Are You Going to Dream or Are You Going to Climb?

Sometimes I hear people talking about waiting on God. God has made it very plain that waiting is what we need to do, then wait. However, most of the time we are just trying to spiritualize our reluctance to take action. I get this strong feeling that God is probably waiting on them.

I wrote a blog about how I went from a 6th-grade flunky who always struggled academically to a student that excelled in a Master’s program with a 4.0 GPA.
