Put Your Fancy Dress On
This is me, somewhere around the age of 4 or 5 in my “fancy dress.” Truth is… this is nothing more than a nightgown that I somehow determined was my fancy dress. When I put my fancy dress on I believed it transformed me into this amazing entertainer, wowing the crowds with my vocal prowess… and my gorgeous dress (of course).
This was back in the day when I still dreamed… uninhibited. I wasn’t insecure, self-conscious or reserved. It never cross my mind that others would question whether I could achieve my dreams.
I believed that I could be anything, do anything, and change everything if I wanted to.
But somewhere along the way I quit putting my fancy dress on. I quit dreaming. I quit believing.
I’m not suggesting that every fancy dress dream was God’s design for my life, but when we quit dreaming I believe we suffocate the giftedness that God has placed within us. We lose the freedom of discovering God’s design and plan for our lives.
It’s time to put our fancy dresses back on. It’s time to dream again uninhibited. It’s time to discover how God has wired you, designed you and inspired you!
Join us Friday, February 26th for our next Cultivate Her event where we’ll be talking about
“Dream Anatomy – Creating the structure to realize your dreams”.

It’s time to DREAM!
Just for fun… did you have a favorite outfit when you were a child that helped you dream big dreams? What was it?

Great pic!! Oharah thought it was fantastic!!

Are you somehow really Maddie's mom?
Of course, she loves to sing in her fancy dress – you'd get a kick out of watching her. I love to watch her, but also realize that there will come a day when she will be more self aware and maybe even embarrassed by her uninhibitedness. I dread that day. I love listening to both her and Alex dream big! Great post!
