"dream one size bigger"
As I have been praying for our church, I keep sensing the Lord inviting us into something more—not more activity, but more faith. More trust. More willingness to believe Him beyond the limits of what feels safe or familiar.
Many of us have learned to dream within boundaries shaped by past experiences, disappointments, or even good stewardship. But God is gently calling us to dream one size bigger—to lift our eyes beyond what we think is possible and align our vision with what He is able to do. As author John Maxwell says, "Sometimes God gives us dreams that are one size too big so that we can grow into them.“
Scripture reminds us in Ephesians 3:20,
“Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us.”
Notice that Paul doesn’t say God does slightly more than we imagine—but immeasurably more. The limitation is not God’s power; it is often our expectation.
Throughout the Bible, God consistently worked through people who dared to believe beyond their circumstances. Abraham dreamed of descendants when he had none (Genesis 15:5). David saw a king when others saw a shepherd (1 Samuel 16:12–13). The disciples saw five loaves and two fish, but Jesus saw abundance (Matthew 14:19–21).
What might God want to do in your life, your family, or our church if we allowed ourselves to believe Him at His word?
I want to encourage you to pray boldly, give generously, serve joyfully, and expect faithfully. As Proverbs 29:18 tells us, “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” Let us be a people full of God-given vision—rooted in faith, guided by love, and empowered by the Holy Spirit.
May we not settle for what is comfortable when God is offering what is transformative. Let us dream one size bigger, trusting that the God who calls us is faithful to complete the work He has begun (Philippians 1:6).
With love and expectation,
Pastor
