Walking in Obedience: What is Your Dream?

If you haven’t read the first five posts in this series, I really recommend you read them before you read this post (because it will make more sense). You can find the first post by clicking HERE.

 

Today is my final post in this series – Walking in Obedience. Today I want to challenge you to discover and pursue your dream wholeheartedly.

Where are you at in the dreaming process? Are you asking God for a dream? Are you in the honeymoon stage? Are you at the point where you want to give up and be mad at the Lord? Or are you walking in obedience – even though you don’t understand what God’s doing? It doesn’t matter who you are, I know every one of you is at some stage of this process.

We are all on a journey, heading toward our God dreams.

Somewhere along the line did you choose to take the “easy way”, and now you feel more lost and alone than ever?

Are you wandering, wondering when God will give you a dream?

Are you angry with the Lord because your dream didn’t turn out the way you thought it would?

Have you completely turned your back on the Lord, and you’re trying to do it on your own now?

It doesn’t matter where you are at in the process, you need to know that you are not alone, we are all in this together! And Most importantly you need to know – beyond the shadow of a doubt – that the Lord is walking with you, even if you feel like you’ve lost touch with Him.

If you’re at the beginning stages of dreaming with God, but you don’t know what your dream is, a good place to start is to ask Him, “What breaks your heart?”. Spend quiet time with Him, or ask Him to speak to you through worship, and I know He will speak to you.

If you’re heart is in it, I know He will speak to you. He will give you a dream, and you’ll get to start your dream journey with Him. It’s going to be amazing at times, and extremely hard at times, but I promise you, in the end it is going to be worth it.

You will come out stronger, braver, healed and a friend of God’s.

I know I’ve covered a lot in this series, but as it concludes, I want you to ask yourself these questions. Take some time over the next few days and invite the Lord’s presence to sit with you and write down the answers to these questions –

  1. What is your dream?
  2. If you don’t feel like you have a dream, ask God to give you one. Keep praying and asking Him, until He gives you one. He is a dreamer so you probably won’t have to wait long. 😉
  3. If you already have a God dream, where are you at on the journey?
  4. Are you in the stage where God is breaking your heart? If so, pray that God will start unfolding your dream, in His perfect timing.
  5. Are you in the “honeymoon stage”? Celebrate this part of the journey but pray protection over you, and your family, for what is coming. Ask God to give you the courage and strength to choose obedience. Ask Him to give you wisdom to know how to face each situation, the way He would face it.
  6. Have you already taken the “easy way”? If so, it’s not too late! Repent of your anger, frustration (whatever you’re feeling), and hand it over to the Lord. It’s never to late to pick your dream back up, choose obedience and to trust the Lord.
  7. Have you chosen obedience from the beginning? If you did, what are you struggling with? Ask the Lord to encourage you and give you strength. Also ask Him to bring people into your life to encourage you, lift you up and support you when you are tired.
You don’t have to do this on your own!

The enemy wants you to think you are all alone but it’s so important that you don’t listen to his lies! Surround yourself with friends and/or family that love you and support you. We need to learn how to walk with one another, encourage one another and have grace for one another, because every one of us is at some point in this process, so walk with one another, instead of fighting, or judging each other because their story doesn’t look the same as ours.

It doesn't matter who you are, every one of you is at some stage in the process of dreaming with God. We are all on a journey, heading toward our God dreams, so let's learn to walk together instead of tearing each other down. | Faith-Fullness.net

As I end this series, my prayer for you is that you would know your dream, follow your dream wholeheartedly, grow deeper in your relationship with the Lord through the journey, that you would trust Him with every part of your life and that you would be fully given to Him, as you walk and dream with Him.

    I don’t know what I would do without friends walking with me through the journey. To point out things that I don’t see, cry with me, and encourage me that it is worth it. Thank you for being one of those friends to me.

