Round 5 Day 49

The other day I was having a conversation with someone who was angry that the CEO of WalMart made so much more than his employees. He kept saying it wasn’t fair.

Now I don’t know anything about the WalMart situation, but I do know this: Life never promised fairness – and in Truth, it’s about consciousness. The CEO of WalMart makes what he makes because he has the consciousness to do so.

If we are treating to be better paid, yet we are putting down people who are, what do you think the Universe is hearing? We’ve probably got more feeling attached to the put-downs than we do to our Treatments. The Universe responds to our dominant thoughts and feelings. Let go of ‘cursing’ anyone who makes more than you. Think of these people with love – you might even say “If they can do it, so can I.”

I just remembered a wonderful cartoon I saw many years ago in The New Yorker magazine. Two bums are standing on the sidewalk watching a Rolls Royce drive by. One turns to the other and says “There, but for me, go I.”

Thank God We’re Rich!

Round 5, Day 48

Cathy wrote: “trust is the key- perhaps hard to do at first- but like everything we practice, it gets easier. To the point where you wonder what you did before!
Kind of like microwaves and cell phones- what did we ever do before them?? LOL”

Good point Cathy!! Can you get yourself to the point where you can rely on The Divine as much as you can rely on your microwave and cellphone!!

I’ve been living in Trust most of my adult life – or at least since I got into this teaching. Granted, there are occasionally some times when I let myself get freaked out, but at the last minute something wonderful always happens. I call this a John Wayne consciousness – you know, the wagons are circled, there are more bad guys than good guys – death looks immanent -- and suddenly John Wayne and the Calvary are coming over the mountain – just in time! Whew!

It is never too late to change your mind about the outcome! Let the Law be John Wayne for you if you must, it’s better than succumbing to fear. However, sooner or later, you’ll realize you have the Power within you and don’t need to be rescued!!

Thank God We’re Rich!!

Round 5, Day 47

Dr. Ernest Holmes
Science of Mind

When we learn to trust the Universe, we shall be happy, prosperous and well. We must learn to come under that Divine Government, and accept the fact that Nature's table is ever filled.

Never was there a Cosmic famine. "The finite alone has wrought and suffered, the Infinite lies stretched in smiling repose." God is always God.


Trusting is a key ingredient to manifestation. We do our spiritual work, our treasure maps, our affirmations, and then fall into the world way of thinking. I know there are facts being broadcast to us from every direction and these days we might find it hard to rise above the wave of negativity – however, until we can fully embody the above Truth, we can say “Regardless of appearances, I can Trust The Divine! In trusting, I am happy, prosperous and well.”

Round 5, Day 46

Yesterday, Harold e-mailed me with some affirmations he uses:

“On my screensaver: In wisdom, faith, and Belief, with all knowing, in God's own perfect time, for the highest good in use, $1,000,000 manifests to me for self expression of my true goodness in spiritual nature.
This is what I write on all checks I write to remind myself of what I am really in the process of when a check is written: T-Y-F-I-A-Y-G = Thank you father I accept your grace”

Good ones! On my screensaver I have:
“Relax, you can let Me handle the details today. Love, God”

Anything we do to remind ourselves of the consciousness we are embodying is a good thing!! And we have to do the thing or say the words that our subjective mind can relate to. In other words, adopting someone else’s affirmations might work for a little while, but the ones you come up with on your own, and really resonate with, will work the best for you.

Spend some time today writing affirmations in your prosperity notebook, and notice how you’re feeling when you write them.
Thank God we are rich!!

Round 5, Day 44

Recently I heard Dr. Michael Beckwith say: "Worry is like paying interest on money you haven't borrowed."

Dr. Holmes calls worry 'negative prayer'.

What are you worrying about today? Take a breath. Is this thing you are worried about really the Truth?

If not, then declare the Truth knowing all the power of the Universe is behind your words!! This is really a rich, friendly Universe, and It is giving to you every moment of your life. Open your eyes to see your abundant life!

Sunday, February 22, 2009

Round 5, Day 43

A good day to pray:

Today I move into the centre of my Being, awakening my conscious awareness of my True Self. This Self is the Source of all good.

With eager expectancy I declare my Good is at hand. I know it is, because my Good is God. There is no place where God is not. As I contemplate my Good, my faith gets stronger. I can Trust Principle to work. It always has, and always will.

All of Life is conspiring to make my life an experience of Opulence and Joy. I gratefully accept this as my Truth!

And so it is.

