"Having been born on the wrong side of the track do not mean that, the birth place has to remain permanent address." These

Powerful words spoken by Dr.Ben Carson in the book 'Think Big' Ben Carson wants us to shift our frame of reference from ordinary and what we have always known to what we should know about ourselves. He is very good example of a person who rose from poor performance in school, to the most renowned doctor in the United States of America and in the world.

Being the poor performer in class for Ben was not the problem. The problem is that he did not know that he had a lot of untapped potential within him that could see him become a doctor someday.

There is something that we can always do to turn around the situation. Do not confirm to what others think you are. Go an extra mile and do something out of the ordinary. People's opinion on you does not have to become your reality.

Jeremiah 1:4-5
The word of the Lord come to me saying; before I formed you in the womb, I knew you and set you apart. I appointment you as a prophet to the nation.

The scripture gives us the assurance of victory even when we think that we are not worth it. When God called Jeremiah to be His prophet, he began by assuring him that even before he was formed in his mother's womb.


It is so unfortunate that God believes in us and He is patiently. Stop looking at your weaknesses only, but make more time to look at your strengths. Be brave and courageous enough to do what you were born to do.
When we have courage we can face the future with confidence. Courage enables us to endure our present challenges with tenacity that never gives up. Courage makes us stronger, brave and better people.

Forgetting the past is a choice one has to make. Many people don't understand what that means. They keeping wondering "How can I forget something that has happened to me?" But one definition of the word forget is to disregard internationally or overlook. Sometimes our past victories keep us from rising higher as much as past failures. If we don't let go of the old, we'll never be able to embrace the new.
It doesn't matter what happened in your history, its time to forget what lies behind.

Today, make the choice to live forward. Even if it means falling, falling forward. Trust that God has a better future in store for you. Trust that He's working behind and press forward, you'll see incressed blessing and live the abundant life He has in store for you!
