Dream Bigger

I have been saying this to myself a lot lately. I realized I have an issue asking for things. I knew I did it naturally but I didn't realize how much I was doing it spiritually! Last night I had a dream someone handed me money and said, "You asked God for something but didn't expect to get it but here is your answer." All I could do was cry.
I woke up partly in shock that I was exposed like that as well as in deep thought. It made me take a step back and analyze myself. James 4:2 discusses you don't have what you desire because you don't ask for it. That is pretty straight to the point. I think maybe I have felt I should be grateful for what I have. Maybe I felt when I asked for things I didn't get it so I had to make it happen for myself. Whatever the root is, the issue is I don't even ask. Part of my issue with dreaming bigger is my struggle to ask for what I want or see. I depend on Jaymi for everything. I do only what Jaymi's resources can provide and truthfully that is very limited. What if part of me dreaming bigger was me being willing to ask for bigger.
Is asking also holding you back? I believe God is beckoning us to do more and we are looking at the fact we don't physically have more when he is telling us to ask for more. I want you to take a chance on asking. A lot of what we desire is on the other side of our ASK! Get the audacity to ask for the hard thing. Ask for the things that feel impossible. Ask for what feels beyond your ability. That is where God will meet us. In this season I am choosing to ask despite being afraid of a No!
That is what it really is. I am trying to avoid a disappointment that hasn't even happened!
We will be free and we will ask. Our father is waiting to hear our request!
