Did you have a picture of what you thought your life would be? Are you struggling with the disappointment of still being single while all your friends are married? Do you wonder why you can’t have children while so many can? Do you not understand why a loved one was taken so early? These are all valid questions, we all have why moments. Today I want to unpack a little story that I heard long ago, one about a little girl who had a paper dream of what she wanted her life to look like but the reality was so much different. Dreams are not a bad thing but when they take precedent over God they have become a stumbling block. Today I want to talk about our paper dreams and what we need to do with them.

Let’s unpack her story using four words, words that have a valuable lesson to teach us.
