So often, people limit themselves in their thinking. They don’t think they’ll ever accomplish their dreams. They start thinking they don’t have the talent, the connections or the funds. They don’t think a marriage could ever be restored or they’ll ever get out of debt. But that kind of thinking comes from looking at things in the natural.
That’s a limited perspective. We have to realize that God is a supernatural God. And just because we don’t see a way doesn’t mean that God doesn’t have a way. God can bring one opportunity across your path that will thrust you to a new level. He has explosive blessings that can blast you out of debt and into abundance! He can do what medical science can’t do!
Today, I encourage you to take the limits off your thinking. Lift up your eyes to Jesus, the Author and Finisher of your faith. Trust that He is working behind the scenes on your behalf, and He will make a way out of no way. Remember, what you are facing may seem impossible with man, but when God puts His “super” on your “natural,” anything is possible!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father God, thank You for Your hand of blessing on my life.
Help me to take the limits off my thoughts and see with a supernatural perspective.
Today, I choose to lift up my eyes to You, Jesus, the Author and Finisher of my faith.
In Jesus’ Name.
Amen!

12 Rules of Chocolate
1. Chocolate is a vegetable. How, you ask? Chocolate is derived from cacao beans. Bean = vegetable.
Sugar is derived from either sugar CANE or sugar BEETS.
Both are plants, which places them in the vegetable category.
Thus, chocolate is a vegetable.
2. To go one step further, chocolate candy bars also contain milk, which is dairy.
So candy bars are a health food.
3. Chocolate covered raisins, cherries, orange slices and strawberries all count as fruit,
so eat as many as you want.
4. If you've got melted chocolate all over your hands,
you're eating it too slowly.
5. The problem: How to get 2 pounds of chocolate home from the store in a hot car.
The solution: Eat it in the parking lot.
6. Diet tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal.
It'll take the edge off your appetite, and you'll eat less.
7. If calories are an issue, store your chocolate on top of the fridge.
Calories are afraid of heights, and they will jump out of the chocolate to protect themselves.
8. If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate,
is that a balanced diet?
Don't they actually counteract each other?
9. Chocolate has many preservatives.
Preservatives make you look younger.
Therefore, you need to eat more chocolate.
10. Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do today.
That way, at least you'll get one thing done.
11. A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake of calories in one place.
Now, isn't that handy?
12. If not for chocolate, there would be no need for control top pantyhose.
An entire garment industry would be devastated.
You can't let that happen, can you?
