The famous Henry David Thoreau wrote:
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.
Live the life you have imagined.
That’s not a biblical way of putting it but it is a good way to lay hold of God’s love and purpose for your life.
I will soon by sixty-nine years old. I can now confidently say that I have not lived every part of my life in the way I wish I had. Who can? But I say I have confidently moved in the direction of my dreams. I have lived a life than very close to what I imagined as a young man in college and my twenties. I am satisfied, deeply so. I have made mistakes but I have learned from them, or so I hope.
In the end I am at peace with God, my wife, my children, grandchildren and my friends. Those who are not at peace with me, so far is it is within me, I have tried to be at peace with them. I have enemies but I love them. I have friends too, a lot of them. I could not have confidently moved toward my dreams without so many dear and true friends.
Live your life for God’s glory, for real purpose. Move confidently toward his love and rest in his grace. He is good, all the time.
