“When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.” —Luke 1:41

Your dreams are powerful. They don’t just stir something inside of you—they awaken something in others. When you dare to dream with God, heaven touches earth.

But here’s the truth: not everyone will understand the dream God placed in your heart. Some may question it. Some may even discourage it. And that’s OK. Dreams are deeply personal, and often the vision God gives you won’t be fully understood by everyone around you.

Yet, while not everyone will believe in your dream, God will bring the right people into your life who will recognize it, celebrate it, and even leap for joy because of it.

Divine Connections Matter

Look at today’s Scripture. When Mary visited Elizabeth, they were both carrying miraculous promises that most people didn’t understand—many even criticized. But the moment these two women came together, something divine happened.

Elizabeth recognized the dream inside of Mary. She didn’t minimize it. She didn’t question it. Instead, she celebrated it, and her spirit leapt with joy. That’s the power of divine connection.

Mary didn’t need everyone’s approval, but having someone who saw the divine nature of her calling and stood by her in faith surely made the journey lighter.

Who Are Your Elizabeths?

Sometimes God sends us a few key people who can see, feel, and affirm the calling on our lives. These are your Elizabeths—the ones who will:

• Celebrate what God is birthing in you.
• Pray for you when the journey feels heavy.
• Stir your faith when doubt creeps in.
• Remind you of God’s faithfulness when the road gets long.

Don’t waste your energy trying to convince the wrong people to believe in your dream. Not everyone is meant to journey with you into the next season. That doesn’t make them wrong; it simply means they’re not your Elizabeths.

Dreaming Was Never Meant to Be Solo

The Bible makes it clear—we are stronger together. Moses had Aaron. David had Jonathan. Paul had Barnabas. None of them pursued their God-given dreams alone, and neither should you.

The road to fulfilling your God-given dream can be long, challenging, and yes, sometimes lonely. But with the right people walking alongside you, your faith will be strengthened, your joy multiplied, and your victories even sweeter.

So, look for the people who make your “baby leap.” The ones who speak truth when you need it most, who affirm God’s Word when you forget, and who stay with you in the valleys and on the mountaintops.

Shared dreams create shared strength.

Dream together.
