Hi Jana, Isn't learning to live the dream the real problem? Life isn't about a destiny (heaven); it's a journey with God as constant companion that culminates in heaven. Life is about that journey.
Helen - yes, I believe you are right. Many are afraid or too timid to actually live their dream. Heaven will surely be a wonderful place but that is not the reason to live. Every moment on this journey with God should be cherished.
I believe it was Dr. Norman Vincent Peal who said, “What the mind of man can dream it can archive.” There was a dreamer who wound up in trouble, only to know and see the blessing of his God in the end. His name was Joseph.
Mervi - I'm going to assume the word is actually "achieve" rather than "archive" and, "Yes," I agree. The story of Joseph is one of my favorites. I remember reading it as a young child and crying.
Born in 1960, you can say she's a boomer. She's married to the love of her life, Brian, who is also her pastor, mom to three gorgeous kids, and wears many different "hats." Her personal passion is singing and she recorded her first CD which was released February 2007. You can hear clips at her website, www.janaallard.com.
