“The Prodigy” by Amy Wallace is a compelling biography that delves into the life of William James Sidis, who is said to be the most intelligent human that ever lived. William was born in 1898 to Russian immigrant parents in New York City. From a very young age, it became evident that Sidis possessed an astonishing level of intelligence.
As an 18-months child, William James Sidis could already read The New York Times. At the age of eight he could speak fluent French, German, Russian, Turkish, Armenian, Latin, and his native language, English. At 9 years of age, he created a new language called “vendergood,” studied by linguists and declared to be complete, correct, and fascinating.
When he was only 9 years old, he was accepted into Harvard University. At the age of twelve, he gave his first lecture to the scientific community and the press. After graduating cum laude and impressing academics, William began to resent the constant scrutiny of his life that made him feel like a lab rat.
At age 16, he began to rebel against his parents and the government. He refused to finish his law degree and stopped his education. As the press began to report negative things about him, William Sidis changed his name and began to live a low profile life, doing random jobs. He eventually died from stroke in 1944 when he was just 46 years old.
William Sidis died with his great potentials, mostly untapped and locked away within him. Who knows the amazing contributions he could have made to the world, if only he had continued to grow and had fully explored his potentials.
Dr. Myles Munroe once said that the wealthiest spot on this planet are the graveyards, where buried beneath the soil are dreams that never came to pass, songs that were never sung, books that were never written, ideas that were never shared, visions that never became reality, inventions that were never made, and purposes that were never fulfilled.
The truth is, only a small percentage of the billions of people on earth today, will achieve a significant portion of their true potential because only those few are willing to pay the price of growth.
As believers we all carry an enviable destiny within us. Through redemption we are destined to be the light of the world and Jesus said we shall do even greater works than He did. However, to fully manifest this promised greatness, we must work on our spiritual growth and personal development.
The adventure of the believer does not just stop at redemption, we must grow to become spiritual giants conquering great territories for God’s Kingdom. Though the land was promised to the children of Israel, they had to work to possess it (Deut. 11:24).
As we give ourselves wholly to serving God’s purposes, our great potentials will soon manifest and our profiting will appear for all to see [1Timothy 4:15 ].
PRAYER: Lord, I thank you for the grace to continually feed on Your Word, so that I can receive the strength I need to grow spiritually and fully manifest the great potentials within me in Jesus Name.