Saturday, February 21, 2009

Round 5, Day 42

"If God said, 'Rumi, pay homage to everything that has helped you enter my arms,' there would not be one experience of my life, not one thought, not one feeling, not any act I would not bow to."
--Rumi


Today allow yourself to pay homage to everything in your life – yes, even that which you call negative. All challenges are really questions waiting for your attention. If you have lack – perhaps the question is “What is the true nature of supply?”

Let yourself pay homage to the Questions waiting to be revealed to you.

And Thank God We’re Rich!!

Friday, February 20, 2009

Round 5, Day 41

We can make bigger buckets. We cannot make a bigger law. The law knows nothing about big and little. It knows to do. Since there is such a Law and we are always using it, we are all receiving from life an objective equivalent of our inward mental attitudes. If we wish more we must increase our expectancy, we must identify ourselves with more. The law being absolute, can produce what we call a big thing as easily as what we term a small thing. Mind is a mirror, automatically reflecting our images of thought, be that good, bad or indifferent, large, medium or small, as we measure things.
Ernest Holmes

This is a great quote. And what ‘more’ should we identify ourselves with?? Why God of course!! God being all – there could never be a lack of God!

Use your Prosperity Notebook today to journalize about the everpresent giving Nature of The Divine. What you contemplate, you will become.

Round 5, Day 40

Knowing that we get our basic money beliefs from our parents, I was journaling about mine. My parents lived rich, but seemed to always have money problems.

I remember a time when my Mother worked for weeks to make a fancy dress for a party and it was gorgeous! The night of the party my Mother looked so beautiful. They were going to the party with friends who were coming over for cocktails beforehand. When the doorbell rang, I ran to answer it, my Mother close behind me. “Oh Fran, your dress is lovely” the woman said. I piped up proudly “She made it!” My Mother put her hand on the back of my neck, dug in her long red nails, and told me to go to my room. I couldn’t figure out why she was mad at me for saying she had made her dress.

Now I know what one of my parent’s prosperity problems was. If I had been smart at the age of 10 I could have shouted “Stop Competing!”

I wonder how many our ideas of prosperity are brought about by competition. Your friend gets a new car, or a new house, new clothes, hairdo, or electronic toy, and now you want that or something better. All the videos that came out after The Secret have fancy cars, and mansions, jewels and piles of money – telling us we can have what ever we want – and making us feel less than if we don’t have or want those things. Competition.

I once saw a coffee table book where the photographer had people all over the world, take everything out of their front rooms and put it in their front yard, and stand in back of their possessions. There were pictures of people with big screen TV’s, huge armchairs, plants, microwaves, boxes and bottles galore. And there were also pictures of people with some mats, bowls, firewood, clothes, a couple of pigs and chickens. The funny thing was, the less people had, the more they were smiling!

It is not the material possessions that make us happy. It’s our experience of life. Use your prosperity journal this week to think about where you might be in competition. Is this where you really want to be? What quality of life would really make you feel prosperous?

And Thank God we’re rich.

Round 5, Day 38 & 39

I’ve been thinking about you today. Thinking about how wonderful it is to be on a Prosperity Path with so many people, and how our combined focus is working not only for ourselves, but for each other, and for countless others we don’t even know about!

In the children’s book “Dinotopea,” #1 of the Codes the dinosaurs live by is:
One raindrop raises the sea.

This is what we’re doing – raising the sea. As each of us embody a prosperity consciousness, we are raising the level of the collective consciousness. We are making a difference in our world!

Thank you for doing this work with me. I know it is appreciated!!

Affirmation for today:
I am willing to share my consciousness with others. As I help others prosper, I prosper, and this is a Good Thing.

Thank God We’re Rich!!

Monday, February 16, 2009

Round 5, Day 37

I was thinking about ‘vibrations’ today, and remembered a story about Dr. Ernest Holmes. George Bendall lived with Dr. Holmes after he was widowed. He wrote that sometimes he would come home and be met at the door by Dr. Holmes, who would say “Find where I prayed, George.” Dr. Holmes believed Spiritual Mind Treatment created a consciousness that set up a vibration around the one praying that was palpable to those who were sensitive enough. And that vibration would attract the desired manifestation.

All thinking creates vibration – if we are dwelling on lack, we will attract more lack. We have to raise that vibration by allowing ourselves to breathe deeply and move into a consciousness of Love. One way to do this is by thinking of a time when you really felt all was well with your world. Go ahead – do that – and then from this place, smile and say this affirmation:

I have a prosperity consciousness and am increasingly magnetic to money!


Thank God we’re rich!

