And
that is the truth. I asked my wife, Margaret
to marry me over 40 years ago. That was
a big what if? And there was risk
involved. Now the great thing was what if she says,
“yes”? But there was also the what if she says “no”? But I took the risk and a long
with it came a son, a daughter, a daughter in law, a son in law, three
fantastic grand daughters and over 40 years with the love of my life and she
also is my best friend. But there was a
risk.
Mark
says, “Every dream, from landing a man on the moon to the moon pies created to
commemorate it, begins with what if? Every breakthrough, from the internet to
iTunes, begins with what if?”
“There
are 1,784 ifs in the Bible. Most of those ifs function as conditional
conjunctions on the front end of God’s promises. If we meet the condition, God
delivers on the promise! So all that stands between your current circumstances
and your wildest dreams is one little if.”
“One
little if can change everything.”
“One
little if can change anything.”
All
of you have had little ifs in your life. Some of them you didn’t do them others you did.
Some of you have one you are facing
right now.
So
what are you going to do?
