The doorbell rang at 5:30 p.m. I was on day 36 of the prosperity plan as outlined in John Randolph Price's wonderful book, The Abundance Book. The meditation for that day was: "My inner supply instantly and constantly takes on form and experience according to my needs and desires, and as the Principle of Supply in action, it s impossible for me to have any needs or unfulfilled desires."
On Sunday evening, I had made a list of what I wanted to accomplish personally for the week. On the list was to get my pool squared away for the winter. I needed to assess what pool covers I had, and in order to do that, I wanted a strong man to get all the boxes down that had all the covers in them.The boxes were heavy and cumbersome, and were on a high shelf in my garage.
The man at the door was a gentleman that helps me with heavy stuff in the yard. He needed a letter written for him. Perfect! I said, "Great! I need some boxes taken down from the shelf. Would you please do that while I write the letter?"
The boxes came down, the letter was written, and I was reminded of the meditation for the day. Our good can come in so many ways when we are truly committed to having our lives work! It was so easy! What I know is that if I had been thinking "I can't, I don't have, etc." it would not have crossed my mind to ask him for help.
Today, I invite you to make a commitment to hold the thought that your "inner supply" is at work for you, fulfilling all of your needs and desires!

Let it go!
I began to sense that the romantic relationship that I had been involved in was coming to a close. I really didn't want to accept what I knew to be true. One day a beautiful client brought me a piece of paper on which were the wise words of T. D. Jakes. I knew when I read these words, that my client was a messenger, letting me know that what I sensed was indeed right on and that it was time to let the relationship go. I share this with you today in hopes that you are walking in integrity with your guidance, and enjoying the great freedom and empowerment that results.
"There are people who can walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you, let them walk. I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone. When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. ....People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay. Let them go. And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person, it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead. You've got to know when it's dead. You've got to k now when it's over. Let me tell you something...I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift; I believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful.... And it it takes too much sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to stay. Let them go!! If you are holding onto something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to ....LET IT GO!!! If you are holding on to past hurts or pains...LET IT GO!!If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth...LET IT GO!!! If someone has angered you...LET IT GO!!! If you are holding onto some thoughts of revenge...LET IT GO!!! If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction....LET IT GO!!! If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents>>>LET IT GO!!! If you have a bad attitude...LET IT GO!!!If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better...LET IT GO!!! If you are stuck in the past...LET It GO!!! If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship...LET IT GO!!! If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves...LET IT GO!!! If you're feeling depressed and stressed..... LET IT GO!!!" T.D. Jakes

Stand at the Doorway of your Thoughts!
Stand at the doorway of your mind and allow only thoughts of that which you desire to experience cross your mental threshold.
Just as Pavlov, the father of unconscious conditioned response, trained his dogs to associate the ringing of a bell with the appearance of food, you can train your mind to associate each new day with infinite possibilities, and the belief that you can have whatever it is that you desire. As automatic as the dogs’ salivating when they heard the bell ringing, you will automatically assume that there are infinite possibilities for the new day and proceed to create your good.
You must stand at the doorway of your mind, and allow only good to enter. Remembering that thoughts are things, and whatever is in your consciousness is what will show up in your world, you will begin to cherish and protect your mind as your most valuable asset in creating your life.
One night many years ago I was driving to a class on my way back from therapy in Dallas. My night vision wasn’t the greatest at that juncture in my life, and I was still spacey from doing some deep inner child healing. (We didn't have the techniques to close the inner child files and be sure that a person is fully back in the present that we have now.) I took the exit and then turned before I had crossed the median without realizing my mistake. In a moment I noticed that there were headlights coming my way in the lane in which I was traveling. I assessed the lane situation and realized that I had turned too quickly and was going southbound on a northbound side of the street. I simply made a u-turn and got on the side of the street where I needed to be. Everything was fine. No big deal. The oncoming cars were still about 2 blocks away.
Suddenly, “the voice” started. You know the voice. It is the voice of the inner critic. The words I heard were, “You can’t do anything right! Now you are going to be late! You should have been paying more attention!” I realized that these thoughts were not rational. They were how one of my parents taught me to talk to myself. I began to shake with anxiety.
Then I took charge of the situation. At the top of my lungs I shouted, “SHUT UP!!” The voice stopped, and my body calmed down.
The few moments of discomfort were surely worth the lesson that I learned. I spoke my word. I chose what was real for me. I decided how my world would be. And I came to peace.
Today you can stand at the doorway of your thoughts and create the world you would like to live in. Enjoy your life. It is your choice!
