Visionary or Dreamer?

Are you a visionary or a dreamer? There is a clear difference...are you praying for God to do the work for you, or are you praying for the opportunity to do it yourself. Dreamers dream about things being different. Visionaries envision themselves making a difference. Dreamers think about how nice it would be for something to be done. Visionaries look for the opportunity to do something.

A great example of this is in the book of Nehemiah. Nehemiah was a man with a vision, not a dream. He didn't pray that God would rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. He prayed for the opportunity to go and do it himself. That's freaking awesome. God uses visionaries...people that see the way it should be and are not scared of the work it will take to get it done.
