Committing to being a guiding light in your community, especially as a Christian business leader, is a noble aspiration. To fulfill this role effectively, you must be a source of innovative ideas, capable of steering your community towards God’s vision. In the words of Nikola Tesla, the secret to becoming creative lies in solitude, in being alone. This solitude isn’t just physical but a mental space where ideas can be born. Embracing moments of seclusion allows for reflection and inspiration, enabling the generation of creative solutions and visionary concepts that can profoundly impact and guide your community.
Recognising the truth that “greater is he who is in me than he who is in the world,” Christians are called to operate on a plane that transcends the world’s limitations. You can grow and become quite powerful inside. So powerful that you can watch over your world and seemingly, effortlessly produce remarkable results. This realization should enable you to approach challenges with a faith-based perspective, knowing that the divine within you is greater than any worldly obstacle. However, in order to access this higher realm, it is necessary to cultivate moments of quiet solitude.
Just as Tesla emphasized the power of being alone for invention and enhanced creativity, you, too, must find solace in stillness. It is in these quiet moments that the greater within us becomes more discernible, guiding us to impactful ideas and actions that surpass worldly expectations. Your faith in God must become more than just a moral framework for you. It is more than just religious beliefs and affiliations. This is about becoming a vehicle through which God’s grace can shine into the dark world around you. You must make a commitment to discovering the powerful ideas that reside within your spirit.
