Yesterday my newest book, Every Sunrise, arrived on my doorstep.
It was good timing because I was on my way to a support group I run for teen moms and the topic for the night was, “Reaching for goals and dreams.” It was awesome to sit with the teen mothers and tell them, “Twenty years ago I was a pregnant teen, yet today–because of God–I’m a wife, mom, and author with 18 books in print.”
Eyes around the room grew wide as they realized there was HOPE. In the world’s eyes these girls are nothing more than a statistic, but hopefully my story reminded them that God has GOOD plans for them, just as He had for me!
How about you? Do you have a dream that you haven’t realize? Is it something that God has placed on your heart? If so, today can be the day to take a first step. If you did (do it, do it!) … what would that step look like?
Trust that if God gave you the dream He also knows the path! Have HOPE. Believe in Him!
If I had a dream, it’s lost now. The only thing I care about at this time is the future of my boys.
I see how the world is turning and my main goal and duty is to teach my children that there is a most wonderful and Holy God and that the Lord Jesus is their Savior.
Btw, I finished Ever Sunrise in one day, hee…
