Facing the death of a dream...

When you're faced with the death of a dream...pain is excruciating. You poured your heart & soul into it-now it's gone...over, no more. There's an abyss of emptiness inside of you that's beyond the threshold of pain; you know you're alive yet death consumes your inside. Listen closely, you have hope, His name is Jesus & there's power in His name-call on Him! Collapse into His strong & loving arms pour yourself out & purge the death from inside of you. Jesus will anchor your soul-He pours His hope into you to hold your mind & heart when you can't. Jesus is with you...He's your hero Who saves & rejoices over you, renewing you with His love-celebrating over you with shouts of joy! Your dream is dead...but your hope isn't! Your hope is in Jesus Christ-He's your Redeemer & He lives! The same power, the Spirit of God, that raised the dead body of Jesus from the grave...lives in you! Grief is a painful process, but it's not bigger than Jesus' love. Remain in Him-He will remain in you, providing all you need-more than you ever imagined...if you will put your hope in Him alone. He is your living hope; He will never let go of you-so don't ever let go of Him. Trust Him with all your heart & soul-He will place a new dream in your heart. Now, rest in Him & let His love comfort you. (Heb 6:19, Zeph 3:17, Phil 2:9, Job 19:25, Rom 8:11, Jn 15:4, Pr 3:5-6) 1/14/14CIFL/LMM
