{once upon a time} today.

Once upon a time, 

the world was yours for the taking.

You could be anyone

and do anything.

Anything.

The future was without limits.

There were no obstacles. 

The world was your oyster. 

Was. 

Sometimes we believe the was.

We buy into the thought that those days

~those possibilities~

have passed us. 

That we could have had adventures. 

Could have had. 

But 

then there's today. 

This seemingly endless streaming of seconds. 

That turn into minutes

that flow into hours.

This day could be

yours for the taking.

God has given you a moment. 

Here. Now.

Why not speak your big dreams 

to the bigger God

and agree that an adventure needs to 

start today?

Don't you think He has plans for you today?

You can count on it.

Why not stop and tell Him 

of your dreams and hopes

and whisper in His ear that maybe you've bought into the 

lie that the days of possibility have passed you by?

And ask Him what He has in mind for you 

today.

And then, 

with your eyes set on the horizon,

and once-upon-a-time hopefulness flooding your heart,

move.

And be the person that God 

has made you to be 

~big dreams and all~

today.

So be content with who you are, 

and don't put on airs.

God's strong hand is on you, 

he'll promote you at the right time. 

Live carefree before God; 

he is most careful with you. 

~1 Peter 5:6-7

Many blessings,
