"The depth and quality of leadership is not so much found in how well we lead others to reach
their goals and dreams in life - as it is about leading them to never give up in their pursuit of them."
-- Pal Madden, Y NOT?
God is the primary giver of visions and dreams. Dreams are born from the passions deeply embedded in our lives. They flow from the Spirit, divinely inspire us, and add purpose to life. The ups and downs experienced in the journey help mold the character of Christ into our lives.
As you reach for your dreams stay clear of discouragers. A discourager holds others back. Some work with others to keep you from reaching your dreams. Out of their insecurity and self centered ambition they may even try to derail or sabotage your dreams. Discouragers have given up on their own dreams. Sadly, their life has lost its vision. They are held at bay by the fear of failure, or making a mistake. When, in fact, mistakes and setbacks, (failures), are the stepping stones upon which our dreams are built.
On the other hand, God is an Encourager. Stay close to Him. He leads, guides, and directs us to persevere, be tenacious, and never give up on our Christ centered dreams. He leads us to join with others who encourage us, keep us moving forward, and on the path to achievement.
Dream It Anyway!
In the hit song, "Anyway", Martina McBride sings these words, "You can chase a dream that seems so out of reach, and you know might not ever come your way...Dream It Anyway!" At Y NOT?, we agree. Here, we join together to nourish each other's dreams in the hope we'll see them achieved.
To help you along we provide a structure to assist you in building your dreams. We encourage you to seek, explore, develop, build, and chase your dreams for the Glory of God. Build to whatever heights your faith, desires, talents, and abilities will take you. The sky is truly your only limit.
Finally, remember this. Regardless of how small or large you think your dreams maybe, there is no such thing as a dream too small or too large in the eyes of God. And, whether or not you think your dreams will ever come true - Dream them Anyway!

No Such Thing As A Broken Dream
Is there such a thing as a broken dream? Not in the child of God. What we think of as a broken dream is nothing more than what we receive when we don't get what we want at the time we want it. Instead, we receive a...broken heart.
A broken heart can be a good thing. It always leads down one of two paths. We choose the path. A path to disillusionment and self pity, or a path to the bosom of our Father in heaven. If we choose our Father in heaven over self pity and disillusionment, we will find the dream God has for us. That is, to be forever found at the center of His will.
And, although a broken heart can lead to the center of God's will - His will never leads us to a broken dream. For Christ centered visions and dreams are never ending, eternal journeys. Broken hearts, although painful, are the stops along life's road that refine our dreams, and prepare us for the steps ahead. These steps are used by God to lead us onward and upward to the ultimate dream. The dream that Christ will abundantly live in, through, and out of our lives. It's a dream we all can share. It's a dream that can only be broken by us. It's a dream that can live forever.