    God has given me dreams through my real life nightmares. I was molested as a young child and it continued for quite a while.
    I never talked about it to anyone until I was in my forties. Soon after that, my father died and within 5 months I was robbed at gun point in the store I worked at. I was working by myself and it lasted over an hour. At that time I realized that God could use me to encourage others and give them God’s strength and God’s Word to get them through life’s troubles
    .Then in 2001 my daughter Jamie was murdered. It took me 7 years to turn myself back upright. God never left me and I never left Him but there were times he carried me. He taught me so much through the dark time and he gave me the dream of helping others to see or seek for God’s light when something so big it takes you away from living. God has lead me to some who needs encouragement but since we’ve moved to Cottonwood I have not done much at all.
    I study God’s word, have my prayer time but I have not asked again what my dream is or where God wants me. I know God did not create these hardships in my life but I feel like I’m afraid to ask because I don’t know if or what I might go through to see God’s plan
    . I do know I have all the faith in God to do anything, as long as I leave “myself” out of it and let God use me.
    Thank you for your prayers and looking forward to the next series of your blog.

Knowing the truth is the only way to find freedom. Blaming those around us leads to isolation and pain, which only reiterates the lies we're believing. Blaming the enemy exposes his schemes, and opens our eyes to reality. | Faith-Fullness.net

So proud of our girl! A quick weekend trip to the So proud of our girl! A quick weekend trip to the Reno T&T gymnastics competition, resulted in 2 medals for Malea!! A bronze in Tumble Track and a silver in Double Mini. 
We also discovered Emilia has mad skills at Fuze ball, and she scooped Matt. 🤣 
We are proud parents, Malea now has 2 competitions under her belt, and 4 metals to show for it! 👏🏻 👊🏻👏🏻
#MaleaElizabeth
I never post political stuff but Zelensky's speech I never post political stuff but Zelensky's speech this morning, broke my heart. I don't understand how we are not doing something to help these people out. I know if we had someone bombing our country, we would demand help from others, how can we just sit back and watch this happens. My heart is breaking for President Zelensky and the burden he's carrying right now. If you haven't watched the speech from this morning, please take the time to watch it, it's powerful, and heartbreaking. 

