"I will...show you great and mighty things, which you do not know." Jeremiah 33:3 NKJV
Most success stories begin as an idea in someone's mind. And God is the giver of good ideas. "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights" (Jas 1:17 NKJV). God imparts wisdom and knowledge to those who are humble enough to seek His guidance. His promise is: "Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know." Robert Chesebrough had a product in which he believed wholeheartedly. In fact, it was his own invention. Cheseborough had transformed the ooze that forms on shafts of oil rings—rod wax—into a petroleum jelly that he personally found to have great healing properties. He believed so much in the healing aspects of his creation that he became his own "experimental subject." To demonstrate the benefits of his product for others, he burned himself with acid and flame. He cut and scratched himself so often and so deeply that he bore scars of his tests for his entire life. Nevertheless, Cheseborough proved his point, and people were convinced. They only had to look at his wounds and how they were healed to see the value of his product, which is still an international bestseller. We know it as Vaseline. What do you see in your future? Do you believe enough in its potential to help others that you're willing to invest your time, energy, resources, and hope into developing it? If you seek God's guidance, He will "show you great and mighty things, which you do not know."
