The Value of Imagination
Dreaming shapes your life. Dreaming shapes my life. Our
willingness to dream—or even our unwillingness—is going to shape our lives. The
way that we think is going to affect the way that we feel; and the way that we
feel will ultimately impact the way that we act.
This is why the writer says in Proverbs 23:7, “For as he
thinks within himself, so he is.” Dreams lead to thoughts, thoughts lead to
actions, and actions lead to our legacy. What kind of dreams are you dreaming?
You see, it doesn’t only matter that you dream, but that your dreams lead you
toward the kind of life God wants for you. Simply dreaming isn’t enough; to
truly live out your purpose, you need to dream God’s dreams for your life. This
is why it’s so important to get into His Word and learn more about His truth!
We can also see this by looking at our society. All the people
who did anything significant in history all did it on the backside of dreaming.
Albert Einstein said this: “Imagination is more important than knowledge. Logic
will get you from A to B; imagination will take you everywhere. There is no
limit to imagination. The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge, but
imagination.”
We see that the true sign of intelligence is not how much
you know, but whether or not you’re willing to dream. Dreaming is the beginning
of fulfilling your God-given purpose, and it’s also one of the things that
makes life worth living!
Don’t give up your imagination. In a world that tells us not
to dream, be courageous enough to keep dreaming. Shape your life by the dreams
that you dream—and in everything, seek God’s will for your dreams.
