On the train this morning i was thinking of pursuing a challenging career which would stretch my already stretched imagination and strongly test my creativity. My questions and doubts were eased when this thought popped into my head as the train pulled up to my stop. .
"Never be afraid to try something new.
Remember that amateurs built the ark.
Professionals built the Titanic."
This is so true. We all know the stories of the Ark and the Titanic. It is yet another example of how God can provide us with the ability to surprise ourselves. We often ask ourselves "How am i going to be able to do this?" without first asking ourselves how we can gain the knowledge and strength we need in order to take the first step, which is always the most difficult. If we rely on our own strength and wisdom, we are sure to either fail, or not produce the work we were hoping for, considering the Titanic had expectations and plaudits poured all over it, it was to 'make history' and so much noise and media hype was surrounding its voyage.....but it sank. Whereas the Ark survived a rough journey because, simply put, it was what God wanted. There are endless Biblical verses highlighting God's enormous and mysterious power, but we need to understand that we can be capable of anything if we first look into our own minds, which God has filled with wonderful thoughts, ideas and knowledge.....the secret for us, is that we need to discover HOW to find these beautiful God given gifts within our mind.........FIND HIM!
