Grow into reaching the impossible

Action always overcomes inaction when reaching for the impossible. 
James 2:26 “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.”

A plan is good, a good plan is even better, but if that plan doesn’t get put into action it’s as useless as a four fingered glove. Learn to get into action, start today, whatever you’ve been postponing-just do it. If you wait for the perfect time, you’ll never accomplish anything.

It takes others who can dream the impossible with you to make it possible.
You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality.

Proverbs 29:18 “Where there is no vision, the people perish…”

NKJV “Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint…”

HCSB “Without revelation people run wild…”

Without people the vision will perish. Our life as believers is about serving others. When you serve others, you serve yourself, and you give God a real opportunity to prove He can do the impossible.

Grow into reaching for the impossible daily.
1 Peter 2:1-3 “Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings, As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.”

Every day you should become a little better than you were the day before. If you can become one percent better daily, you can recreate your life every 100 days. Learn to get better daily; look for ways to improve, to be kinder, more intelligent, and more helpful.
