Sorry for twisting this a bit from the 'original' text. Bible boffins will know...
BUT there is a powerful message here not always brought across...
Words are powerful because they actually create our very reality. If things about us would not have words, words to create concepts, we'd be pretty much stuck in some infantile world.
As we learn with words to understand concepts we create awareness of what goes on about us - actually creating our reality.
This is maybe nothing new to mention - but, there is a snag. As we can create concepts with words of a positive nature, or an neural nature, we ALSO can create things of a negative/painful nature. One can not avoid to attach emotional context to the concepts we learn - and in deed those, that we create for ourselves.
The more we REPEAT such concepts the more real they become in 'our' world of understanding of what IS... or better, what we happen to THINK/FEEL what IS.
By now we aught to know, there is a difference:
"We don't see things as they are, we see things as WE are."
That essentially says it all - for me only?
The idea behind this post?
To create an awareness of the understanding, the more we use WORDS, spoken and/or written in the negative - the MORE they too will become part of our reality, of what we accept for being real - and not imagined...
BTW, this has nothing to do with DENIAL of things at large, but rather the 'groove' we may be 'grinding', the synapses we fire and create? by repeating over and over negative/painful ideas and concepts and so make them more and powerful in our perception, our reality.
Simpler put: Some things aught not be 'rubbed in' over and over.
It is the learning of 'letting go' of bad/negative stuff, in finding acceptance of WHAT IS - IS,
I.e. accepting things that can NOT be changed.
Very often then such 'things' will actually seize to 'EXIST' , simply accepting yet NOT by repressing them – or forcing them into 'oblivion' by denying or overcompensating for their (apparent?) existence.
