When Dreams Come True {Giveaway}

November 24, 2009 by Kristen

*UPDATED* Congratulations to Cheryl! (Her dream is to “Relax” -she must be a Mom!) I corrected the bad link to Mela’s site, please make sure you visit, enjoy her music and follow your dream!

What is your dream?
I think everyone has one. Some are pursued with vigor and confidence, some hidden deep within, while others are buried under the ashes of regret and disappointment.
But everyone has one. A dream.
Lean in close and I’ll whisper mine in your ear: I want to author a book. I’ve faced a lot, A LOT of rejections, but it’s still there. My dream.

Well. I want to introduce you to someone who made their dream come true: Mela Kamin.
I’ll let her tell you in her own words: 
“This is my debut CD. I co-wrote all the songs, recorded in Nashville with some

amazing musicians, after just a year of making the decision to step out in faith
and use my gifts in this way. I didn’t grow up going to church or singing in choirs.
I never sang a song in front of an audience (besides at my grandparents’ funerals)
until last year. All this happened because I overcame fear, watched God open
BIG doors and I walked boldly through, trusting Him to lead the way.

I now travel and share my stories and songs about how big God’s plans are for us.
My husband, Greg & I started 4:10 Ministries based on 1 Peter 4:10: “Each one
should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering
God’s grace in its various forms.” We work to encourage people to discover, accept,
use and celebrate their unique gifts.”


Wow, huh?

Mela sent me a copy of her CD to listen to and a couple of her cute t-shirts.

And do you know how I felt after I listened to it? Inspired.  

I’m not about to give up on my dream. Neither should you.

Would you like to win a copy of Mela’s new CD and a cute shirt for you and your child ($55 value)? Visit her site, come back here and whisper your dream if you dare (or just leave a comment) and that will be your entry!

This giveaway ends on Saturday.

    Link would not work for me. My dream is to one day have my son's epilepsy under control. Then we would like to travel and help those that have faced the trial that we have faced. There is a lot of information out the about epilepsy and living a "normal" life, but not much out there about uncontrolled epilepsy. Someday, I hope that I will be able to write a book about our journey. Even if the book is just for our family…I want to write it.

    I haven't shared this with very many people…but my dream is to do foster care for infants. Most people think we are crazy but for some reason God has laid this desire on our hearts. But it's a dream because we don't qualify at the moment because my husband has been out of work for 6 months and we are losing our home. I guess my dream should be for more practical things like a job, a home, food, clothing for my children, but nope, the dream is to do foster care.

    God moves in mysterious ways in the heart.

    I think God is trying to tell me something about my dream and His will….I've been talking about my dream w/my bff, my mom, my kids and my hubby and last Sunday our pastor talked about dreams. Then I come read about Mela's dream and how God gave her the strength and courage to persue it. And your dream of writing a book…you should totally do it!

    The dream I've had for as long as I can remember is to be a physical therapist. After high school, I went to college to persue it, but got derailed by life. Now, 17 years later, I'm praying about what God wants me to do and taking the necessary steps to realize that dream.

    I'll be praying for you and your dream!

    My Dream : Children! Shortly after I was married I was was told It was unlikely that I would be able to have children and if by chance I did get pregnant it was pretty sure that I would miscarry before delivery. I was embarrased and devasted and blamed God for awhile. God worked in my life though and I got things right with him and this past year starting looking into the adoption process. Well God had other plans! 4 months ago we found out I was pregant 🙂 Im not out of the woods yet and daily have to rely on God for strength and trust Him. So my dream to have children is coming true! We still want to adopt but have currently put that on hold to see what is going on with this precious miracle growing inside of me!! Dont give up on your dreams and pray for God to show you opputunities to acheive them!

    I couldn't open the link, but love the chocolate t-shirt shown in your post. My current dream is to run a marathon. A dream growing up was to become an orthopedic surgeon, but I chose to be a stay-at-home-mom instead (don't regret it, but the dream is still tucked way back). Maybe some day my dreams will come true!

    My dream is to go deeper in the gifting God has given me. That includes teaching first and foremost with a side of writing.

    My dream is to become a nurse. After years of thinking i'd never be able to hack it, I decided to give it a shot. I'm not going to lie and say its easy, but my husband and my kids are there pushing me all the way!

    i have two big ones. one to have kids one day. not trying yet, we're getting there.
    second is to become a photographer of some sort. not really for the money aspect, more for myself. i want to be able to capture great shots and moments that become memories and emotions on film {well, on the computer anyway, nobody uses film anymore}.

    Other than living on and working our own family farm that we can pass down to our kids (like some others here), I have one dream I've been working toward realizing….

    I've just started my own business selling aprons, bags, other household type stuff that's handmade by me; as well as a children's line of goods. I want this business to take off and be a total success which will allow us to bless others.

    My business name is Bayou Kitchen {shop opening @ Etsy soon!} and I want to take 50% of the profits from it and start a "rolling soup kitchen" called "Hallelujah Kitchen". I want to travel around and provide free meals to people that need it – wherever that may be…inner cities, rural towns, even the suburbs! We're all hurting these days.

    God gave me the talents I have at sewing and designing, etc. I want to return that gift back to Him by serving others for Him – by feeding them, comforting them and meeting a basic need that we all have and many are struggling to meet in current times, and likely many more will experience in the future. The resulting chances we would have to share Jesus with people that do not know Him is the icing on the cake!

    Sorry to be long-winded….but you asked!! LOL As I'm sure you can tell, I'm very passionate about my dream. Thanks for sharing Mela with us!

    I have two dreams – one is to be a homesteader. I'd love to grow our own food, learn to sew and teach my daughter these things.

    I'd also like to run a marathon before I'm 45 (I'm 40 now).

    I have several, all of which I wonder if will ever happen considering our circumstances. Nevertheless, they are dreams and dreams can come true!
    1. Run a marathon by the time I turn 40 (I am now 35, start training baby!!).
    2. Own a little eatery that only serves soups, salads & sandwiches on our town square.
    3. Own a quality resale shop.
    And, I love my husband's dream of a baseball complex with batting cages and all of the other things he has planned for it!

My dream is to step out of my comfort zone and serve Him more. My dream is to be the best wife and mother I can be.

    Not to be a copycat, but one of my dreams, too, is to author a book. Well, actually, let me rephrase that–to publish a book. I have already authored it/them. 🙂 It is a LOT of work to try and get the thing published, and I just don't have the TIME it takes to search for that perfect agent etc…. For goodness' sake I am trying to raise and home school my kids–one day, though, I hope!!!

My dream is for them to find work and personally to open a restaurant for families and their gatherings. My husband has been out of work for quite some time.
