It's More Than Just a Good Idea



My father-in-law gave me this book for my birthday and it is really hitting home. I am realizing that I am more of a visionary than I thought. I am only six chapters in but already it is worth the read.

Here’s a few simple things that have made a big impact in me:

*Most if not all biblical visionaries experienced a “desert” period in pursuit of their vision. We are in Abilene!

*The wait refines the vision and the visionary. I guess that’s why it hurts sometimes.

*To focus on the “how” (how things will come together) of the vision instead of the “giver” of the vision would be counterproductive.
