Have you ever walked into a store before with something to exchange? Maybe it was an article of clothing that you decided you didn’t like, a pair of shoes that were uncomfortable, or a gadget that didn’t do what you’d expected. You entered the store with something that didn’t work for you, exchanged it, and left with something that did work for you. You had to trade what was not effective for something that was. The same principle applies to your thinking. If you exchange your “I can’t” thoughts for “I can” thoughts, you will see remarkable changes begin to happen. If you build into your character the thought that, with God’s help, you can do whatever you need to do in life, you will have more zeal and enthusiasm about facing every day. Some of the challenges you face may be very difficult ones; however, God never allows more to come on us than we can bear. (1 Cor 10:13 No temptation have overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.) It’s never too late to begin saying, “I can.” I challenge and encourage you right now to consistently believe you can do anything that comes your way, with God’s help. Turn your “I can’t” into “I can” today. Pastor Don [image: image.png]
