Vision Fulfilled

Just a few days ago, I realized that a vision that I had while at a Young Adult gathering at my old church, had been fulfilled in one way or another. 

First let me tell you what the vision was.  When I was praying and worshiping the Lord, He gave me a vision.  As I was receiving the vision, I was walking in a straight line and could see a square that looked like the out of bounds lines of a basketball court.  Then I looked over at the front row of chairs and they looked like two benches, one for each team.  Then I noticed that the pulpit was placed in the middle of the square.  Finally we use to have flags all around our sanctuary and two flags lined up perfectly so that they represented two basketball hoops.  Then I felt the Lord say to me that I would be a basketball coach and coach my basketball team on biblical principles.  Ever since that day, I have held on to my faith that the Lord would make this vision come true.

Now lets fast forward a few years, up until November 2014.  I sent an e-mail to a head girls basketball coach at one of the local high schools in Spokane, asking for the opportunity to volunteer with the basketball program that year just to gain experience.  That e-mail was sent to the athletic director who contacted me, then interviewed me and then offered me a job.  That job was the JV girl's head basketball coach.  The school, was Northwest Christian Schools.  A school that thrives in educating kids with a Christian/Biblical education. 

So here I was fulfilling the vision that God gave to me those years ago.  I was a head coach, coaching a team that was based on biblical values.  I wish I could have realized it then, but am grateful to have realized it at all.  I am amazed at how faithful God truly is on keeping His promises to His people.  I am thankful that He doesn't give up on us either.

So that me ask you this, if God has given you a vision, or dream and it hasn't come true yet, keep waiting because His timing is perfect.  He will make it come true.  Don't worry.  Now, if God hasn't given you a vision or dream, ask Him for one and He will give it to you.  They are amazing and I am glad that He showed one to me.  God is truly awesome!!!  Just saying!!!
