INSIGHT

Greatness Hides in Common

  • Life's greatest opportunities often appear ordinary or disguised in common things. God's calling is wrapped in everyday situations and humble beginnings.
  • What seems like a small seed or simple act can carry the potential for extraordinary impact and destiny.
ANECDOTE

Friends Make A New Door

  • Four friends carried a paralytic to Jesus but couldn't get through the crowded door. They made a hole in the roof to lower him down to Jesus instead of giving up.
  • Their persistence and creativity demonstrated faith in action, overcoming the barrier of disappointment.
ADVICE

Find Or Make Your Door

  • When your front door is closed, go higher and find another way. Don't turn back or quit because of rejection.
  • Sometimes you must create your own door through initiative and faith rather than waiting for permission.
