Do the Impossible and Be Daring

Commit yourself to a dream. Nobody who tries to do something great but fails is total failure. Why? Because he can always rest assured that he succeeded in life’s most important battle; he defeated his fear of trying. Dr. Robert Schuller.

Mind is the master; power that moulds and makes. Man is mind and evermore he takes the tool of thought and shaping what he wills, brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills. He thinks in secret and it come to pass. Environment is but his looking glass. John Allen
Every great achievement was once considered impossible as someone commented.

Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Phil. 4: 11-13(NKJV)

Everything seen in this world first began in the heart of somebody who was daring, and who never thought of impossibility. He got to put his faith to work expecting a change regardless the prevailing circumstances around him.

Things will not move, until we move it. As Newton’s laws of motion states: ‘All objects remain in a state of rest until a force is applied.’’ This is the true state of things, until the necessary force is applied.

In every life endeavour you must be daring to put your gifts and resources available to you to use. There is something you can do. As you put them to use, they will rejuvenate and attract whatever is needed as you begin to work.

Your greatest advantage is in your disadvantage. Opportunity is constantly where you are, never where you were. This amplifies what Hamilton Mabie said: ‘’the question for each man to settle is not what he would do if had the means, time, influence and educational advantages, but what he will do with the things he has.’’

Your attitude towards what you have is very vital, if you are to turn the impossible circumstances around for better. A wise man once said, ‘’Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things only hoped for.’’

Things will change as you change your thoughts, improve on them and believe in the Great God who is in you. Paul the Apostle was inspired by the Holy Spirit in 1 Timothy 4:14-16 on the importance of working on what we have. He wrote, ‘’Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you …. Meditate on these things; give yourself entirely to them, that your progress may be evident to all.’’

Don’t neglect by getting upset over what you don’t have, however use what you have where you are to avoid the waste of what you already have. You must not say if things were different, I would do something. By all means, do something with them as they are. Take the stock, what you have left is more than enough go on and conquer any how any way.
