More Than the Current Value


A friend of mine was telling me how she was at work and found $10 on the ground. Much as she wanted it - after all, it was lying on the floor out in the open - she felt she needed to find the owner. She was not happy, but then a thought popped into her mind - are you only worth $10? Is it that important to you? Later, she was blessed with a different monetary gift that far surpassed the $10.

When we are moving to our next level, getting our wing strength together, it is so easy to focus solely on the situation. We get caught up looking at the current surroundings, frustrated and struggling to break through, grateful for even the smallest reprieve. It can hurt us, really overwhelm our senses and make us think there is no way out. We have no idea what the true end goal is, just that it'll exceed, abundantly, more than we could ever ask for if we can only push forward.

Bill Gates knew that the software he had was special, even at $10 a share, but couldn't fathom that no household would be without it years later. Joseph did not know just how impactful his dreams could be when he was sitting in jail. The woman with the issue of blood did not know that she could impact the entire world when she was pushing through to touch the garment. We have no assurance what the outcome will be, just that it will make us more than what we are currently worth.

This week, stay positive, remain focused and keep moving. It is all apart of growing your wing muscles and increasing your current value.
