𝗡𝗲𝗵𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗮𝗵 𝟲:𝟯 (𝗡𝗜𝗩)? “𝗜 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗹𝘆: ‘𝗜 𝗮𝗺 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗴𝗼 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗜 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂?’”

You are the builder of your life.

So I ask you—what are you building? Are you building a cave… or a mansion? A tower… or an empire? A shop… or a mall? A stall… or a kingdom?

I’ve come to understand this truth: I’m building a legacy. I’m raising a tower. I’m establishing a kingdom. I’m expanding an empire.

That’s the mindset of someone who knows their assignment. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴—𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗜’𝗺 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸. 𝗜’𝗺 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹. 𝗦𝗼 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻—𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗻𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗲, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗻𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

Notice this: Those who build small things can easily be pulled away. They pause, they wander, they lose focus. But those who are building something great—something that will outlive them—do not permit distraction.

Jesus Himself said in 𝗟𝘂𝗸𝗲 𝟭𝟰:𝟮𝟴 (𝗘𝗥𝗩): “𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗮 𝘁𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿. 𝗪𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗶𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗶𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝘁?”

So I ask you again—𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴? I’ll say it twice because it matters: What are you building?

Build wisely. Build boldly. And don’t come down—until it’s finished.
