Thinking Small is a Dream Killer and Stealer

God thinks way bigger than we do! He calls us to expand our mindset to match His limitless possibilities.

He doesn’t think small—and He doesn’t want us to either.
He wants us to get out of the small box, limited thinking and into the greatness of His plans.

I have to be intentional about this. If I’m not careful, my past wounds and failures can trap me in small thinking. But God has a way of turning our pain into powerful ministry moments.

For me, it’s not always easy when people ask if I have a cold or sound hoarse. It’s from dozens of vocal surgeries due to not taking care of my body well.

Yet, what once felt like a limitation has become an opportunity to connect and share God’s faithfulness. Our scars don’t define our calling—they refine it.

I’m choosing not to let past pain limit me, but to trust that God can redeem it all for His glory. Therefore, my voice sounding different is not a limitation to God.

He doesn’t think small—and He doesn’t want us to either.
He wants us to get out of the small box, limited thinking and into the greatness of His plans.

We serve a God of no limits—so why limit our thinking?
He encourages us to dream big… because He is big.

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
— Isaiah 55:8–9 (NIV)

The Call to Action

Talk with God in prayer:
Lord, stretch my thinking to match Your purpose and places. Free me from small, fearful thoughts and fill me with bold, faith-filled vision.

Help me to dream big with You and step into all You’ve made possible in the name of Jesus, Amen.

today’s radiant insight:

Stop rehearing limitations. Small thinking can’t carry a big calling.
