Birthing The Dream

by Judy Mzungu

It’s one thing to have an idea, it’s another thing, to sustain the capacity to bring it into fruition.

I had the blueprint, I had engaged the team, we had worked on the manuscript, but I had one daunting challenge.

The finances to make it come to pass.

A dream will cause you to have sleepless nights. While I was excited about the prospect of seeing my dream come to life, my stomach muscles tightened when I thought of the financial implications.

You may not necessarily have it all figured out, but God has a way of backing you up, if only you will step out in faith. By the Grace of God, two of my friends, graciously agreed to lend me the money to finance the printing of the books.

One headache was over.

I needed to launch the book – and didn’t quite have the money to pull it off. I had stretched my financial limit.

In the process of birthing a dream, you will find yourself in the labour room – alone. That’s where your creativity will find expression and you will tap into divine resources.

My nephew introduced me to a decent and affordable venue, and somehow, we found a way to offer refreshments without breaking the bank.

My good friend Tom Awando of Live Gigs graciously offered us a stage, sound equipment and screens at no cost, and we came up with DIY decor ideas to cut down the expenses.

Power Your Vision was, by the Grace of God, launched in a magnificent, intimate setting.

When God gives you a vision, you will not necessarily have the resources, the contacts and everything you need to make it happen. This should not deter you from pursuing your vision.

Take the first step. Overcome the initial fear. And step out in faith.

Powering your vision is about being bold enough to step out of your comfort zone and take new territory.Safari Njema!
