Oh happy day! Andy can finally reach the pedals on his Fisher Price Action Sounds Trike. Poor kid was "Fred-Flintstoning" it for awhile, but now, his stubby little feet can touch the pedals and go! He thinks he's all that & proved that by challenging me to a race today when we went out to get the mail. (yes, I let him win)In life, it's so cool when we move from "I-think-I-can" to "I-just-did!"
What's a recent example of this in your life?

This is a very inspiring post. Great example.
Here are a few for me.
I think I can run a marathon. I just did.
I think I can right a book. I just did.
I think I can start my own business. I just did.
I'd like to add one more step after "I just did." I think the best part is realizing "If I can do that, I wonder what else I can do?" Each accomplishment creates greater confidence for future attempts.
By the way, I'm a little jealous of that beautiful big wheel. I'm not going to let my kids see it. They'd be jealous too.

I THOUGHT TO MYSELF WHEN I WAS HIRED FOR THE AMBASSADOR POSITION IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM ..LORD THIS IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THEN WHAT I EXPECTED !! ITS SCARY ..ITS SAD..IT SEEMS OVERWHELMING....DID I MAKE THE RIGHT DESCION? THEN THE LORD GENTLY WHISPERED HIS WORD TO MY HEART ..." YOU CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO GIVES YOU STRENGHT"..THATS ALL I NEEDED ...A LITTLE CONFIDENCE FROM MY HEAVENLY FATHER...AND NOW THAT I HAVE BEEN THERE AWHILE I CAN SAY..'I AM DOING IT!!" ( THROUGH JESUS !)ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT I EVER IMAGINED...R.S.F.
Everyday we face challenges in our life, may be is an unreachable pedal or other situation, we have two choices: To surrender or not to surrender... I think I can write in english... and I just did it! Thanks for sharing this history. Great for Andy, great for you, great for insights!
David - GREAT point. Thanks for sharing it here.
Hey RSF - that's one of the best 'you can do it' verses!
Arturo - You have worked so hard at mastering English. God and us applaud your refusal to quit!