Sunday, February 15, 2009

Round 5, Day 36

A good day to pray:

I am surrounded by the opulent nature of the Universe. It surrounds me with the beauty of nature. It fills me up with the abundance of air. It supports me with the abundance of material objects in my life. The Universe is my all-sufficiency.

As I look around me, I realize that whether I have judged my surroundings to be good or bad, there is still more than enough. I declare right now: I am ready to experience more than enough Good – more than enough God – in my life today. I see God as Love, Life, Peace, Joy, Harmony, Health, Wealth and so much more. I move forward along the Path of my Life with an eager expectancy of all good showing up all along the way.

I am so grateful to be walking this Prosperity Path in consciousness. I am grateful I have countless others walking this Path with me. Together we are changing the consciousness of humanity from one of lack to one of plenty. We are changing the emotional landscape from one of fear to one of gratitude.

God is so good in our lives today and always, and in all ways! I release these words to the Law of Mind, knowing they are already so. And so It is.

Round 5, Day 35

The actor Jim Carrey told an interviewer that he had written himself a cheque for $1,000,000 many years before he became famous. He carried it in his wallet and would look at it whenever he thought about it …. We know where his intention got him!!

Let’s try this ourselves! Write out a cheque in the amount you’ve been focusing on, sign it “With love from the Universe” or “Your Universal Source” or something that feels good to you, and put it in your wallet. Look at it when ever you can, breathe deeply, smile and expect to receive!

Thank God We’re Rich!!

Friday, February 13, 2009

Round 5, Day 34

As we enter this Love Weekend – ask yourself “What is my relationship to money?”

Many of us have a love/hate relationship with it. We love it when we have it, and hate it when we don’t.

This weekend, allow yourself to Love yourself every time you use or think about money. Love yourself even when you buy something you think you shouldn’t. Love yourself while you are paying your bills. Love yourself while you are giving your tithe at church. Love your money and it will love you back!!

Remember, as Dr. Raymond Charles Barker said “Money is a symbol of God in action in our lives.”

Thursday, February 12, 2009

Round 5, Day 33

Judy sent this yesterday:
“I read in Tom Johnson's writing: “You don't Have to Wait - 'Treatment is not for the purpose of making anything happen but to permit that which already is to move into expression and fulfillment NOW. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO WAIT!"

Thank you Judy for this great reminder!! All our work in consciousness is to permit that which already IS to move into expression in our lives!! YES!!

Contemplate this idea today: You are already rich beyond measure. All of your needs are met and more. Life is continually giving you great gifts of everything your heart desires.

Write these ideas in your prosperity notebook, and as you do, listen to the thoughts that come up. Record any “yea, buts” and after you have, cross them out, and rewrite the above ideas in your own words.

Now – open your Mind, your Heart and your Arms to receive!! In your mind’s eye, see all of us doing this, with wonderful smiles on our faces.

Thank God We’re Rich!!

Wednesday, February 11, 2009


Round 5, Day 32

Today’s reading in the 365 Science of Mind is perfect for today:

I am a Creative Center

Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
–Psalm 35:5


Let your consciousness rise above the sense of separation from the power of God, and in a few moments you will feel as though you were sitting in the midst of an infinite sea of unobstructed Life. This place in Mind where you are now, is the Source of all action, the center of all creativity. It is also the innermost part of your own being.

Just as a plant turns to the sun, your thoughts turn to the Power and draw It down through your being, causing It to manifest through your word. In this act you are not losing your identity, you are more intensely self-conscious than ever before, but you are conscious in a larger, less obstructed manner. Whatever you decree, state or affirm from this altitude of thought will produce definite results. The Law of Life exists in all of us at all times, and we are using It whether or not we are conscious of the fact. If we wish to make a specific use of this Law of Life, then we must use It specifically.

I now climb a ladder of thought that takes me above all confusion. Climbing joyously, I pass through the clouds of fear and doubt. I behold light everywhere. I sense the enveloping presence of Love everywhere. The good I desire, I now affirm and accept, knowing my definite intentions produce definite results.

Thank God for Ernest Holmes!!

Round 5, Day 31

When wanting to buy something or go somewhere, have you ever heard yourself saying “But I only have ________?” (a certain amount of money) I call this “the last dollar” consciousness.

Truth is, we can never spend ‘our last dollar.’ It might seem like it, yet we live in an ever increasing abundant flow of good.

Now, I’m not saying to spend indiscriminately, I’m saying don’t spend with the consciousness of fear that you won’t have enough, that if you spend it, you won’t get any more. Remember fear is an attracting energy, and if our attention is on lack, that’s the energy we will attract more of.

