In 1925 Gutzon Borglum had a dream. He wanted to turn an obscure rock face, 6000 foot high Mount Rushmore, into giant sculptures of George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson and Theodore Roosevelt.

Many thought him out of his mind; a dream without any hope of completion.

But he ignored the written and vebal jibes and began with experienced miners to with jackhammers and dynamite remove 400,000 tons of outer rock.

Cutting within three inches of the final surface.
When he died in 1941 his dream of the world’s largest sculpture was near completion.

His son Lincoln finished the wok that October, some 14 years after it was begun.He was just a little boy and he was spending a great deal of time staring out the window at the moon.
Finally his mother asked him “Why?”

With utter seriousness he looked up at her and said, “Mother, one day I am going to walk on that moon.”
32 years later he did. Despite a motorcycle accident that broke almost every bone in his body, James Irwin, Apollo 15, 1971, astronaut did.

Dreams

Dreams do sometimes come true.

And if instead they die upon a vine
we are still the better off for having dug around the roots.


It is then they have been a teacher if only for a little while.

No dream really dies

Unless we will it so.

A dream, unfulfilled, is like a haunting note of music that will not quit.

Like the weary ripple of a stream

Caught up in drought

But continuing to look for rain.

Dreams are timeless.

Made of intangible stuff.Each dream is one of a kind

Looking for immortality.

Dreams come in many ways.

In sleep just before awakening.

In wakefulness when a soul has just reached up for the stars.
But however they come, do not curse a dream,
Or deny a dream, or forget a dream, for a dream is

A part of you.

Somebody once said "The biggest room in the world is the room for improvement." Make room in your life for improvement. And if you think you are already very good, look closely.

You might still want to tweak a few things to make you better.

If you are trouble having trouble finding someone to believe in your dreams…start with yourself.

Just remember…a man’s reach should exceed his grasp.

Yesterday is but a vision, and tomorrow is only a dream. But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness, and every tomorrow a dream of hope.Anonymous

Where there is no vision [no redemptive revelation of God], the people perish; but he who keeps the law [of God, which includes that of man]--blessed (happy, fortunate, and enviable) is he. Proverbs 29:18

A quote below from ONE A DAY blog entitled EVANGELISM – BREAKTHROUGH OR BREAKDOWN?“Evangelism never was a great issue in the New Testament? Nowhere in its reading does one find Apostles exhorting, scolding, planning and organizing evangelistic programs.

There was no real need for a 10 Point Follow Through Program for the simple reason that a rather large number of early church members had a propensity for not shutting up.
In the Apostolic church, because so many were on fire for their faith, evangelism was somehow assumed.

It was 1948 when Gulag Irkutsk, a Christian believer in Siberia, received a 25-year sentence. After refusing to work on the Sabbath, he was ordered to stand in a 3 x 4 foot cell for 10 days with only water for nourishment.

For a year Irkutsk went through…”

When Robert Louis Stevenson was a boy he once remarked to his mother, "Momma, you can't be good without praying." "How do you know, Robert?" she asked. "Because I've tried!" he answered.
 
It helps when you pray to have a touch of forever in it.
 
To think “In the beginning” and remind yourself with awe that you are aiming at Number One in the Universe.
 
There was an Adam and there was an Eve and God talked with them; that one who made it so all your cells could come together to form a person called you.

Who hung the stars in their proper places in the sky. Who instigated gravity and color and...well, that should be enough to get you in the proper mood.


Speaking of creation, think about the fact that the first prayers were between God and Adam.


It was all new and bright and filled with Eden and they talked or better still God talked and Adam listened. It made perfect sense. There was a natural linkage since man is made in God's image.


It's still that way. God asking "What are you doing?" and hopefully we replying "What do you want me to do?"
 
Sometimes we are afraid, as was Adam. Afraid of what is happening or about some good we are not making happen.
 
Almost everyone wants to improve their talking to God life. If you are one of them then check in at the throne of grace.


Allow yourself to feel the power of the Holy Spirit.
Be comforted when there is tragedy. Seek the comfort of God strength when weakness comes to call. Have an ongoing relevant communication, not just a conversation, with the Creator.
 
How? If you would not waste the wonder of prayer, teach yourself to relax before you pray. In short, to seek quiet stillness, chew your spiritual cud so to speak. If your prayer is a disoriented scream or a confused shout you are not asking for help but rather for trouble.

Sometimes, the best thing we can do at the beginning of a prayer, in particular, if our thoughts are racing a hundred miles an hour, is to simply fall upon our knees and shut up.
 
Remember how the scripture reads, “Speak (Lord) for your servant is listening.” (1 Samuel 3:10 NIV) It is certainly better than mouthings from your soul that read, “Listen Lord, for your servant is speaking.”

The word "inspiration" in Greek literally means "breathed out from God." I like to describe prayer as that particular kind of inspiration we feel when our heavenly Father tingles our soul.

Prayer? When you pray you stretch your soul, you find your soul, you use your soul, you do not forget you have a soul. If you do not pray you can too easily sell your soul. It is always a matter of daily choice, the picking of God's power for man's problems or man's power for man's problems?
 
Cry a bucketful of tears or pray a bucketful of prayers. Give up and fall down or look up and stand tall.
 
Psalms 145:18 (NIV)“The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.”
