frog that was born at the
bottom of a well. Just a small
circular well like you might see
on a farm. This frog and his
family that lived down there and they were so happy, so
content to swim and splash in
the water all day long. He
thought, "Life is good. We've
got all the water in the world
to ourselves." As he got a little older, he noticed the light at
the top of the well and
wondered what was up there.
One day, very carefully, he
climbed up the side of the well.
With great caution he looked over the edge and the first
thing he saw was a pond. He
couldn't believe it. It was
thousands of times more
water than what he and his
family had. He jumped out of the well and started hopping
until he came to a lake. He
stood there in amazement. He
had no words. He hopped a
little more and came to the
ocean and as far as he could see was water. He began to realize
how limited his vision had
been. He thought he had it all
but all he really had was a
drop in the bucket compared
to what was out there for him to enjoy.
Friend, God's dream for your
life is so much bigger, so much
more rewarding than you can
imagine. You haven't even
touched the surface of what
God has in store. Why don't you stretch your faith and
dare to step outside of your
well. In other words, step out
of your comfort zone. Let go
of the limiting mindsets. Turn
away from small thinking and, like that frog, go a little
further than you're used to.
Dream bigger, think bigger, see
bigger, and embrace the oceans of blessings God has in store
for you!
"For my thoughts are not your
thoughts, neither are your
ways my ways, declares the
LORD. For as the heavens are
higher than the earth, so are
my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than
your thoughts" (Isaiah 55:8-9).
