Dear Saints,
I want to share something with you all.
The other day I was thinking about a scene from the movie, "The Pursuit of Happiness." The movie is based on a true story about a homeless father raising his small son on the streets. One day, they were at a public basketball court shooting hoops. As they were playing, he said to his son, "I don't want you to stay out here and play all day long because you'll probably just be an average player. After all, that's all I was. You're usually just as good as your dad. We have the same genes. So I don't want you to waste a lot of time every day thinking that you'll ever really be good."
You could see that those words took the wind out of the sails of the little boy. He just dropped his ball and walked away feeling down and dejected. After a moment, the father felt convicted about what he had just said. He walked straight over to his son, got down on one knee, looked him in the eyes, and said, "Listen here son, don't you ever let anyone tell you that you can't be something great–not even me."
It's interesting that when people can't do something, oftentimes, they try to put their limitations on others. They have the attitude, "That's as high as I went, so that's probably as high as you'll go." But that's not God's attitude for you. He wants you to go further. He wants you to rise higher. Don't let anyone convince you that you cannot accomplish your God–given dreams. Don't let anyone's negative words stop you from moving forward. Other people may not believe in you, but believe in yourself. You already have what you need to live a victorious life! Don't ever let anyone convince you that you're not enough, you're not talented enough, or that you don't have what it takes, because you are equipped to go further and rise higher than you've ever dreamed!
Keep up your J Spirit !!!!
Regards,
Munish Sehgal
