Dream Home


Everyone likes to imagine what their dream home might look like. I actually think I found it. Kellie and I were in a home of some great friends of ours the other day that was absolutely the most fabulous my-kind-of-house that I have ever been in--ever! In fact, I don't think I would have changed a thing. I couldn't have dreamed up this home any better. The only change I could possibly make to it would be for us to be living in that house now ourselves! Seriously, it would take me too long to describe everything I loved about this house (Kellie and I both loved it). This gem of a home was a product of some fantastic dreaming and vision.

Dreams. It's important to have some dreaming time, in general. To think ahead, plan, set some goals for the future....even wait for God to speak to your heart about something. Will your new home together be a place that is receptive to dreaming? And by the way, what are those dreams that each of you have? Do you know? For instance, if I was going to ask you what your most important dreams in life were, how would you respond? This is a great question for you to ask each other. You might be surprised how much it would reveal about what's to come.

You don't want to be far down the highway of married life having never asked the other what their deepest desires or dreams are. So, the next time you're out to dinner with your fiance....ask each other that question. What special dream do you hope to see come true some day? And really take the time to listen to what's being said.
I would love to hear some of your responses.
