God Say, Don’t Wait on Your Dreams
The best day to get started on your dreams is today — not when you’ve solved all your problems or when you have more money in the bank. “Those days” never seem to get here.
The Bible says, “If you wait for perfect conditions, you will never get anything done” (Ecclesiastes 11:4 LB).
Our unquenchable search for perfection often fuels our procrastination. And that keeps us from pursuing our purpose.
If you wait for perfect conditions to follow your calling, you’ll never get started. Things won’t settle down. Wait until you get out of debt before tithing, and you’ll never get back on your feet financially.
Your dreams are no different. If you wait until the kids are out of the house or until you have money in the bank to start working on the dream God has given you, you’ll likely never get there.
Your life — and your quest to live out your dreams — must be lived in less than perfect circumstances. You’ll be able to count the number of perfect situations in your life on one hand.
So get started now. No matter what situation you find yourself in, start living out your dreams today. Tomorrow may not come.
