As I reviewed my list, I paid attention to what feelings I had in my body. I had some feelings when I listed material things, yet, when I thought about people, health, and life experiences, they were almost overwhelming.

The feeling of gratitude is the key to experiencing a prosperity consciousness.

The author Melodie Beattie wrote: “Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity.... It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.”

A while ago I suggested creating a “Thank God I’m Rich” gratitude book …. Last night I realized mine is almost filled up and it’s time to get a new one!! How is yours doing?

To me, every day is Thanksgiving Day!!

Thank you for being in my life.

Now this dream was probably because of the wild storm we were experiencing outside, but it turned out to be delightful — and gave me food for thought.

Am I constantly chasing money? What does this mean? Where is my consciousness around money? Am I concerned with where my income is coming from, or how I am going to manifest more?

This dream was a vivid message to stand still in consciousness, and know I am always provided for -- Which reminds me of a poster I saw years ago – “Happiness is like a butterfly. Chase it and it will elude you, sit quietly and it will land on your shoulder.”

As we sit quietly in trust and knowingness, deepening our consciousness of inner peace in all situations, we can believe Jesus’ statement “Seek ye first the kingdom of God and its righteousness, and all will be added unto you.”

Thank God We’re Rich!!

There was once a wise woman traveling in the mountains who found a precious stone in a stream. The next day she met another traveler who was hungry, and she opened her bag to share her food. The hungry traveler saw the precious stone and asked if she might give it to him. She did so without hesitation. The traveler left, rejoicing in his good fortune. He knew the stone was worth enough to give him security for a lifetime. But only a few days later he came back to return the stone to the woman who had given it to him.

"I've been thinking," he said, "I know how valuable the stone is, but I'm giving it back in the hope that you can give me something even more precious. I want you to give me what you have within you that enabled you to give me the stone."

This story reminded me of visiting a friends home years ago, and admiring a beautiful and unusual tiger face bowl. She took it off the wall and handed it to me. “You really want to give this away?” I asked. “Yes” she said “I have a policy – if someone really admires something, I know it is supposed to go to them.” I was so amazed at how unattached she was. As I looked around her home, I realized I had always seen beautiful things there . It wasn’t a sacrifice to give things away, she was making room for something new to enter her life.

Both women, the one in the story above, and my friend, knew they would always be provided for. They had no need to horde things or save things. They knew something else would come in to take its place.

Your assignment this week is to give something precious away, and give it in Love. Let yourself KNOW you are always provided for. Trust!

Thank God we’re rich!!
