God has a plan for every single person reading this. A real plan. A purposeful plan. A plan that includes redemption, calling, and transformation. So choose the dream. Hold it tightly. Live differently because you love Him—not because you’re trying to impress anyone. And don’t let anyone hate the dream out of you.

Lies feel comfortable, but they enslave. Truth feels uncomfortable, but it frees. And the most important truth you will ever face is what you do with Jesus Christ.

Years after David defeated Goliath, he found himself on the run from King Saul (see 1 Samuel 21). Hungry, tired, and desperate, he went to the priest at Nob. There he asked for a weapon—and the priest handed him Goliath’s sword. The very weapon meant to kill David was now placed in his hands. Only God can do that.
