A Story To Tell.

"But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light..."
1 Peter 2:9

It all started with three words - Chosen Generation Stand. As i continued on in my everyday life these words kept on resonating within my mind over and over again. I could not quiet it down. I could not drain it out with other thoughts. I could not resist the urge to discover what these words meant. Little did i know that these three words would change the rest of my life.

So often when we ask God to speak to us we expect something BIG, like a thunderous voice from heaven that makes the whole earth tremble or an angel to spontaneously appear in a bright aurora of light. However more often than not God speaks to us in the simple. In the mundane. In the small things that otherwise we would consider insignificant. For me, it was in three words by which God would spark a dream in my heart.

This verse (1 Peter 2:9) was what confirmed that still small voice in my mind and heart. As each day, month and year has gone by my dream has grown bigger. It now has become of somewhat importance to me which i cannot ignore nor delay.

As I've gotten closer to the year which i am convinced God has planned to launch this dream the thought of impossibility has arisen, however, at the very same time the truth that what God promises, He will deliver has been continually reinforced. Each day it seems as though the dream gets bigger and bigger and the possibilities get smaller but i know God is faithful.

My dream is not one to be dreamt alone. It's a dream that stretches across many generations, cultures, ages, religions and the like. It is a dream like no other. A dream that will eradicate the misconception of grace and begin to transform lives through the promises of God.

We all have a story to tell and i want the world to hear it.
