Pursue My Dream

As I was studying the word I realized that pursue can be synonymous with chase, which is what my personal brand is all about, albeit accidentally. The thing is, many times I would feel tired looking at the words “chasing dreams” like it’s an endless chase; like, you know, it makes me want to stop chasing for once. Like, can I just hibernate and wait in one corner until my dreams magically happen?!

But I realize time and time again that this life is truly an endless chase, a pursuit. We can slow down but we can’t stop moving forward. Even when we’re waiting on God, we have to keep doing something while we wait. Even when we have found our bliss, we have to work hard to maintain it and keep aiming for the best. We have to keep on pressing on.!

And I know I will get drained, and tired, and maybe even burned out along the way. But I also know that my strength is not my own, and I will be drawing it from the One who pursued meand keeps on pursuing me in the first place.

When God calls us to do something, it’s often exhilarating and mind-blowing. And then it becomes scary. And sometimes it makes us want to give up. But it’s all part of the pursuit, the journey. And I’m ready to feel the pain, and to work hard, and to press on this year, if it means giving God the glory and making this little world I live in a better place each day.

Can you feel my excitement? I feel like I’ve blabbered on non-stop in this post. I’m excited to share more about where I am now and where the Lord is taking me (and my family) this year. I have to stop typing or else my heart is going to burst.
