Limitless Life



Limitless Life by Derwin L. Gray

I found myself really wanting to meet Derwin L. Gray the more I read. His heart walked me through the chapters and he shared a message worth reading the whole book to get:
"Only God knows how many dreams have been killed at the altar of fear. It must break His heart to see dreams He has placed in so many people's hearts go unrealized because we have more faith in fear than in Him." Powerful!

I loved the point he shares on our courage being as big as our belief in God!

The only reason I didn't give this book five stars is because after the first couple or few chapters and until the last two or so chapters... it me awhile to get through. I didn't connect deeply enough with it to really look forward to reading it every time I opened it. 

The last part is as good as the first though and the truth in it is something I used to inspire my husband. He has always told me to stop putting human ties on dreams because God is big enough to make them come true far beyond what we see. Along the way, he kind of tucked that belief in a stack of bills somewhere and forgot what they looked like. 
He was sharing something he wanted to do concerning a big project he is doing for our home. It dawned on me while he was talking and later ... I had to go tell him to not put boundaries around his dreams... that God can do anything! 
After a day of thinking about it, he came back and said that I was right. He also started dreaming again!
I'll close this with one more quote:

"How many people woke up this morning hating their jobs? How many people only pursue certain jobs because of the money they will make? Life is too sort, and you are too important to God and His plans to occuy earth with His kingdom, for you to simply 'go to work.' " He placed a song in your heart that He wants you to dance to."
