Secret to Remaining Unshaken Even When Crisis Strikes
Bible passage: Matthew 7:24-27
“24. "Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash."
There is a book titled ‘Rip Power’. The term ‘Rip’ means “to tear apart” or “to rip up.” It’s an expression used when something needs to be completely changed anew.
The author’s main point in ‘Rip Power’ is as follows: When we want to renew or change something, we often hear that we must first change our thinking. For example, "If you think positively every day, your life will become happy," or "If you want to be rich, you must first believe you can become rich." We often hear that to achieve something, the first step is to change our mindset. However, this book argues otherwise.
While changing one's thoughts is important, it insists that merely shifting to positive thinking is not enough to change one’s life.
