From our earliest moments growing up, we learned to dream. We wanted to be a doctor, lawyer, race car driver, or the president. No borders existed on what could be possible for us. And between right now and someday, we looked for our dreams to become a reality. But along the path of life, certain events and circumstances brought on discouragement, anger, and frustration. Our once limitless possibilities became limited. We only wanted a small slice of happiness for ourselves. But instead of a slice of happiness, we received a pound of persecution, trials, and tribulation. I wrote Unless the Lord Builds the House: Living an Extraordinary Life in God to describe the life you can live between now and someday. Even within the trials and tribulation you might experience on a daily basis, there is something wonderful happening within you. God has an extraordinary life for you to live before Him and His children. And it is my prayer that you will come to see the beauty of your life as God unfolds it before you.
