Dreams Do Become True

This is a story of two dreams that I have been able to live out. We always wonder if dreams will always come true. Dreams may or may not become a reality. Sometimes dreams can be cloudy until you can walk through them and see that they were meant to happen. I was only popular as a child by trying to participate in the many different programs at school. I had less than average grades in school. I did not know what I wanted to do as I grew up.I had always done ministry oriented things but as a job I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to do. As a child I had a burning desire to fulfill the call of God on my life. I went on two mission trips as a teenager and then as an adult I went on a mission trip as an adult. I have to Atlanta Georgia in 1996 and Panama in 1997 and in 2005 I went to a Navajo Indian reservation in Fort Defiance Arizona. I have always wanted to go to Mexico. An opportunity just came available for me to go to Mexico and in just a few days I am leaving to fulfill a dream I have had that has not been an easy dream to fulfill. I was in ministry and planning to go in 2004 and the trip was canceled and then once again in 2020, I raised the funds to go and a castropic event flooded our country and the trip was canceled. Now I have raised the funds and my dream is coming fulfilled right before me. I tried so many fundraisers in the last few months but very little people sponsored me. I really like to write and have nine published books but they are special in their own ways. It hasn't been a successful dream in selling them. It was fun and a lot of work but rewarding to have published my books. So the next dream that I am also living in has a personal meaning andis one that a few people have actually prayed over me to come to fruitition. I have tried to sell for different catalog companies and I am just not a sales marketing minded of a person but what is something that I can do and be successful at doing is writing books. Now these books are right at the page minimum for publishing and so they are very basic. These books are devotions, children's stories and word references. So I started doing Bible worksheets and having them published. I don't sell too many but the reviews are always rewarding for me to receive . It helps me to grow in the areas I need to improve in. It helps me to believe in myself and to see the accomplishments I have done. Through selling my Bible worksheets I can study God's word and use my wisdom, knowledge and imagination that God has given me to be the best publisher I can be. Learning how to operate the site and doing PDF conversions wasn't always easy to learn. It is fun and rewarding as well. These worksheets consist of word find, scripture look up, Fill in the blank and so many others. As a child, I was critiqued a lot by mother and things were just what seemed liked never good enough for her approval so I struggle with perfectionism as I am older and just being confident in who I am and to be and do the very best that I can at what I do. I am a person that likes to get the approval of others. I want to gain their approval and by accepting their approval, I gain my confidence. Now even when I do not get the acceptance of others around me I put two feet ahead of me and keep trotting along to be all that I can be and learn to grow from those experiences that are meant to push me to my fullest potential. Dreams may not always come true. Some dreams are bad. Some dreams are crazy. Some are never accomplished. Some dreams are put to the test of time. Some dreams may need interpreted. We hear the saying to "Dream Big" and for some people that is what exactly what needs to happen for great things to take place. The sky is the limit. Not all dreams need to lay dorment and so I believe you need explore this big world we live in and take those dreams and grab a hold and make them a reality. I believe Dreams can be true if you are to seek your dreams out and make them personal. It's your dream. It does not matter if someone likes your Dream. As long as you believe in yourself you can fulfill those dreams you have
