“Seeking higher than you are so that you might be better than you are.”
The Hubby
Is it a right thing to expect, to dream of, to want for more?
Do such thoughts lead to discontent, or do they simply act as spurs on the backsides of our lives encouraging us to not give up, to not settle, to strive to do and to be better?
Do we accept the way things are as the only way they can be?
Do we do what we do because ‘that is the way it has always been done’?
Do we awaken each morning, only to dream of returning to that same bed that night?
Do we do what we do more out of habit than conviction?
Do we anticipate a life just like our parents, because that is how our parents lived their lives?
Do we desire security more than adventure?
Do we risk?
Do we stretch?
Do we see the possible, or the impossible?
Philippians 4:13 states :
“I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.”
Mark 9:23 states :
“Anything is possible if a person believes.”
If it is true that we can do everything through Christ who gives us strength.
If anything is possible if a person believes.
Then hubby was right (the Hallelujah Chorus is playing in his ears right now), that if we seek One higher (aka. Christ) than ourselves, we truly might be better than we currently are.
And that means that there are no limits to what we might accomplish, with Him on our side.
