Dreaming for Derek (my wake up call)

We have had many speakers in the DTS so far, and all have been very good. Last we had a speaker come in called Frans Conje. He talked about our dreams and passions.
When I started staffing this DTS, I was really crying out to God to redefine my dreams, my passions and what He wanted me to do. Frans came in and only spoke for three mornings, and opened up a can of worms for me. Next steps, new ideas, what passions aren't mine, and what I want to do. So God has been speaking to me about the future and making it mine and pursue MY dreams.

Frans in his 30's decided he wanted to be a director. He had been working with sports ministry for along time, and than God gave Him something totally out of the box. He directed the movie "faith like potatoes" and the movie "Hansie" (which was his brother). But he did this all without any idea what he was doing at first, God just told him to do it and He created great movies. I feel like it was encouragement for me to think outside the box and do what I want to do. That with God passions aren't impossible, if i wanted to be a president (not saying I want to be) but with God I could do that.

Anyways, just an update on what I have been learning and what He has been speaking to me this last week.
