Transformation - Bring the Change by Being the Change
TRANS FORMATION
Many people before us showed us that they could make a difference. Martin Luther King had a dream. He was willing to fight for equal rights for black and white in the 1960s. Back then this was unthinkable, but now equality became a first right in our democratic societies. Right now, there is still much of change needed. Our societies are ruled by money and individualism and this influences our daily lives. Is anyone is willing to step in the areas of business, arts, government, education, media, families and even churches to bring Gods principles there? Who will initiate tomorrows transformations?

I Have a Dream
Each one of us has an individual purpose and calling on this earth. Joseph, also known as “the dreamer” in the bible, was called to be a Prime Minister and provided food in a season of extreme shortage for entire nations. Moses was called to liberate the Jews from the terrible slavery in Egypt. William Wallace dreamt and fought for his land’s independence from English domination. Another fighter was William Wilberforce. He couldn’t stand the harsh slave trade and committed his life to abolish slavery. Martin Luther King had a dream regarding racial equality and the end of discrimination. I have a dream. I am sure you have one too. If not, think of something that makes you restless, something that extremely touches you or something that affects you more that anything else. That particular thing is continuously itching inside, it is like a
hunger, a burning flame within. It just won’t let you be indifferent from it… do you know what? Your dream and calling is not far away from that! Your dream includes that particular issue being solved.
An Even Bigger Dream
So, you’re a Christian. You are part of His Church and live your life on this planet. But what do you do with this dream? Why is it there?
