Will Craig wrote an article on people believing they can do things. The story was about a boy who had fallen asleep in math class. He awoke when the bell rang, and hurriedly wrote down a problem on the black board which he thought was the homework. He went home and worked diligently on the problem, but he could not figure it out. He continued the remainder of the week to work on it knowing that he would fail if he did not come up with the answer. Finally, he got the answer and took it to his teacher. The teacher was amazed because the problem he solved was supposedly unsolvable. How did he do it? He believed it was possible. Will Craig said, "Handled effectively, beliefs can be the most powerful forces for creating good in our lives."
This story reinforces the fact that we can do anything we put our minds to. How many times in your life have you, out of determination and positive thinking, accomplished something you once thought was impossible? Like the math problem, we break it down into steps making it more manageable until it is complete. Our beliefs are a choice which forms our character, controls our destiny and enriches our growth
What was your impossible story?
