“Capable of More Than We Do”

In a Bible Lesson recently, there was a quote from page 89 of Science and Health where Mary Baker Eddy says, “We are all capable of more than we do.” I have been thinking of that this week. When I first came here to Plainfield Church, I felt I had grown about as far as I could in life, only to find that it was just the beginning of what God was going to demand from me.

Multiple times in these past years that I have been a member of this church, I have felt that I was at my absolute limit of what I was capable. And then, each time, just a few months later I would need to take on more work, and it would be clear to me that God was making me ready for it. Now, when I start feeling that I am at my limit, it makes me happy because I know that God is preparing me and soon there will be room for more.

I am so grateful for this process, as not only has it proved to me the truth of Mrs. Eddy’s words, but also I am realizing that anyone willing to go through this process for God will find there is no upper limit; God has created each of us with unlimited potential for expressing His good.
