Oscar Wilde said, “I like men who have a future and women who have a past.”
And then Hugh White said this simple truth, “The past cannot be changed, the future is still in your power.” Such great news! Wowzer!
Friday story:
A little girl watched with envy as her older brother and his friends worked a gumball machine outside the local hardware store. When she asked her brother for a gumball, he told her he didn’t have any more quarters for the machine and she would have to use her own allowance for such treats.
When her father arrived at home that evening, the little girl approached him to make her request, “Daddy, can I have a quarter?” Feeling generous, the father pulled out his wallet and offered his daughter a crisp new twenty-dollar bill.
Not realizing what the bill was, the little girl refused the paper money. As far as she was concerned, it was useless – it wouldn’t fit into the gumball machine. She said, “No, I don’t want that. I want a quarter.”
How many times have we done something similar? We get focused on some small goal for our future – we are missing a bigger life, a bigger gift – like the father in this story – generosity is what God gives – it’s us that shuts all the good things down because we think to small – Today, think big, act big, seek possibilities, you can!
