astra 0 Posted August 1, 2012 Don't be hopeless, Jasmine. Instead dream BIGGER. Be daring, dream huge! Psalm 37:4 says to delight in the Lord and He will give us the desires of our heart!. Delighting in ths Lord is so amazing, so joyful and it is so easy! It's as easy for our hearts (spirit) to delight in our Lord as for our physical bodies to breathe. When you get to know God, His Huge Heart towards us personally FOR YOURSELF, you can't help but dream HUGE. And the most amazing part is those dreams do come to pass :-)"Draw nigh to Him and He will draw nigh to you" (James 4:8) This first part is what each and every one of us has to do for ourselves, no one esle will do this for us. But then, when DADDY draws nigh to us, this is where the miraculous starts happening. He brings the whole Kingdom with Him into our life.Don't worry about your dreams, Jasmine. We have the easy and most delightful part - just going deep into Daddy's Heart and His part it to see to it that our dreams come to pass :-)After I said the above, I want to add just to be fair that no matter what our dreams are, no matter how big and great they are they ALL fade greatly compared to this very first part of Psalm 37:4. There is no dream our hearts can dream of, that can be as amazing, as desirable as delighting in the Lord. I too have dreams. They are neat and cool and all that, but none of them can even come in close comparison to the Great Dream Giver! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

astra 0 Posted August 1, 2012 What does it matter what other people think when it comes to YOUR dreams? It only matters what your Daddy God thinks and we already know what He thinks - where He is concerned it's always Yea and Amen for us. Some people are just expressing their opinions that are very subjective anyway. Even the world knows it, right? So why go by that?When you want something, see yourself as if you already have it. The main thing is not to lose the sight of your Father in the process. Our dreams shouldn't be the GOAL of our lives. They are just the by-product. The GOAL here is the very intimate relationship with the Father. So why not have a blast with Him writing scripts together and then watch them being propelled up high for Him to get the whole Glory?!So just come before Him and thank Him for giving you the desires of your heart. Thank Him for downloading the greatest and creative ideas for scripts, opening the right doors at the right time, bringing in the right connections and whatever else needs to be done, giving you great favor in people's eyes, turning their hearts towards you and while doing all this having such fun spending time with Him!

Cholette 0 Posted August 1, 2012 Let me say this to you Jasmine. Do some research on some of the top people in the business world. I read where the guy who created Federal Express was turned down 40 times...look where he is now. The cleaning spray "409" isn't called that for no reason...that number represents the amount of times it took for someone to give them a chance. It takes GUTS to keep going not only after 40, but over 400 times. Honestly, I don't know if I have that kind of guts, and I think I have guts galore... During this season, you will have to see every "no" as an opportunity for you to gain courage to keep going. GOd is developing tenacity in you and you won't get it through a "cake walk". It's going to take resistence for you to gain those muscles and get stronger in your stance. You have to believe in what you have and not allow what others say to sway you. If they don't want it, then it's not for them. You keep going until THAT person that God will send to help you further your dream, shows up.Be encouraged...I didn't read what the other comments were prior to mine so if I repeated anything, my apologies...

Jasmine 0 Posted August 1, 2012 But how do I get out of feeling hopeless? How do I not feel this way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
astra 0 Posted August 2, 2012 Jasmine, this is very simple. You are what you behold. You look at the situation that appears to be hopeless to your physical senses, you will feel hopeless. It's not just you, it's the same for all of us. When you look at your Father with Whom ALL THINGS are possible, Who makes a way where there SEEMS (in the natural) to be no way, hopelessness simply melts away. Make a conscious choice what you'd rather look at and stick with it. The crucial part is, I found out, when you stand on God's promises, you have to actually accept the fact that they are FOR YOU PERSONALLY, that you, JASMINE, are actually, FOR REAL experiencing them in your very own life right now (even though in the natural area it does not feel or look like it yet). The more real you will make it for yourself the sooner your answers will manifest in the natural.Trash those lies of the devil, that say you can't! I even sometimes imagine a toilet in my mind. When satan tries to feed me with his junk, I flush it down that toilet :-). Hey, whatever goes down there, STAYS there (where it belongs). I suggest you grab that feeling (spirit) of hopelessness that does not belong to you and is of the devil and flush it down. And do receive the Spirit of Joy and Peace and Confidence that your Daddy is right there in you, for you always and He backs you up all the time. Just believe that this is for you personally for real. Get RADICAL with God! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cholette 0 Posted August 3, 2012 Ask God to give you hope. He will do it. He will open your eyes to see things that you've never noticed before. You can't be hopeless unless you have already buried your dreams. Hopeless people are dreamless people and that's definately not you. You have a dream to write scripts and that's what you continue dreaming about. If you are finished with this script...write another...then another. Keep going and not let adverse circumstances stop you. If the devil thinks he can stop you at one "no", then he will put people in your way to discourage you. When he finds out that his plan doesn't work anymore...and the only thing it does is keeps you pushing further, he will stop.Courage is just pushing past something that is supposed to stop you. Are you courageous?? YEP! Keep it pushing girly... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cholette 0 Posted August 3, 2012 By the way...if you stop, think of ALL the people who won't be changed by your scripts. There are people waiting to gain from your writings. Take the focus off of yourself and put it on the millions that one day will be able to engage in your gift. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
