Topic: Evaluating The Godliness Of A Hope Or Dream

To evaluate the godliness of a hope or dream, ask yourself the following questions. If my hope for a person, thing, or situation comes true, will anyone be hurt in any way, either now or in the future? In present day terminology, does my hope or dream result in a win-win situation for others and for me? The advantage of tailoring your future into a win-win situation cannot be underestimated. When you are able to show other people how they win, you win. If you adopt a hope or dream bringing hurt or defeat to others, eventually the hurt and defeat you spread around comes back to haunt you, bite you, and defeat you too. There is a saying, "What goes around, comes around." What you set in motion, if pointed in the direction of God's will, can be unstoppable. You may never live to see all the effects of what you do or how you live. However, hopes and dreams placed in the direction of God's will certainly do come true in His eternal scheme of things if we play by His rules.
