Imagine what it would be like to be on the edge of the wave, gliding along by its mighty power. Then, you make a little mistake and BAMM, you wipeout. The wave hits you like a ton of bricks. I can only wonder what that might feel like? But, in 1973 something powerful did hit me and it was this Bible verse: "'And Jesus having earnestly beheld, said to them, "`With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.`"YLT I realized that my unregenerate life could change and that with God ANYTHING WAS POSSIBLE!!! Oh, I thought of myself as a pretty nice guy because I had two lists; one of the good things I did and another of the bad things I didn't do, but still there were some notable problems that I couldn't seem to get over (I still used some bad language when I became angry). Yet, this verse held the possibility that I could overcome my failures and with God's help, be all that I could be. This concept of growth is as true today as it was then and the power and excitement of the Almighty still amazes me. I encourage you to reflect on the meaning of this verse in your life and you never know, you just find that power and BAMM!
