Write down your dream...

      I am not that much of a religious person, however, there is a part in the Bible that says that when you want God to deliver your wishes, writing them down, praying for them, and waiting on His Grace are the three major steps to you actually attaining that goal. I promise this is true


         Then the Lord replied:
“Write down the revelation

    and make it plain on tablets
    so that a herald may run with it.
 
  For the revelation awaits an appointed time;
   it speaks of the end
    and will not prove false.
 Though it linger, wait for it;
    it will certainly come
    and will not delay.
(Habakkuk 2:2-3)
       I think that as a Christian, this makes me happy. From the bottom of my heart. Think about it, God holds so much Power and Might, yet he gives his children so much Power. When God tells you that your words and prayers mean this much to him, this is definitely something to cause some sort of joy. Ever since I was a little girl, I believed in hope, and miracles, and God's grace and mostly prayers. I still pray about every thing, no matte how mediocre the thing might appear to me.
       I was born in Kenya, a small country in East Africa, and I grew up there and built my life there. However, deep in my heart I knew that one day i would love to come to the U.S, and build my adult life here. it is not like I abhored my homeland ever, I just knew that that beautiful country had very little to offer a girl with such big dreams. I would dream of one day coming to America to pursue an education in any field in Medicine, to live the good life America offers, to help the needy, and in turn, give back to my home country that seems to need so much help here and there. I wrote down in my diary when I was 12 that I wanted to come here. I saw myself here. I talked to God about it and wished for it. I prayed for it, and waited on His reply, like a young girl waiting to hear hr father say "Yes, I will take you to Disney", after a long period of silence.
         I am now here, a Nursing Program hopeful in University. It's been three years since the plane touched down on American soil, and I know for a fact that God listens to prayers. I pray about every single thing.
         Forget about all that life story stuff I just told you. The only thing you need to know is that your prayers do get to God. Do not despair and do not loose hope. God's got your back. No matter WHAT you are going through, no matter how much it hurts, or how hopeless you feel, always remember that. Go to Him because he is our Universal Father. Pour yourself on his knees, cry if you want yo...if it makes you feel better. And when the tears are dry, and you are not able to cry anymore, just take down a piece of paper and tell Him everything. he already knows, but this intimacy is what is beautiful.
         Write down why you are angry, sad. And then process to ask him for how you would love for Him to relieve this issue. Don't worry about time specifics, God runs by his clock. But remember, whatever you want...He will not delay it. Be hopeful. You are His child. Has a Father ever denied his child food, or given him/her what he or she did not cry for? No. You are in good Hands. His Hands. Everything you want you shall get. Everything. Just work hard, believe in Him, aim for it, and do not loose Hope. Every single thing? It will come about!
