Whenever we talk about dreams, what readily come to our mind are the things we experience while asleep. What we have to consider today, however, transcends the vision of the night. It is a vision of the future; a desire, an ambition, a projection and a purpose. It has nothing to do with fantasy or wishful thinking; it is a purpose which stretches and propels into action.
We experience our full human potentials when we embrace and pursue such dreams. Proverbs 29:18 says “Where there is no vision, the people perish”. A man/woman without vision is dead and only waiting for the grave; indeed must be a goal that you desire to attain in life.
Do you realize that the great achievements that we see all around us today are not mere accidental occurrences? They are but dividends of great dreams and purposeful living. The creation of our World was the product of God’s dreams. The redemption of mankind from the pangs of sin and hell was the products of Christ’s purpose and dream. People like Joseph, the beloved son of Jacob, nurtured the dream of greatness and consequently became the prime minister of Egypt in his days. History also recorded that Abraham Lincoln, after several failures, got to White House as America’s President because his dreams neither died nor waned through the pressure of disappointment.
Indeed, your dream determines your place, molds your destiny and makes your future. If your dream is small, then you are small, if your dream is mediocrity, then you are mediocre, if your dream is supernatural, then you are supernatural.
What then is your vision as a man/woman? Do you aim at being a man/woman of nothingness or of greatness? Do you even have a dream at all?
