A man on vacation in Hawaii with his wife. He was a good man who had achieved a modest measure of success, but he was costing along, thinking that he had already reached his limits in life. One day, a friend was driving the couple around the island, showing them the sights. They stopped to admire a gorgeous house set high on a hill. The property was replete with beautiful palm trees and lush green gardens in a picturesque, peaceful setting with a panoramic view overlooking the ocean.
As the man gazed at the magnificent home, he commented to his wife and friend, I cannot even imagine living in a place like that.
Do not worry. You would not. You will never live in a great place like that.
Started at his own thoughts, he asked himself, what do you means?
As long as you can not imagine it, as long as you cannot see it, then it is not going to happen for you. The man correctly realized that his own thoughts and attitudes were condemning him to mediocrity. He determined then and there to start believing better of himself and believing better of God.
It is the same way with us. We have to conceive it on the inside before we are ever going to receive it on the outside. If you do not think you can have something good, then you never will. The barrier is in your mind. It is not God’s lack of resources or your lack of talent that prevents you from prospering. Your own wrong thinking can keep you from God’s best.
