fair this year. That should fun.

If you are in that area from August 26th- September 5th, drop by and say hello!

________________________________________________

I told you that I was in eastern Oregon Visiting my daughter-in-law this week. It has been a wonderful experience. Spending time with her has been a blessing.

I was just outside to get some fresh air, and two quails walked right in front of me. They didn’t seem to be too afraid, as long as I didn’t make any sudden movements.

At night the skies here are incredible. There are no city lights here and the brilliance of the stars takes your breath away.

This reminds me that God created everything we see. The majesty of the snow capped mountains I’ve been seeing all this week are a good example.

Sometimes we wonder if God is there. We have times when everything seems to go wrong. The car won’t start and you are late for work. The illness you thought had gone away is back again with a vengence. That job you have had for years has disappeared.

This brings on the usual suspects we face: anxiety, depression, self-doubt, addictions, fear, etc.

I understand most of those afflictions. I have felt lost, and didn’t know what to do. Then I found that God was there and He has been there for me ever since. 

_________________________________________________________

If you are having some of these difficulties, there is a new book that I had published called, “Signs of Hope: Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World.” It is full of examples that shares common sense ways to cope in a not so friendly world.

Find Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World

I am enjoying some time visiting my daughter-in-law in LaPine, Oregon. It is way out in the middle of central Oregon away from any big cities, and at night there aren’t any city lights. I am able to type this around a camp fire tonight, and be able to see the Big Dipper about as clear as you could possibly see it. The stars tonight are aglow with the splendor that only our God could create.

Do you see the lights well? Is the hindrance from outside sources making your view of the lights dim?

Many of us have been there. At one time I was totally in the dark, feeling around trying to find my way in life. I battled depression, anxiety, fear, self-doubt, and many of the other afflictions that block our view of life.

Then I opened my heart to the LORD, and the lights came on. I could see for ever. I knew that the LORD took on all of my afflictions  so that I would have the burden of them anymore.

Stop letting the world pull you down like a huge magnate. Turn all your worries over to the LORD.
