Go Higher

Four years ago I took a helicopter ride around Louisville with my pastors. We were looking for a different perspective to inspire our dreams of impacting this city. Higher points of view will give you that perspective. Sometimes you have to see something from a different point of view to see that God is doing more in your life than you know. While I was 10,000 feet in the air I wrote down these two thoughts...

1. Blessed is a mindset. How you think determines everything. You can believe the lie that other people are more blessed than you, or you can quit comparing and start believing you have already been blessed with every spiritual blessing (Eph 1:3).

2. What you focus your attention on will determine your direction and influence your affections. Dr. James Dobson said, "The same boiling water that hardens the egg will soften the carrot. Everything depends on the individuals particular reaction to stressful circumstances." It's time to go higher. It's time to quit the excuses. It's time to realize God has more for you than you could even ask or imagine. God's doing something special in every city through a plethora of ministries. Are you going to do your part to impact your city for Christ?
