“Most people die waiting! Yes, some go quickly-but for most of us we will die in bed-waiting!
Imagine yourself lying there, in bed and reflecting. Will you lie there with no regrets? Some regrets? Nothing but regrets?
The decisions you are making today are actually making the bed you will lie in while you wait to die.”
Wow, that’s quite morbid, right? But it might have gotten your attention. I want to suggest a book to you that I just started. It’s called Chazown, by Craig Groeschel.
Chazown is a Hebrew word meaning vision, dream, or revelation.
“Where there is no vision(chazown), the people perish.” Proverbs 29:18
Are you living your life with purpose and passion? What did God create you to do? What is your God given vision/dream?
What if your life changed the world even after you were dead?
What is your mission on this earth? What were you designed to do? Psalm 139:13-16
Do you have a desire to know what God designed you to do? Ask God to reveal it to you, and glorify Him with your life. How does living with focus, endurance, peace, and passion sound? This is a life lived knowing their chazown.
“God’s vision for your life is bigger and better than you’ve had the courage to even hope for. Your God is that good. That strong. And He loves you that much.”
“Are you willing to let God disturb you with dreams so big that you don’t know how they’ll be accomplished?” I love that question!!!!
I pray that this small taste of the book will spark in you a desire to know God’s vision for your life. Start praying about it, ask God to disturb you!! I have only read the first chapter-I can’t wait to see what God shows me. Maybe you will want to read it also.
