Did you know that the founder of McDonalds (Ray Kroc) was 52 years old when he decided to mortgage his home to borrow an enormous amount of money to start the fast-food restaurant known by many as McDonalds? Not only was Ray middle-aged, but his health was also poor, as evidenced by a long history involving arthritis, diabetes, and the loss of his bladder and most of his thyroid gland. Despite all of that, this man never stopped believing in himself. Today, McDonalds is the second most recognizable name in the world, second only to Coca-Cola.
If you think you're too old, too sick, and/or too broke to go after your dreams, please stop renting that space out in your head. It's time for you to get up and get after it, whatever it may be. Personally, I stopped caring what people thought about me a long time ago, and I definitely stopped worrying about age or anything else when it comes to pursuing what God has laid upon your heart and is directing you to pursue. I encourage you, by God's direction, to do the same.
Why do the same? The answer is simple: You don't know what God has planned for your life.
