Potential. There’s a lot wrapped up in that word. It’s fulfilling when we see someone live up to his/her potential. On the other hand, it’s disappointing and sometimes even tragic when we think of what could have been, when people fail to reach their potential. When God created the first humans, potential was bubbling and bursting everywhere. But things didn’t work out as planned. And we can still see the damage clearly today. So what are we supposed to think about that? Revise our expectations? Give up? Try harder? This week we’ll be talking about what it means to be human and how God has made a plan for our lives with more potential than we could ever imagine!
