You Can

With our triplets something we often hear is, "You can be anything you want to be...if you work hard enough. " I beg to differ in that department. We all have God given abilities. We all have somethings we can do well; but not many, if any,  can do all things well. We were all made different, because we need all kinds of people to do many different types of jobs.  Would a person who loves to sew, make a good doctor. It is possible, but not likely. Would an artist make a good lawyer? It's not likely.

God made each one of us. He packed in each one different skills. Someone who was meant to be a salesman might want to be a baker, but he certainly would be wasting the people skills he was given.

Can a bird give milk like a cow? No! And you cannot be anything you want to be.  But, as Max Lucado said in his lesson on this subject, "You can be everything God wants you to be!"

Listen  to what people say to you. They can see where you excel.  Pay attention to what you like to do. That is a good clue as to what you should prepare yourself to do in this life.

A wise person listens to advice. He/she also considers his/her past,  present and future wishes before making big decisions.

I pray that each triplet goes in a direction that is fit for him/her and can excel with the Lord's help.
