A DAILY MESSAGE
WHAT ARE YOU BUILDING? Science tolls us that there is hut one universal substance. It is all things small, and all things great, for it is all things. This universal substance consists of atoms, and these atoms form centres which attract other atoms, and these, in their turn, grow into form. You are one—l am one—lor Man is the highest form off centralized atoms. He is a pivotal point of attraction. His thoughts are the power with which lie attracts other atoms. His will, is the force which compels them into form—and he, Ins place in life, and his environment, are the result. If you believe you lack the power to attract tbe things you want, you will drives that conviction through your entire system, and the atoms which form “You” begin to arrange themselves in accordance with your conviction, which is their direction, lor “You” are the architect.
Every thought, uttered or unuttcrcd, makes its impression on the atoms, and is a command‘which they can only obey. Your thoughts are creators; they create and build what you direct them to build and create. You may not be satisfied with what they build, but they work to plan and specifications, and you have supplied both. . You may not be conscious of ha ving prepared those plans and specifications, but that makes no difference —the building progresses from foundation- to coping-stone in accordance with your conscious or unconscious direction, for you are the architect. So train your mind to hold only such thoughts as will build the house you wish to dwell in, for ever. You can do it; you are doing it now; so why not build- a temple so fair and stately that all men shall take iiote ol it and many shall build alter your plan. N . —M. PRESTON STANLEY.
