A bystander, who saw where the trouble lay, said to him, "Come, my boy, don't be so greedy. Be content with half the amount, and you'll be able to get your hand out without difficulty."
Now, the moral of that story is "Do not attempt too much at once", but I think there's another side. I say the moral of the story could also be: "When we don't let go, we get stuck."
II Corinthians 4:18 offers some great advice: "...we look not to the things
that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that
are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal."
It's all about the Unseen.
Let go of the stuff, whether you have it now or not. It's OK. I can say that. We have/had stuff. We were big stuff at one point too. This move to Brazil was a HUGE change to what we were used to. We had to let go of the stuff to move on. Literally.
I made a music video presentation (all original photos/video clips) based on one of my favorite songs, "Steal My Show", by TobyMac. It's a great visual of some of the things we had to let go of, but came here to see. Oh, and work on that unseen eternal stuff. Now that's good stuff. ;-)
Btw, leave it in the small screen because it blurs when you expand it. Sorry. But not bad for my first music video. If you prefer, you can click on the following link for the YouTube version.
