God-Sized Opportunity

 How are we going to rise to the potential that God has put inside of us? How are we going to start living our best days yet? 

We have to raise our thinking. We have to change our mindset. There’s a story about this little boy who was fishing, and he was right on the bank of this river. He was casting out his fishing line, and an older man was watching from afar. 

All of the sudden, this little boy caught a huge bass over 12 inches long, and this older man runs over to him. He says, “That’s amazing. What a great catch!” Right as he’s saying this, the little boy unhooks the fish and throws it back into the river. The older man gasps saying, “What are you doing? You just caught a whopper. Why did you throw it back in?” The boy looked up at the man and said, “My frying pan is only 9 inches wide.” 

This is the way a lot of us think. God is trying to give us God-sized opportunities, but our frying pan is only 9 inches. We don’t have the mental capacity to believe that

In that moment, Jesus commanded him to go into the city, where he would be told what to do next. God has us where He wants us.... Saul had order, but in a split second, the very people he was leading ended up guiding him after a heavenly encounter caused him to lose his sight. Realizing he had been doing the exact opposite of what was right in the name of religion, he experienced a relationship with God for...
