My beautiful man and I went along to church with my parents this Sunday just past and I must say, the message was great – and timely! (As often seems to be the case ;))
The pastor was talking about being a ‘change your world’ leader. A lot of the principles he discussed being necessary to make a difference in the world, I believe applies to anyone who has a big dream in life.
Mine? To run an agistment property and offer those on it and others wanting to learn about horses the opportunity to discover the joy that is living and learning horses and the avenues and careers in which you can further explore the wonderful world of horses.
One point that he made which I loved was “to make a difference in this world, you don’t have to be the best. You just have to care the most.”
So true! Whatever it is that you’re passionate about; you’re going to get places because of your enthusiasm rather than your perfection. There were three main points about the leader that changes the world. These were:
– Define the goal clearly (as shown in Nehemiah 2:4-5)
– Make plans carefully (as shown in Nehemiah 2:6-8)
– Inspire people passionately (as shown in Nehemiah 2:17-18)
The one other point that really caught my attention I’ve heard before but had forgotten: if your dream is big enough to achieve without God, you’re not dreaming big enough!
So! What’s your dream? 🙂
“Light yourself on fire with passion and people will come from miles to watch you burn.” – John Wesley
