Musing: Potential

I can’t begin to tell you the hours I have spent thinking about no crying out to the Lord that each and every person would reach/fulfill the potential that is buried inside them.

It was this afternoon and I was working in my yard and so my faces came to my mind and I just wanted to cry because I could see “buried treasure” inside of them. I prayed that somehow that they would be catapulted into their tomorrows. 

There are numerous reasons why we don’t reach or potential. You can probably make your own list. Here are a few:

• We are prisoners to the restrictions we put on ourselves and the restrictions others have put on us.
• Fear of not succeeding
• Our past failures: mistakes
• Our past sin
• The lies of the devil that you can’t or your past is too much to overcome
• We don’t believe in ourselves
• Guilt over the past
• Etc

Our yesterday’s cannot dictate our tomorrow. Our failures, mistakes and sins must yield to the grace of God (our gifts, talents and, anointing). 

This is your hour. It’s time to take a leap of faith. It’s time to shed the chains that have held you back. Your place in the Kingdom God awaits you. I just saw a bunch of angels with cheerleading pom pom’s, They are cheering, “you can do it,”
