What if You Let Yourself Imagine Again?

Albert Einstein once said, “Imagination is more important than knowledge.” And the older I get, the more I believe he was right.

Because knowledge helps us survive… But imagination helps us come alive.

It opens the door to possibility. It gently pulls us out of autopilot and asks: What if there’s another way to live, to feel, to be?

And I wonder - when was the last time you really let yourself imagine? Not worry. Not problem-solve. Not analyze. But simply dream with God.

What would it feel like to:

✨ Imagine a life with more spaciousness and peace than stress and busyness?

✨ Imagine mornings that begin with slow rhythms and deep breaths instead of distraction or rushing?

✨ Imagine living from a rested spirit and a sense of inner peace, not pressure or expectations?

In our achievement-driven world, imagination gets labeled as impractical. But in the Kingdom of God, it’s sacred. It’s how vision is born. It’s how faith grows. It’s how we begin to trust that something new is possible.

I know that this is what I'm being invited into right now. And maybe you are too:

A quiet remembering of what your soul still longs for. A holy curiosity about what’s next. A willingness to believe that the second half of life could be fuller and more meaningful - not busier, but deeper.

So today, I encourage you to pause. Take a slow breath. And ask: What might God be inviting me to imagine?

Let the answers come slowly. Let your mind wander. Let your heart open.

Because imagination isn’t just for artists or children - it’s for you. A sacred way of dreaming in partnership with God.

And it just might be the first step toward the life your soul has been waiting for.
