Big Things Don't Have to be Big

This post is from something I wrote after attending our Advocare Success School back in July.  Sometimes when I write I put my thoughts on all these different notepads and the idea about a blog interested me because I was thinking it might be easier for me to contain it in one location.  We'll see.

"There is something spectacular about telling someone that they can do great things.  Everyone has been created by an amazing Creator and has a heart, mind and soul that can overcome and believe in something bigger than what they see.

Everything is huge in the eyes of a child.  Something happens when we begin to grow up physically that it shrinks, even our belief gets small.  The child, now grown adult, goes back to places that were 1000 acres big but was only a backyard!  How do we have that faith like a child so that we can believe again-believe in what is possible.  To dream and hope for the things we can't see.  I want that for me and my family.  Not a bigger bank account not even a bigger backyard, but a bigger heart that is open to come alongside others walking together in this journey and experiencing walls come down, mountains moved, a greater sense of self-worth, and a wonderful awe for the One who is above all things!

Not everything has to be big- big house, big TVs, big announcements, big events...sometimes it's small like a kiss, a hug, a smile, a note of encouragement.  But whether it's big or small it could mean a whole lot to someone who wants to believe BIG!"
