For the dream comes through much effort and the voice of a fool through many words
Ecclesiastes 5:3

Have you ever tried to have a conversation with someone who just won’t stop talking? They hardly even take a breath as they expound all their knowledge & opinion on just about everything that exists. In time you discover that all they do is talk and never really achieve anything.

Today’s verse calls these people fools. It doesn’t call them this because they talk a lot but rather because they don’t put effort into the things they’re talking about. They’re hoping you’ll make it all happen for them as they unfurl in words every part of their dream. This isn’t God’s way of making a dream happen.

Every dream that God gives us will take more than talk to achieve. It will take much effort, which means lots of hard work. It’s OK to talk about your dream but in the end, God gave you the dream and you’re going to have to put in the hard work to make it happen. If not, then the dream will die as it does in the mouth of a fool.

This week let’s make our God Dreams flourish. Rather than foolishly talking about it lets actually make something good happen for the dream. If your dream is to write a book then this week write a chapter. If it’s a song write the chorus. If it’s a business register the name. If it’s travel book a ticket and if its marriage then invite someone out for a coffee. Whatever the dream is that God’s given you make something happen for it this week and it’ll grow and become stronger than ever before!

“Dreams result from much WORK and a fool’s voice from many words.”
Ecclesiastes 5:3

The world is filled with talkers. Some people endlessly ramble on about their dream, never doing anything about it, just talking! They don’t do the hard WORK needed to make their dream a reality. They hope someone else will do it for them. These are the fools our bible talks about. No matter what our dream is we can only produce results through hard WORK.

This verse reminds us that when we WORK hard towards our dreams they’ll produce & please us. Every dream God places in our heart is unique & very precious. He placed it there for us to WORK on. The time to WORK on it is NOW! It’s time to make our dreams happen!

Every day God wants us to do something active & positive to grow our dream. It doesn’t matter if we do something major or minor as long as we’re doing something, every day, for the dream.

This week let’s do some work for our dream. Let’s become known for what we do rather than what we talk about doing. Preparation time is NEVER lost time so let’s get prepared. Maximize the precious resource of your time by investing some into your dream today!
