Romans 8:37

37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

Let me start by saying that there are wise Christians, who really are looking out for our best interests and simply want us to make sure that we are doing God’s will. That said, there are many more people who want to poo poo on our dreams and passions simply because they are mean spirited.

In this day and age, we are bombarded with criticism and reasons why we can’t do something. We are surrounded by negative “thinkers” and pessimistic people who like to rain on our parade with their negative words.

If you have a God-given dream or passion, then step out in faith and make that dream a reality. If it is truly God’s will, then God will make it happen.

Look at Noah. I bet his neighbors called him crazy and thought he needed to be locked up in a padded cell, but Noah listened to God, built the ark and the rest is history. Noah didn’t care what the rest of the world thought. God’s opinion was the only one that mattered. Noah stepped out in faith and God blessed him abundantly.

Don’t listen to the naysayers. If you have a God-given dream, then trust God and build your ark. You are more than a conqueror in Christ.
