Dream Big: Unlock the Life You Truly Desire!

By Judi Moreo

                
What’s your ultimate dream? Picture it vividly— Maybe it’s a fantastic new job you’re after. What’s your dream role? Imagine your ideal work schedule. Will you dress in a uniform or your favorite street clothes? Picture the perfect boss—supportive, inspiring, or maybe you’re the boss yourself!

Or perhaps you’re in search of the perfect partner. What kind of personality lights up your world? What core values do they hold? What hobbies and passions will you share? Envision the kindness, love, and support they bring into your life.

Maybe it’s a sleek new car. Can you see every detail? Is it a family SUV or a flashy sports car? Does it have two doors or four? What’s the perfect color? How powerful is the engine? Visualize the interior—are the seats leather or cloth? It’s time to head to a dealership, take a test drive, and feel the thrill of what could be your new ride!

Knowing exactly what you want brings you much closer to achieving it. Vague hopes and wishes rarely lead to success. Successful people are motivated and excited about their future. They focus on possibilities, not limitations. They imagine owning that dream car, meeting the right person, and landing that dream job.

On the other hand, unsuccessful people let negative thoughts hold them back. They doubt their abilities and conjure up all the ways things could go wrong. They say, "I could never afford a car like that." "I’ll never meet someone perfect for me" or "I’m not qualified enough for that job." This mindset keeps them stuck, unmotivated, and unexcited about the future.

Don’t fall into this trap! Break free from mental limitations by focusing on what you truly desire. When you concentrate on positive outcomes, you’re more likely to achieve them. Your focus shapes your reality—so dream big, stay positive, and go after what you want with passion and determination!

MESSAGES FOR SUNDAY, JULY 27, 2025

TODAY’S GOSPEL – Luke 11:1-13 - 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time: 

Jesus was praying in a certain place, and when he had finished, one of his disciples said to him,
"Lord, teach us to pray just as John taught his disciples." He said to them, "When you pray, say:
Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread and forgive us our sins for we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us, and do not subject us to the final test."

And he said to them, "Suppose one of you has a friend to whom he goes at midnight and says,
'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, for a friend of mine has arrived at my house from a journey and I have nothing to offer him,' and he says in reply from within, 'Do not bother me; the door has already been locked and my children and I are already in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.' I tell you, if he does not get up to give the visitor the loaves because of their friendship, he will get up to give him whatever he needs because of his persistence.

"And I tell you, ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. What father among you would hand his son a snake
when he asks for a fish? Or hand him a scorpion when he asks for an egg? If you then, who are wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father in heaven
give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?"

MESSAGES FOR SUNDAY, AUGUST 3, 2025

TODAY'S GOSPEL - LUKE 12:13-21 - 18TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

Someone in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, tell my brother to share the inheritance with me.” He replied to him, “Friend, who appointed me as your judge and arbitrator?” Then he said to the crowd, “Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one’s life does not consist of possessions.”

Then he told them a parable. “There was a rich man whose land produced a bountiful harvest. He asked himself, ‘What shall I do, for I do not have space to store my harvest?’ And he said, ‘This is what I shall do: I shall tear down my barns and build larger ones. There I shall store all my grain and other goods and I shall say to myself, “Now as for you, you have so many good things stored up for many years, rest, eat, drink, be merry!”’ But God said to him, ‘You fool, this night your life will be demanded of you; and the things you have prepared, to whom will they belong?’ Thus will it be for all who store up treasure for themselves but are not rich in what matters to God.”
