You may not realize initially how many other opportunities are wrapped up inside the first one. After you go through the first door, you'll then discover more doors automatically opening behind that one. One door leads you to another door, which leads to another door, and so one. It's like ten other boxes packed inside one box. The initial door that God opens is your access to more opportunities. But you must be willing to walk through the first one to get to the other good things God has for you.

George Foreman
George Foreman (1949–2025) war ein US-amerikanischer Schwergewichtsweltmeister im Boxen, Unternehmer und überkonfessioneller Prediger in Houston, Texas. Nach einem Bekehrungserlebnis 1977 gründete er eine christliche Gemeinde und stand öffentlich für die Abkehr von Aggression sowie für Beharrlichkeit und Disziplin. Bibellesern dient seine Biografie als Beispiel einer tiefgreifenden Lebenswende und des praktischen Festhaltens an christlichen Werten im Spannungsfeld von Spitzensport und Öffentlichkeit.
