Do You See It?
There is nothing more frustrating than trying to share with someone about your vision and they just don’t seem to be interested or they simply can’t envision what you are sharing as possible. How about times when you are presented with an opportunity to do something different, but you are excused from said activity because you appear to have some sort of limitation?
I am reminded of a time when I took one of the most amazing trips of my life…to Hawaii! It is breathtaking and full of so much beauty and history. Of course, you know we took many excursions to explore the land, including bicycling down the side of Mount Haleakala (a sleeping volcano, mind you). Well, when we got our assigned bicycles, we were allowed to take pictures before our great adventure down the side of this volcano. Our tour guide demonstrated this pose that we could take, one person sitting on the bicycle while the other partner stood on the back doing a pose. The group was excited as one pair after the other took their picture. When my husband and I stepped up to take our picture, she quickly approached us. As my husband sat down and grabbed the handlebars, she told me I didn’t have to do the pose since I was much older, which would be rather tricky. Something shot through my body (shock!). I took a deep breath, smiled, and politely told her, “Oh, I can do it!
Now, my current situation has become more than just taking a picture! This opportunity had now become a challenge! So, I visualized how I wanted this picture to look; I took the first step, and then what I saw in my mind came to fruition!
You see, having an idea, and setting goals are starting points to success, if you want to really achieve what you have written on paper, you have to see yourself having accomplished your vision (goals).
“Hebrews 11:1 says, Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”
Anything is possible, seeing is believing!!!