As you spend money today think “There’s always more where this came from!

And be grateful to The Source. Thank God We’re Rich!

Monday, February 09, 2009

Round 5, Day 30

Whoo Hoo – We’re at our half-way point in this campaign. How are you doing?

I was listening to an interview with an artist this morning, and the interviewer asked the artist a question that keeps coming back to me as a question for our lives … especially our prosperity consciousness at the moment:

“Where would “letting go” take you?

What if we really did let go of the thoughts and feelings of lack and limitation, of fear because of what we’re hearing about the economy, of shakiness around our jobs, etc. The thoughts and feelings about not having enough, doing enough or being enough.

Where would Letting Go take you?

It would take us closer to our Truth.

Good thing to ponder and perhaps write about in our prosperity notebooks.
Thank God we’re rich!!

Sunday, February 08, 2009

Round 5, Day 28 & 29

Oops, forgot yesterday … well, today is a double whammy then!!

I’ve been playing with affirmations lately for my Treasure Map … the best one so far is:

“My income effortlessly increases whether I am working, playing or sleeping.”

And now, a very special Spiritual Mind Treatment for today:

TREATMENT FOR SUPPLY
by Dr. Ernest Holmes

A treatment after this manner should prove the law of abundance in the life of those who use such statements, and believe in them:

"I am surrounded by pure Spirit, by God, the Living Spirit. My thought is God thought, and it is the law unto that thing where unto it is spoken. Everything I do shall be a success. I am led, guided and inspired by the Living Spirit of Love and of right action. I am compelled to move in the right direction and to always know what to do, where, and how to do it.

"I am surrounded by right action. I am filled with the consciousness of right action. Right action is success in all I undertake to do. I am successful in all my undertakings, and I am compensated for all my efforts. I am surrounded by Substance, which is always taking the form of supply and always manifesting Itself to me in the form of whatever my need may be at the time.

"I always have an abundance of money and an abundance of whatever it takes to make life happy and opulent. There is a continuous movement toward me of supply, of money, of all that I need to express the fullest life, happiness and action.

"I have an inner understanding of my place in the Universe. I know it is unique. The Divine has not incarnated in anyone else in just the same individual way that It has in me. I am unique and forever individualized. Therefore, I do not need to imitate anyone or to long for the good that belongs to another. All good is now mine and is now manifest in my experience. I do not compete with anyone, for I am and remain forever myself. This self is united with all selves, but is always an individual and a unique self.

"There is that in me which all people recognize as worth while and desirable, and everyone whom I meet loves this self of mine and recognizes its worth. I draw all toward me and those whom I can benefit and those who can benefit me are irresistibly drawn toward me. I do not strain, will or coerce. I know. The Truth makes me free from the fear of poverty or bondage, and emancipates me from the thought of limitation. I see that money, like everything else that is desirable, must be a spiritual idea, and I know that I have this idea right in my mind at this moment, I shall always have this idea of abundance. It is mine and I take it.

"The opportunity for self-expression and compensation is always open to me and I am at all times compelled to know, accept and operate upon this opportunity. I have abundance because I am abundance. "All that the Father hath is mine."

And So It Is.
Amen.

Round 5, Day 27

HeartMath, one of the most widely recognized research institutes on the heart, has shown that the heart has an energy field that has 5000 more times energy than the brain. 5000 times !!!

Ernest Holmes wrote that it is thought plus feeling that creates the spark of manifestation. How many of us think we want to be wealthy, but do not have our heart's power behind our desires? Our mind creates a vision around our desires. We can imagine what we want. Feelings add power to our thoughts, they empower our motivation to succeed. Feelings let us put ourselves fully in that picture.

For example, which has more power: I am treating for a new car, and I see that car in my mind's eye in the dealership -- Or – I see and feel myself sitting in the driver's seat, listening to the great sound system, delighting in the power of the engine under my foot?

This weekend, your assignment is to be in your financial vision with a smile on your face. Really feel what it would feel like to sit down and pay bills with no worries at all. Feel what it would feel like to go into any store and buy what you want without looking at the price tag hoping it wasn't going to be too expensive. Feel yourself doing something really fun with your money instead of worrying about survival.

And all through your weekend, Feel Grateful! Thank God We're Rich!!

Thursday, February 05, 2009

Round 5, Day 26

Wayne Dyer writes: Prosperity in the form of wealth works exactly the same as everything else. You will see it coming into your life when you are unattached to needing it."

