You never really know

I've been fascinated by the history of printing. Johannes Gutenberg's invention of the printing press started the printing revolution and was regarded as the most important event of the modern period. It became a catalyst in the development of the Renaissance, Reformation, the Age of Enlightenment and the Scientific Revolution.

I'm sure Gutenberg must have had some vision of what impact his invention could have, but I bet that even in his own time, it must have exceeded his wildest dreams. Every major era since then has grown on the back bone of this one time, and one invention.

This should give us faith and courage for the future. We should never underestimate the power of God's ingenuity in our lives as we never really know when we are going to create something that can direct the course of history.

If God has given you a mission, have faith and never give up.
