I heard this once and I never forgot it: the bigger the plane, the longer the runway.
It’s true for hopes and dreams, too. The bigger the dream, the longer the runway that dream needs.
[Tweet “The bigger the dream, the longer the runway that dream needs.”]So let me ask you, “How big are your dreams?”
Some dreams will require a lifetime of runway building to get them off the ground. In case you think that’s a statement about not being good enough, let me remind you that Jesus had a 30-year runway before His ministry took off for a 3-year flight.
That’s a 10:1 ratio of runway to flight. Ten to one. Are you willing to do that? Am I? Would I be willing to write for 10 years in obscurity for one book to take off? Is your dream worth that kind of investment?
I guess that all depends on how much we believe in the dreams that those planes are carrying.
