"There will be bitter disappointments in life. People will drop the ball, lead you astray, abandon you, and worse. You will be disappointed with God. But if you want to reach your dreams, you must become an expert in releasing disappointments." ~ Tommy Barnett, Reaching Your Dreams, Page 40, Paragraph 3.
There were many new ideas presented in this book in respect to reaching our dreams. Some of the ideas that Tommy Barnett counsels his readers on is how we can take our dreams to God in prayer. He says that God is interested in our dreams and wants us to talk to Him about them. Also, a new idea that you will not find in secular books is the role of the Holy Spirit in reaching your dreams. The Holy Spirit can become our senior partner, as we pursue our dreams. He can lead us and guide us in the fulfillment our dreams.
One of the best tools I found in this book is that Tommy Barnett asks questions throughout this book with room to write down your reflections and answers. I encourage you to do these exercises, as it will help you to dig deep into your heart to find the answers to these questions. Do not merely skip over these exercises and rob yourself.
