big.

Hey, You.

The one wondering if it's safe to dream anymore.

The one who has to swat discouragement away like a pesky fly.

I know those feelings so well. 

So I just want to lean in and whisper this hard truth. To all of us.

The riskiest thing we can do is not dream.

The only way to avoid making mistakes is not to do anything- and that's the biggest mistake of all.

The only way to avoid being hurt is to never love- and a life without love is the deepest wound a heart can have.

The things that help us feel safe are the same things that can put us at the greatest risk.

You are braver, stronger, and more capable than you know.

And the God you serve is big.

... and I mean really big.

Dream, friends.

Dream today. Dream tomorrow.

Dream until the day you die.

... and then discover that you've done something pretty radical and incredible and inspiring-

you've really lived. 

Dreaming with you,
Lyss
