Each day we awaken to a visible world which operates flawlessly by invisible forces. The tides, air pressure, winds, temperature, precipitation all affect global harvests which affect global economies which affect every person on earth. But as usual it is God who makes the first move. He spoke the worlds into existence by the breath of His mouth. He set everything we see in motion and then He gave us the stewardship over it.
Since we are created in the image of God He wants us to follow His example of creation every day of our lives. He wants us to create. How? With our words. And not just any words, but with inspired words. Words that paint the world you want, not the world you have. Words which pre-play successes, not re-play failures. Your words create your world. They are seeds which come back to you in the form of blessings or curses.
As the architect of your life you develop your personal metropolis. What does your “life-city” look like? Is it filled with huge bridges, tall doors and super highways? Are there beautiful gardens, prosperous neighborhoods, lush parks and elegant buildings? Perhaps your city is different. Some people have a city which looks more like a ghetto overrun with weeds, pot holes and graffiti-sprayed walls. Other cities lay in rubble like some of the mid-east desert cities we see on the news. And still others may have a Gotham City; dark, mysterious and threatening.
Your words and subsequent decisions have created the city you live in today. But regardless of the present condition of your city, you remain the creator, the Mayor if you will. Now please listen carefully. If your city is in trouble, it is not too late to begin a new city-wide re-development and infrastructure program! You can change anything and everything. How did NYC go from being one of the most dangerous cities in the world to the #1 SAFEST big city in the US? The Mayor, (Giuliani at the time) made a decision. He decided that it was time to clean up the city. And he did. You can too. Use your words.
Today your words are attracting some people and repelling others. Your words are attracting opportunities or keeping them afar off. Begin building the kind of city you want to live in every day. It’s your life and your choice. PRG
