It only takes six inches

The difference was just 6 inches. Everything changed, everything. your whole life changed all because of 6 inches… no not on a field, or a car sliding into you nor was it 6 inches from meeting the person who could change your life… Im talking about the 6 inches between your ears… That space changes everything. 

 

We are all looking for wealth, insight, wisdom, secrets to success… the ingredients for the perfect life. Truth is, we have them inside us, we just have to be willing to mind them (no, not mine them as in dig them up) but rather mind them. 

Your life is the way it is simply because of the space between your ears and what you fill your mind with and what you tell yourself. If you can conquer that you win. Your attitude and outlook change drastically and you begin the ride of a lifetime. 

 

What does scripture say about words… well plenty. But lets focus on just two thoughts. Jesus is the word. Let that sink in. 

Jesus isn’t the emotions, the mindset, the idea, the hope, the goal etc… he is the word. How amazing that God wants his son, the son of God, the messiah, the king of kings seen as the word. Called the word. This shows quite a bit of Gods heart as to the power of words and the part it plays in our lives.

Secondly we see in the very beginning that God created all things by the power of his words. He spoke and the worlds were formed. He spoke and the lion roared. He spoke and the volcanoes erupted. he spoke and the plants burst into life. 

 

I know what you are thinking… yeah yeah yeah… this is the old say a bunch of positive crap and it magically makes everything better.

Well when you put it like that… it sounds pretty crass and old news.

But if I said Faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God… well lets take a closer look at that. no matter what endeavor you find yourself in there has to be a foundation, ground rules if you will. Those start with what you are willing to tell yourself and what you are willing to believe. 

 

Faith is simply speaking Gods word into your life. Simple, profound, life changing and oh yea… not always that easy to do. But again it is like trying to start an engine that runs on gas to refine crude oil into gas. You gotta take the chance of just going for it with the little bit of gas you have left in your life. 

 

Look can I just be brutally honest with those of you listening. You want to know the missing ingredient in most mens lives…. ok, the spiritual ingredient that makes everything else just sweet and rewarding? It is putting the hard work and time into your mind. Prayer changes your mind, scripture changes your mind, meditation changes your mind… and it takes time. How many men have sat in my office and they complain about their lives, marriages, work, health, habits… name it. And they put in zero time into the mind. Or worse yet they put in 30 minutes a day and after 15 years wonder why life still sucks… Because sometimes it takes more than 30 minutes a day… it takes an hour, 2 hours or more. Do you want the word to rock your world? Then control the space between your ears.
