Childish faith

Do you remember when you were a child, and you had BIg dreams about the future, what you wanna work with, what you want to become, who you wanna be like. The thing about children is that they never dream small, they never say that they are gonna be a failer. No, children always see themselves as the princess or the prince of the fairytale, not the sidekick.
So when does that disappear? That childish expectation? When does it become almost a little shameful to dream big? And why?

Honestly, I do not think people can achieve great things without dreaming big, and I dont think that people can find joy in what they do if they dont have an expectation they will reach all that they dream about. The things that you are struggling with becomes so much easier when you have a goal in front of you that you believe ou WILL reach.
Just look at Josef in the Bible, he had big dreams, but it took time for him to reach them, he never stopped believing.
Or listen to what Paul said, that he does not run without a goal in sight.
Or what Jesus said, that you need to become like a child.
Because to be able to receive from God you need to be HIS child and believe that he wants to bless you, having a daddy realtionship with God makes it easier to come to Him every day, childishly believing that you have the princess or prince role in his eyes!

I never want to stop believing childishly, I never want to grow out of my reaching the stars attityde, I never wanna stop being exited over things that actaully are kinda small and insignificant. Being perfect and believing are two different things, one is trying to be all you can on your own which will make you exhausted, but believing is knowing I can not do it all on my own, but God who lives in me, He can!
But it can be hard in a world that is stressed, lacking faith and where people have lost their values. Sometimes it is so easy to fall into one of those holes; indifference, disappionted hope, or comparing yourself to someone you think will do it better then you. It is better to have tried and fail, rise again and try again,rather then to never try at all!

Being humble is not about lacking faith, it is not about lying to yourself saying you are not good enough, it is not about lacking selfconfidence. being humble is about seeing your strengths but also seeing your weaknesses and admitting them. Understanding that we are not good enough on our own, but that God has bought us free from that, so now we are good enough in His eyes! And if you are good enough in His eyes, then who are you say differently? If He says you can, then you can!
His word is for you, to you and not just for everyone else!

Become that child again who thinks you are Gods little prince/princess.
Pick up your dreams and put in some endurance, and follow it through, dont give up on the first speedbump.
And if God belives in you so should you!!! Stop depending so much on what your feelings tell you and start depending on what the word of God is telling you instead.

There is a song that I would like to qoute;
Im not gonna live by what I see, Im not gonna live by what I feel, deep down I know that you are here with me and I know that YOU can do anything! NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE!!!
