Can I be honest? At this stage in life, I sometimes feel like the clock is ticking louder than ever. And family health challenges this year have added to the quiet pressure of time.  

I often reflect: How much time do I truly have left to manifest the dreams God planted in me years ago? 

One of those dreams is to write a book series  — not for my glory, but for His. I know God has called me to write it. Yet, it’s been slow going, and at times I catch myself thinking, “Maybe it’s too late.”

But here’s what I’m learning: Those thoughts aren’t the end of the story. They’re simply reminders that dreams don’t come with an expiration date when they’re planted by God. What feels “too late” to us is often right on time with God. And, ultimately, it’s about His time – not ours.

Here’s the truth I’m holding onto: It’s not too late, and neither am I. And neither are you . . .

. . . who dreams of creating

. . . who dreams of traveling 

. . . who dreams of going back to school

. . . who dreams of leading

. . . who dreams of loving and being loved

. . . who dreams of living life more fully

Whatever your dream, the time you have is still enough for God to work wonders through you.

So, if you’ve ever felt the weight of time pressing down on your dreams, take heart. Our calendars and clocks don’t limit God. What He plants in us, He waters in His perfect season. If we’re on this side of eternity, we can still begin, pick back up, or trust Him to carry the dream through. 

It’s not too late, friends. Onward we go, one step at a time. And, I’m rooting for you and for me along the way.
