I'm reminded today to not stop dreaming, regardless of what might have happened in life. Through disappointment, pain, loss and betrayal, the follower of Jesus is called to keep on dreaming.

Not small dreams about the self, but big dreams about others; about the world. Not to fall naively for the dreams sold by self-motivated dream merchants who may sometimes disguise themselves as religious leaders. Not to buy into the offers of dream merchants who sell dreams that appeal to our own carnal desires for existential significance...

...but to dream the dream of God.