"Today my age stopped when the hearts of more than 100 children stopped beating. I see no sense in life, if it means it cannot stop the deaths." - Zelensky
Day 8 - Our last day. 😢 After packing we headed Day 8 - Our last day. 😢 After packing we headed back to Makena beach to take in our last waves, and Malea found some big ones. 
🌊
After a couple hours we said our goodbyes to the waves (and the chickens at the beach) and as we walked away I wondered if it would be another 20 years until I get to be here, and how much life has happened since I had been there last. It really is amazing how time flies. 
🌊
Next we went back into Kihei for lunch, some last minute shopping, and a must-stop, for me, Cones on Kihei, where my cousin worked when we lived here. The smell of the  freshly made cones took me right back, and they still had my favorite flavor!! It was fun to get to share this delicious treat with the girls. 
🌊
Then it was back to the condo to get cleaned up and ready to leave. I am so grateful for our time here, the hours at the beach, the beautiful meals, and watching how much the girls loved so many of the things I love about this island. I hope we get to come back but even if we don’t, my heart is full and I am thankful I got to return and relive/revisit so many things from, what feels like, a lifetime ago. Goodbye Maui! 
@mmoseley15 @emilia_boehmer #MaleaElizabeth
Day 7 - Our last full day was probably one of my f Day 7 - Our last full day was probably one of my favorites with a hike out in the lava fields, then snorkeling with Malea, and views of some bright yellow fish before we left. 
🐠
Then we headed into town and had the best sandwiches at @808deli. After lunch the girls were exhausted so we dropped them off and Matt and I walked the beach path in Wailea. We saw lots of whales jumping and even some turtles in the reef. We walked the beach and took in all the beautiful views of this wonderful island. 
🌊 
Next we picked up the girls and headed to Makena beach for some more beach time. The girls played in the waves until we had to pull them from them, so we could go get ready for our luau. 
🌊
We hit the road to Lahaina and headed to the @oldlahainaluau. This was such a good luau, ran like a well oiled machine with stellar service and beautiful dancing, sunsets and the best mocktails of the trip (the girls were in Heaven). 
🌊
Trying not to think about leaving tomorrow, but taking in all the stars and crashing waves, while I still can. 
@mmoseley15 @emilia_boehmer #MaleaElizabeth
Day 6 - Lots of birthday celebration! Malea turned Day 6 - Lots of birthday celebration! Malea turned 13 and we celebrated with a little party in the morning, then headed to the waves. 
🥳
We went back to the cove, where the girls surfed for hours and caught lots of waves. Then we had lunch at a beautiful, and delicious food truck park, set in a canopy of trees. 
🥳
Then it was back up the condo for some out of the sun rest time, and then, of course, we finished out the day at Makena beach, where the girls played in the waves until we had to leave to get ready for dinner. 
🥳
We celebrated in Lahaina with ribs, for my rib girl, and then of course, Hula Pie. 😋 
🥳
It was the best way to celebrate our baby girl turning 13, and a birthday I’m sure she will always remember. 
@mmoseley15 @emilia_boehmer #MaleaElizabeth
Happy 13th birthday to one of my most favorite peo Happy 13th birthday to one of my most favorite people ever. Malea, since the day you were born you have been such a blessing. You love big, you love unconditionally, you live large and you are an over-comer. 
💜
I have learned so much from you, you make me a better person, and I can’t wait to see what this next year has in store for you! Wuv you baby girl!!! 
#MaleaElizabeth
Day 5 - Started the morning with the girls surfing Day 5 - Started the morning with the girls surfing the cove, where I learned to surf. There were tons of other people there taking lessons but the girls had a blast, and caught tons of waves. Malea is officially hooked on surfing. Yay!! 🏄‍♀️ 
🌊
After hours of surfing we headed back to the house for some down time, and then back to Makena Beach to close out the day playing in the waves, and drinking margaritas to celebrate margarita day. 
🌊
We enjoyed a beautiful sunset, and an incredible meal at Hotel Wailea then headed home and were surprised by fireworks! What a perfect way to spend Malea’s birthday eve. 
🌊
Matt and I decorated before bed and then I laid in bed thinking about where I was 12 years ago and how the best gift I’ve ever received came at 11:29pm the next evening. 
@mmoseley15 @emilia_boehmer #MaleaElizabeth
Day 4 - Started the day with worship, and our frie Day 4 - Started the day with worship, and our friend’s baptism, at the beach, which was followed by celebration, even by the whales. 
🌊
After the baptisms we picked up surfboards and headed to the waves. It was low tide, so the waves were small, but the girls had a blast and we even got to see more whales.
🌊
Then we headed back to Makena Beach, for some more wave time and found so many chickens! 🐓 8 roosters to be exact ( Malea counted them). 
🌊
Next headed home, and enjoyed wine on the patio, which has been Matt and my afternoon tradition, since we got here. 
🌊
After getting ready for dinner, we did something we used to do, almost every night when we lived here, and watched the sunset from the rock wall, in Kihei across from where we lived. It was so fun getting to experience the magic of the sun setting over the Pacific coast, with my family. 
🌊
After dinner we met up with our friends to talk about the baptism and catch up since we haven’t hung out in awhile. We ended up back at our place, talking late into the night. I am so grateful for how much the Lord has done in all of our lives since we met a few years ago. 
