No matter what’s going on in your life, I want to encourage you “Never forget your dreams. Never give up”.
For me, a lifetime struggle has been my weight. Most of my life I have weighed over 200+ pounds. But back in 2013, God worked a miracle in my life. I weighted 241 pounds, and He helped me lose around 90 pounds.
After a sponsor in Celebrate Recovery told me she couldn’t help me, I cried for three days. She was a recovering drug addict. But she said she didn’t know how to help someone with a food addiction. Because I was beyond the help of an x-drug addict. But God. But God.
Then I cried out to God and He helped me lose over 90 pounds. No pills, no shots, or no surgery. Just God. Now it’s over 11 years later. Yes, I’ve gained some back, but I’m never giving up. God’s not giving up on me and He is not giving up on you either.
So, I want to lose another 20 pounds. I want to write books. And I want to help others to win victory over their own weight loss struggles.
So, what about you? What do you want? Also, what are your dreams? What do you want out of life?
During parts of May and June 2025, we went on vacation out west to Yellowstone and other sites. One of the sites we visited was the Crazy Horse Memorial. It’s awesome and huge. They’re still working on it, after 77 years. God is still working on you too. Check out the following link: https://crazyhorsememorial.org/
One thing that impressed me about this memorial was their statement, “Never forget your dreams.” So, what are your dreams? What do you want out of life? Think about this, what do you want to achieve? What do you want to be your legacy? Again, I say to you, “Never forget your dreams. Never give up.”
I bought this little medallion to remind me. “Never forget your dreams.”
God placed those dreams inside of you. And you can be confident of this, He’s going to continue working on you until those dreams are finished. He has planned for your victory. Try talking to Him about your dreams. It just might surprise you how He answers your heart.
No matter how many times you messed up. No matter how many times you fell down, God will pick you up, clean you up, and give you a new start. Yes, after talking to Him and telling Him all about your failures, He will cleanse you and give you a new beginning, clean and fresh.
Then as you continue to seek His guidance and follow His leading, He will lead you to the fulfillment of those dreams He placed within you so long ago. Talk to Him today. How about now?
FEED ON THIS
God is the One who began this good work in you, and I am certain that He won’t stop before it is complete on the day that Christ Jesus returns. Philippians 1:6 CEV
The godly may trip seven times, but they will get up again. But one disaster is enough to overthrow the wicked. Proverbs 24:16 NLT
He gives power to the weak and to those who have no might, He increases strength. Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion. But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. they will soar high on wings like eagles. they will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:29-31 NKJV
