Most people live their lives struggling to find their dream. And many who find theirs press in even harder to live it. As Christians we should be living the dream of a lifetime, free from stress and worry. Sadly, this is rare.

You will never be free to live your dream until you accept and move in your calling from God.

God has a plan for the church, but more specifically, God has a plan for you. It is custom-made for you and your giftings. No one else can do what God wants you to do, the way He wants you to do it. You are one-of-a-kind with a calling from God that is unique. He gifted you for a purpose.

You are God's first choice. If you don't do what God wants you to do, then He will be forced to go to plan B. Don't resist God's plan because of fear that you will live life unsatisfied. God's plan always includes the desires of your heart.

We must be led by the Holy Spirit. When we do not allow the Spirit to guide us, we fall under great stress from lack of direction. Only a Spirit-led life will be at peace. Peace follows obedience.

So, if you are hurting and feel stretched, yield to God's plan. God doesn't change His mind. He has not forgotten you.

"For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable." (Romans 11:29)