🌊
Tomorrow more surfing and more sun. Maui perfection. 
#MaleaElizabeth @mmoseley15 @emilia_boehmer
Day 3 - Started with a 3.4 mile run, with @mmosele Day 3 - Started with a 3.4 mile run, with @mmoseley15, and lots of beautiful views. 
🌊
It was too windy to surf today so instead we headed to Lahaina for lunch (a very messy lunch for my little rib lover) and some shopping.  We scouted out beaches on the way home, and stopped for some fresh fruit at the roadside stand. 
🌊 
Everyone was exhausted but we needed some beach time so we finished up the day with the waves at Wailea beach and another beautiful sunset. 
🌊
Excited because tomorrow we finally surf! 🏄‍♀️ 
#MaleaElizabeth @emilia_boehmer
Day 2- my favorite beach, Makena beach. We used to Day 2- my favorite beach, Makena beach. We used to spend hours, and days here, so it was a dream come true to get to spend hours in the waves and on the beach with Matt and Malea yesterday. It’s as beautiful as I remember it and I was so thankful to be back. 
🌊
After hours of beach time it was a food truck lunch, and time to head into Kihei, my old stomping grounds. We took the girls to the open market where they shopped and shopped, then we ended with shaved ice. 
🌊
The day ended with another beautiful sunset and dinner at MonkeyPod Kitchen, with the best Mai Tais we’ve had and Malea trying to convince Emilia to let her teach her how to cube. 🤣
🌊
Tomorrow we surf. 🤗 🏄‍♀️ 
@mmoseley15 @emilia_boehmer #MaleaElizabeth
Day 1 (yesterday)- A few thankful tears were shed Day 1 (yesterday)- A few thankful tears were shed when I finally got to sit down in my plane seat, and a huge sigh of relief that we were finally on our way. 
🌊 
It has been 19 years since I’ve been to Maui and I expected so many changes, which some of it has, but so much is also the same, including places we worked and a few favorite spots. 
🌊
But the best part was getting to be here with my family—watch the girls disappear to find the pool, and the beach, and the smiles on their faces as the realization sunk in that we were actually here!! 
🌊
Today I am thank for @mmoseley15 bringing me back here, beautiful sunsets, the Maui air, and upcoming beach time with my family! 
#MaleaElizabeth @mmoseley15 @emilia_boehmer
Not exactly how I planned to spend my day. 😵‍ Not exactly how I planned to spend my day. 😵‍💫 Thankful for the team at Prestige for sewing the top of my thumb back on. Luckily none of it ended up in the soup. 😬🤣
Saying goodbye (for now), last night, to these bea Saying goodbye (for now), last night, to these beautiful people, was one of the hardest things I’ve done in a long time. The neighbors who showed up with brownies the first time we met them, who became friends, who quickly turned into family—secondary parents to Matt and I,  and grandparents to Malea. 
💛
I have grieved and cried whenever I think about them leaving, for weeks, because I don’t know what it will be like without them. They have always been there for us, supported us, asked us how we are doing, even on our darkest days, and they have loved us and cheered us on, encouraged us to keep going because it will all be worth it in the end. 
💛
I will never hear the end of how terrible it was we decided to move to Palo Cedro and “abandon them”, but that didn’t discourage them from showing up with homemade birthday goodies and driving “all the way to the other side of the river” to stop by and see what we’ve been up to, and encourage us with how well we are living out our dream here on our farmstead. 
💛
I am honored they chose to spend their last night with us (even though technically we were 2nd choice 😉) but it was exactly what I needed. Bev, of course brought gifts that spoke to our hearts, and we reminisced, laughed and I think everyone cried at some point. 
💛
Dear friends I am excited for your new adventure, I can’t wait to hear where we need to go next, I can’t wait to “visit” Europe through your pictures, but please don’t forget to come home, you will be missed!!! 💛💛💛
We worked hard this weekend. 💪🏻 Our amazing We worked hard this weekend. 💪🏻 Our amazing house church showed up and helped us run all the electrical in the back garage—can lights, outlets, fans, exterior lights, etc! We finished so quickly that one couple decided to stay and help us frame out the storage room. 👏🏻
Today Matt and I added the door and a few other things, so now the room is ready for sheetrock! 👊🏻 A weekend of hard work and it ended with a beautiful sunset. Game room should be done in the next couple of months. 🙌🏻

Such a fun weekend away to Mt. Shasta, to celebrat Such a fun weekend away to Mt. Shasta, to celebrate Matt’s birthday. 
I am thankful for the beautiful place we live, friends who are as ridiculous as we are, amazing food, hilarious games, and most importantly my husband—who is definitely with celebrating.

So this happened. 🏦 I still can’t even beli So this happened. 
🏦 
I still can’t even believe it. I am so thankful to finally be able to talk about this with people, because I am so proud of Matt! 
🏦 
When I first met Matt he told me his dream was to be the president of a bank someday, and here we are, in 6 months he will be. I am so proud of how hard he has worked to get to this place, never taking the easy way, always taking the strategic path, even if it meant taking less pay, a lower title, or doing the work of multiple people to make sure something got done well. 
🏦 
This is a dream come true, a promise of the Lord fulfilled, and I can’t wait to see what this next season holds for us. 
Congratulations Matt, you deserve this, and thank you Jeff, for paving the way, and being such an incredible boss, leader, and mentor for Matt.
