FROM DREAMING TO DOING

If you could do anything you wanted to do what would that be?  Do you ever just stop and dream anymore?  What would a future that you would create for yourself or someone you love or someone you don't even know look like?
 
It seems that for the majority of the people I know that they have stopped dreaming completely.  They are so caught up in the day to day monotony of life, that they have either forgotten how to dream or they have just given up on anything ever being different than it currently is for their life. I have to admit that many days, no most days, I fall into that group.
 
Either we have tried something spectacular before that didn't work or we just had the legs cut out from under us people who told us we were just being silly, we just stopped dreaming.  I find myself today wondering about a different future, and what it would take to see it fulfilled and come to be.
 
I wonder what it would be like if every child that was born got to live with their mommy and daddy until they were out of high school and then they all got to go to college.
I wonder what it would be like if there weren't any homeless people in my community, not because they didn't exist but because we took care of them.
I wonder what life would be like if every family was virtually debt free, except possibly for a mortgage.
I wonder what it would be like if everyone that I know, knew Jesus as a loving savior.
I wonder what it would be like if everyone who goes to church acted like they knew Jesus as a loving savior.
I wonder what it would be like if we never said that will never work. 
I wonder what it would be like if we started dreaming ... and then started doing ... hmmmmmm
