Dreams

We all have dreams

About the lives we hope to lead;

It starts when we are very young

And think we know what we need;

Sometimes we’re disillusioned

Sometimes our dreams change course;

As days go by and turn to years

Let’s bring our dreams to the Source;

Our dreams may seem so out of reach

Or buried deep within our soul;

When the truth is that we can’t out-dream

The One who makes us whole;

We could never guess or request it

Even in our wildest dreams;

He has so much in store for us

Then we could ever comprehend, it seems;

So go ahead and dream your dreams

As you open the door and let Him in;

Then watch Him work and be prepared

To receive the power from Him;

If you live by faith

And others see you trust;

As the Spirit works gently within you

He’s never a forceful gust;

He will shower you with blessings

So that others will also see;

The inconceivable peace and joy

That pours out of you and me;

Who wouldn’t want

Their dreams to not come true;

When our God the dream maker

Is immeasurably able to do;

So much more than we could ever imagine

Why limit ourselves with our finite brains;

Watch him exceed your every dream

Our capable God of the universe reigns!

~ by Pamela Sayers

Based on Ephesians 3:20-21 – “Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever! Amen.”
