A Dream Come True

If you plan on reading this blog for any amount of time you will see a recurring theme. Gratitude. It's who I am not just what I do. Why? Because God is so good. There isn't anything in my life that I deserve. When I look at all of His blessings I immediately get overwhelmed at what a great father he is to me. My wife. My kids. His favor. My life. My calling. His anointing. My family. His blessings. It never stops. He is so good to me. I am truly overwhelmed.

I was laying in bed last night talking to Holly just overwhelmed at what God is doing right now. I am living the life that I have dreamt of since I was 14. No, it has very little to do with what I do for a living. It has everything to do with just walking with Him. I know it sounds cheesy. I don't care.

It never stops. He is constantly speaking. I can't remember it ever being like this. I feel like I am in closer proximity to Him now than ever before. It is my dream come true. I don't care what I do for a living. I don't care where I am. All I want is to be with Him. The richness that comes from walking intimately is better than anything on earth.

I was talking to my dad the other day about where I am in life right now. I couldn't even articulate how I feel about what God is doing. It's too difficult to put into words. It feels impossible to even try.

This isn't to brag one bit. If nothing else it's to advertise the fact that God desires every one of us to walk so intimately with him that we never withdraw from him. He is a father...he just wants to be with you.

Get away. Withdraw from the stuff. from the people. Withdraw with him. It's worth it.

Do that and your dreams will come true.
