I am so excited. I met...errr I mean...I shook hands with Senator Obama and Governor Deval! For those of you who don't know Governor Deval is not only the first Democratic Governor in the state of MA in 16 years but he is the first black governor of MA and only the second black governor in the history of the U.S.! Wow! Senator Obama is, of course, the first black man that actually has a shot at the presidency.
I have to say that Senator Obama's talk was truly inspirational. One of his messages was that change starts from the bottom up and that one person can make a difference. Never underestimate yourself. Don't look at the obstacles, just the opportunities.
If you had a magic wand and could change something what would it be? What are you doing to make changes now? If the answer is nothing, what is stopping you? Always think big. Really big. The prayer of Jabez is a good one to say:
Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, "Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain." And God granted his request." 1Chronicles 4:10
I mean who the heck was Jabez? Had you even heard of him before the book came out? I am sure a lot of people still have no idea who he is. Essentially, he wan' nobody BUT that didn't stop God from using him. He was also a godly man who trusted, had faith and God granted his request. Surely he will do the same for you. Try adding this prayer to your daily prayers that you say and see how God will move in your life. Trust that prayer can move mountains.
