Giants

According to one of my accountability partners, a Physic professor once said this:

There are people who have their heads in the cloud, and have amazing foresight, but they can't get anywhere in real life, because their feet are not firmly planted on the ground.

And then there are others, whose feet are on the ground, very practical in real life but cannot get anywhere far either for the lack of foresight...

But then there are a few, whose feet are in the ground, but their head are in the cloud!

We call them giants, people who impact the world...

Don't forget that in growth, God is often stretching us in both directions.

Don't forget that in stretching, it's done slowly over time, sometimes painful a bit too.

I am still thinking about the post above...

The question is, "Where do you start? With the head first or with the feet first?" And as I pondering the question, I ran into Paul, and this is what he said, "Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you." [Rom.12:3] And so I think the more natural way would be start with the feet and grow from there...
