Keep moving!

The owner of my gym told me about a reoccurring dream. The image was of him going through a desert with carcasses on either side of a long straight road. The road itself was clear. After many miles he came to an impenetrable black wall that soared into the sky, blocking his progress.

At that point he questioned God and said, "Lord, there's no way I can get past this wall." Then he turned around to see God standing there with him.

In an instant, he was standing on top of the wall looking out into a beautiful oasis. Asking for an explanation, the Lord told him that the carcasses on the road were dreams that people gave up. Places where people quit. He simply had to keep going forward. Moving and never giving up. Keep advancing.

Later on the same day I started reading the Psalms out loud and soon came to Psalm 18:28-29.

"You, Lord, keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light. With your help I can advance against a troop; with my God I can scale a wall."

You are not alone.

Keep moving!!
