Can You Handle It?

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man
but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above
that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to
escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
1 Corinthians, chapter 10:13

You see we cannot do more than we are able to handle. If we want
more in life, then we must learn to handle more in life. We must be
able to get a little uncomfortable and learn new things. The best thing
anyone ever did for me was to show an interest in my personal growth.
We are in constant conflict with our mind. Should we start a business?
Should we continue a business? Should we quit? Should we change?
Should we expand the business or not? Should we learn more? Are we
Learning the right things? We are always thinking. Through personal
growth I am able to make the choices that get me through the day.

The other choice we have is to not make a choice at all. That is what the
majority of us actually do. That is why we stay the same. That is why
we must settle for what we have right now. If I want more I have to be
more.

I have this poster in my room. It’s a picture of a field of brown grass,
with mountains in the background, blue sky and white clouds. Below the
photo it says:

GOALS

“Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not
reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and
try to follow where they lead.”

That is why I am writing you this letter. Where do you want to be in 6
months, 2 years, 5 years or 10 years? Where are you looking to and what( or who)
is leading you?
