Do You Have a Dream?

Do you “Have a Dream?”

“I love Martin Luther King's “I have a dream” speech when he so eloquently declared: “I have a dream that even injustice will be transformed into an oasis of Freedom and Justice.” He gave us all hope that our dreams can take us from a state of hopelessness to an oasis of fulfillment where we drink deeply from the waters of who God has made us to be.

For some of us, like me, we may have to say: “it's never too late, and you are never too old,” to fulfill our dreams. I remember when I lost my job where I had worked for almost 20 years and I wondered what I should do next. God opened up doors for me to go back to school, get my Master’s degree in Counseling and become a Licensed Professional Counselor.

And today, years later, when I see some client with tears running down their face and I can help turn those tears of sadness into tears of gladness, I know ---- yes I know, without a doubt ----that the dream I discovered is the dream I was meant to live.

So today I say to you: “Never give up on your dreams.” Whether you've got a dream down deep in your heart that hasn't come to life yet, or whether you're not sure what God wants your dream to be, keep working on becoming the best you ----and make Martin Luther King junior proud!
