"Rattle Some Cages Today!"
Proverbs 29:18 "Where there is no vision, the people perish..."Bill Purvis
If your vision isn't big enough to irritate your enemies it probably isn't big enough to motivate your friends.
Whatever happened to thinking the sky's the limit? We tell our children they can be whoever they want to be or do whatever they want to do if they put their mind to it. Yet for some reason that advice is only good for so long. Once we reach a certain age or stage in life those words of wisdom aren't applicable anymore.
We're forced to settle for fourth or fifth tier and become comfortable. We let the world around us convince us that we've reached our full potential. That vision we had once upon a time has now taken a back seat. I don't know what's worse not having a vision at all or having a small one. Both might as well be deemed equal.
Our thought process is what has changed. Maybe between meeting too many naysayers along the path, associating with negative people, or incurring a few obstacles, we've pulled back and slowed our pursuit.
Don't let your mind, your fears or those around you stop your spirit from dreaming and pursuing them. God created you for a higher purpose and bigger impact than you realize. He gets glory in taking those with little potential and countless disadvantages to places that show His power. There's a difference between those who never achieve their dreams and those who do. The achievers haven't let their own minds or the world around them convince them that they cannot obtain their dreams.
It's time to rattle some cages! Start dreaming again! Start believing in a bigger vision for your life today.
