I’ve written a few times on here about the American dream. It is a concept which makes me both a little bit uncomfortable and a little bit hopeful all at the same time. I suppose it has to do with the perspective with which you view the phrase “American dream.”
It started out all hopeful so many years ago – people coming to the United States to freely pursue their dreams. Most of these people just dreamed of providing for their families. Some had bigger dreams. All associated the American dream with hope, joy, freedom.
Somewhere along the way, the American dream became something to chase. Instead of holding on to our own hopes or pursuing our own dreams, we started to compete and compare. This is the world we live in right now.
The American dream has drove many of us to despair, but I want to be a different kind of American dreamer.
Hope. Faith. Generosity. This is my dream.
I don’t want to earn more money to get ahead. I want to bless others out of God’s abundance.
I don’t want to cram my calendar full with things that make me look “good.” I want to leave time and space in my schedule to love others well.
I want to care more about people than stuff, more about service than recognition, more about Kingdom than earthly treasures.
The typical American dream floating around out there leaves me with anxiety and pressure, but the dream God has placed in my American heart fills me with joy and freedom. That’s what the American dream was all about in the first place, right?