Unattached to needing it! That’s a hard one for someone who’s experiencing the current fear of lack. However, it made me think of an acronym I learned years ago … Need stands for “Never Ending Excessive Demands.” If we are keep coming to the Law with the consciousness of need, we are actually telling It we want more neediness!

How do you get to the place of desire without attachment? You state your intentions into the Law, and TRUST It to work for you. You let go and let God.

Thank God We’re Rich!!

Wednesday, February 04, 2009

Round 5, Day 25

This showed up on my FaceBook this morning – it is the perfect thing for today in our current Thank God We’re Rich Campaign:

“When you ask, it is always given. There are three steps to this creative process. The first step is: Life causes you to ask. Some say, "I don't think I should ask for so much", and we say, ‘you can't help it.’

The entire Universe has been established, and when you are this genius leading edge creator that you are; and you are surrounded by details, comparisons, experiences, as you're exposed to the variety and details of life; your thinking mechanism automatically comes to new conclusions constantly of what would be improvement. And that is such a good thing. Even if you are a one celled organism, that's true of you. Even if you are a one celled amoeba in the ocean, you are exposed to experience that is causing you to come to new conclusions and the Source within you turns undivided attention to that new
conclusion and that is what causes the evolution of all species, you see.
--Abraham-Hicks


Have you felt ashamed of wanting the good you want? Have you thought of yourself as selfish? Many people think “How can I make an intention to be wealthy or have more good when so many have so little.” Regardless of appearances, the one thing we ALL have is choice. All of us choose to have or not have on a moment to moment basis.

Write your thoughts about this in your prosperity notebook – and then -
Allow yourself to walk proudly as a genius leading edge creator!! Our desires to have more, to be more, to do more are natural. Through our desires that we turn into intentions we are creating a world that works – not just for us – but for everyone!!

Round 5, Day 24

This morning I woke to a beautiful sunrise and watched as the day got lighter and brighter. I noticed buds on trees and bushes. The grasses and various plants looked so much greener. The birds sounded happy. Ahhh … it is so awesome how a little sunlight can make us feel good and we can see things so much better!

This is what happens when we allow ourselves to turn to the Eternal Light that is within us, and allow It to shine brightly through our lives. We appreciate the good we have now, and begin to have a sense of eager anticipation of the good that is coming. We feel a sense of excitement coming over us, and we can’t help but smile.

Breathe deeply and imagine yourself standing in The Light. Contemplate the good that’s in your life now, and the good that’s coming. If you’d like, write about this in your Prosperity Notebook.

Thank God We’re Rich!

Monday, February 02, 2009

Round 5, Day 23

As I was walking this morning, I thought about all the people who have requested Spiritual Mind Treatment (affirmative prayer) for their prosperity lately. I have recommended joining our campaign, yet very few have.

Only a handful are reporting their demonstrations on this campaign. …. So here’s a question for you: Are you really willing to do the work to change your thinking – thereby changing your financial life?
Our prosperity is all about consciousness! Everything is!

I honour the ones who have requested Treatment, and am grateful to be of service, yet I wonder if that’s still a way to get somebody else to do the work for us? Yes, Treatment works, absolutely – however it will only work at the level of our acceptance.

How much good are you willing to accept?

I know we are being bombarded on all sides by doom and gloom predictions, by stories of companies having troubles, by the stories told by our family and friends. To each of these I say & please join me in doing so:

“Regardless of appearances, God is my Source. Money flows to me easily and effortlessly. All of my bills are paid in full. I live in grace and gratitude.

I know this is true for me and for all the participants of this campaign! Thank God We’re Rich!!”

Sunday, February 01, 2009

Round 5, Day 22

Another good day to pray:

Gratefully I recognize the Truth of my being. All there is – is God. God is Divine Energy – the Source of all Good. It is more than I can possibly imagine. It is everywhere. It is all powerful. It is all knowing. It is at the very center of my Self.

Today as I contemplate the nature of God, I understand at a deeper level that I am a co-creator in this world. As I look around me I am so grateful for all I have directed Divine Energy to be. As I go within, I am grateful for the wellspring of Peace I find there.

I choose now to dwell in this Peace. Here I am fear-free. I have no problems or challenges. Here I can hear the guidance that is always being given. This Guidance whispers softly “Trust – Trust – Trust.” I breathe deeply and choose to do this.

As I breathe in Trust, I remember my intentions for this campaign with an awareness that all I can imagine for myself is what the Divine is working on with me. I relax and feel the creative Energy flow.

Thank God I know my Good is flowing easily. Thank God I trust the Law for me and for everyone else in this campaign.

Gratefully I release these words knowing they are already done. And so it is.
