When Sega made the decision to stop creating new consoles after the failure of the Dreamcast, it left fans of their first-party games such as the Sonic series with a lot of questions. Would Sega continue to develop titles featuring Sonic and his friends? And if they did, what console would they be released on? But the death of the Dreamcast console didn’t meant the dream of saving the world as the world’s fastest hedgehog ended. As a matter of fact, this turn of events led to Sonic expanding to even greater exposure, placing him onto EVERY available gaming platform so new fans could be found no matter where they chose to play, leading to not only more games but the launch of the Sonic cinematic universe as well.

We all experience the pain of seeing our dreams explode in our face over the course of our lives, and in the aftermath it is easy to become bitter, angry, or depressed enough to give up on the dream entirely. But the Lord isn’t allowing our God-given dreams to be crushed without a reason… He is using these events to guide us into something bigger. Just as Joseph’s dreams led him far beyond leading his family to a throne in Egypt, our destiny will take many unwanted detours to see His grand plan fulfilled. As Jesus Himself demonstrated, the tomb containing our buried dreams is where His plan truly begins.

Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain. John 12:24

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28
