NEVER FEAR BEING DIFFERENT
Whenever you feel anxious or apprehensive about
approaching a task in unique and unusual ways, consider this. Years ago, Frank Lloyd Wright was given the
impossible task of building the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo. No comparable construction job had ever been
undertaken. With vision and patience, Wright
laid plans for the immense building in a land of recurrent tremors and
earthquakes.
While carefully assessing the situation, he discovered
that only eight feet below the surface lay a massive bed of soft mud. His mind immediately embraced an
unconventional thought. Why not float
the gigantic structure on this mud cushion to absorb the shock of earthquakes? After four years of extensive work, amid significant
skepticism and ridicule, the incredibly difficult building was completed. Soon a day arrived in which its stability
would be tested. The worst earthquake in
fifty-two years caused many Japanese houses and buildings to tumble and fall in
ruins. But the Imperial Hotel stood and
survived, because it had been constructed to adjust to the seismic tremors of the
earth.
At all costs, avoid herd mentality.
Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and
please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING.
Maranatha!
