Hey Elisha Pastor Tom did share a challenging word yesterday, the point he mentioned that really touched me was that when we speak of freedom in Christ one of the things we are free from is smallness of soul. He spoke about how if the greater One is truly in us then it should reflect in our visions and goals. I was just thinking about how our educational system in Zim doesn`t really set the platform for you to have big visions and huge goals.
I`ll explain all we spoke about in High School for example is what will you study in Varsity and who will you work for when you`re done. Above that the only other things we spoke about were who would you want to get married to and how many children do you want to have? That was it!! Noone spoke about building big corporations that will meet a need (like Pastor spoke about yesterday). Noone spoke about building a line of Resorts across Africa, noone spoke about doing anything that would be worth a penny to the next generation. I must admit my thinking was pretty small when I first encountered the the teaching on Reformation. I`ll give you guys an example I used to think (during the Zim Dollar days around 2005), I used to think that the biggest giver was giving around $500.00 ZWD, I thought if you were giving that much then you must really congratulate yourself... Until one day I heard that one person had purchased all our new video equipment ammounting to $1,000,000.00 USD! I was shell shocked, that changed my thinking concerning finances foever! I began to think maybe there is another way to live, maybe its possible to move beyond the $500.00 USD mark. Maybe just maybe there is something else out there!! Remember Pastor Tom says never allow someone to build your world, they will always build it too small!! I have determined never to allow myself to think small, to have smallness of soul. And I pray that as Vibers our hearts and souls are large like Solomon the word says in *1st Kings 4:29 - And God gave Solomon wisdom and exceedingly great understanding, and largeness of heart like the sand on the seashore. * What were your views on Pastors message yesterday?
