Dream Creations Inspiration: Savor the Little Moments in Life
Life is full of little moments of joy but sometimes we miss them in a rush or in pursuit of the “bigger and better.” Take time to appreciate and savor the little moments with your family and in the seemingly insignificant moments of life – when you relax and take the time to enjoy them you’ll be surprised at just how much more beautiful and sweeter those moments will be. – Julene Dreamfleur

HeartBlooms – Don’t Miss Those “Ones”
Often we seek out crowds to influence but sometimes there could be one person placed directly in your path who you can impact through love; don’t miss those “ones” around you. The difference could be deeper, truer, longer lasting.
You never know how much influence you may have on one person with your words and actions…

My Interview With Jenna Lucado Bishop – Dreaming On In Life & Faith
”If you are going through a dry time, stop, take a deep breath, and smile. God is using ALL things, even “darker” days, for His good. He is molding and shaping your heart. You are a constant work in progress.” – Jenna Lucado Bishop.
Recently on Dream in Soul I interviewed Jenna Lucado Bishop who took the time to answer some of my questions on dreams and purpose. I was so blessed by her encouragement and what she shared:
In the latest SOAR interview Jenna Lucado Bishop talks about her role on the Revolve Tour for teen girls and gives advice on God-given dreams and serving Him right where you are…
With realness and encouragement Jenna Lucado Bishop shares her heart with young women around the country, relating to their everyday questions and delving into the truth of God’s word with them. Whether speaking on stage at The Revolve Tour, a faith and fun-filled weekend for teen girls, or co-authoring books with her father, best-selling author and speaker Max Lucado, Jenna’s passion for God is apparent and inspiring, and her energy and the warmth of her personality are inviting. In this interview Jenna shares how she was led to get involved with The Revolve Tour and gives advice for dreaming on in God and serving Him right where we are, even in uncertain times:
Interview by SOAR’s Editor Julene Fleurmond (A special thank you to the Revolve Tour staff for the interview!)
SOAR: I wanted to start off by asking what led you to be involved with The Revolve Tour and having a heart especially for teen girls?
Jenna Lucado Bishop: My heart for teen girls can be traced back to college. I joined a little singing group that would travel to various girl’s events to lead worship. It was at these all-girl weekends that I realized I loved talking to, encouraging, and offering advice to teenage girls. I wasn’t much older than them, but I had just enough wisdom to offer since high school was finally in hindsight:) I knew that one day, I wanted to work with teen girls full-time. I just didn’t know what that would look like. And it DEFINITELY would not look like me speaking from a stage! Seriously. I never wanted to be a speaker.
Well fast-forward four years, and I hear about this new conference called Revolve. Revolve comes from a “mama” tour called Women of Faith. I knew Women of Faith through my dad, and they told me all about this new conference for girls that they were starting. I casually mentioned that I would love to serve at something like that. I was envisioning helping behind stage or on the concourse, selling product or joining the marketing team. I never knew Mary Graham (president of Women of Faith) would sit down with me a year later and ask me if I wanted to try teaching on stage.
SOAR: When and how did you realize that God was calling you to be a speaker and writer, (did your father’s work have a big influence)?
HeartBlooms – Appreciating Others Beyond What Appears to Be
There’s so much value and beauty we miss in a person if we only care to see what “appears to be” or simply take what we want from them.
Take the time to look deeper without being quick to judge, to love others in our lives for their eccentricities and through their blunders. We can sometimes be more patient and lenient with ourselves then with others who possess similar flaws. Be thankful for those who patiently peel back the layers to see what’s in YOUR heart.
