Breaking Limitations

[Of Special Interest to Young Men and Women]

ELIZABETH CARROLL DE WINDT

Limitation's are being broken today in every field. Athletic records are tumbling in every sport. Automation has made new records of achievement in the business world never before thought possible. Inventions have changed the pattern of men's lives.

However, some people are still accepting limitations in the mental realm, in spite of the frequent proofs that in this field too barriers are breaking down. It has been proved that we do not have to accept as law the verdict of past records, IQ tests, opinions of teachers or relatives, nor do we have to live within their limitations.

If one wonders where to turn for an increased manifestation of intelligence, the Bible gives the needed answer. Nearly two thousand years ago the people were amazed at the learning expressed by Christ Jesus. We read (John 7:15), "The Jews marvelled, saying. How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?" Jesus revealed God as the source of all intelligence when he answered, "My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me."
