Dream Big" is a beautiful encouraging poem inspired by the Holy Spirit that the Lord blessed me with one day.
In God's word He says through the apostle Paul, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."( Philippians 4:13)

Fortunately, we serve a wonderful God of mercy and grace who loves each of us despite our flaws and weaknesses.
