Power Of The Mind, You Can Always Get What You Are Looking For!

Republished from The Secret

I’d lost my watch that I held very dear to me about three years back at school.

Only a few months before the incident, had I started reading The Magic with an open mind. I was very excited to know if it would work.

The first thing I did was find my copy of The Magic book. I made it a practice to visualize myself having gotten the watch back on my wrist, feeling as joyous as I could for having gotten back my watch and telling my cabin mate about it. I also told her that I’d get it back in three days.

After a day of thorough searching in all places I could think of, I did not find it but I still hadn’t lost hope. My friend had just gotten got a missing book back from a cupboard at school, although I was nowhere around that area when I lost my watch and they don’t usually put lost objects in that cupboard. However, I just knew it had to be there.

I had to talk to my teacher before I could scrounge the cupboard for it.

To my delight it was right there! It was found on only my the third day of LOA practice!

However trivial the incident might be, it shows how powerful your instincts are and how they’re guided by your visualization.

To my friend, from whose book I learnt about gratitude and LOA, I shall forever be grateful!

You Are Unique — Believe It!

Republished from rickwarren

“My only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God's grace.” (Acts 20:24 NIV) 

 

You’re the only person in the world who can live your life. No one else can live your life for you, and no one else is in competition with you to complete the task Jesus gave you.

 

Take a deep breath, and rest in the truth that God created you with such a unique mix of spiritual gifts, passions, abilities, personality, and experiences that only you can be you. No one else can duplicate you, and you cannot, should not, imitate another. You are an original masterpiece from the Master’s hand.

 

Your uniqueness means you’re the only one who can fulfill the mission that God assigned for you to complete.

 

God’s graduate assistant, Paul, says, “I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God's grace” (Acts 20:24 NIV). 

 

We shouldn’t waste a precious minute of life doing things that don’t matter if that means the most important thing we can do is left undone.

 

It’s never too late to start faithfully pursuing the mission God has set before you — the one he designed you to complete. 

 

You may think you don’t have skills God can use, but the truth is, God designed you with the very skills he needs in you to do what he asks of you. You are uniquely, wonderfully, and fearfully made.

 

Talk About It

• Everything God has done for you, including redeeming you from your sinful failures, will support your success and bring glory to God. Think back on your life. In what specific ways has God been preparing you to accomplish his goal for your life?

• How would you live differently if you truly believed God created you for a unique mission, one that only you can accomplish?

Life’s Challenges

Republished from Be Happy Stay Happy

Many times in our life we find that we are faced with challenges. How we deal with these challenges helps us grow.  Whether you are faced with an illness, divorce, loss of a loved one, job loss, etc., it is up to you how you handle it. Yes, these situations can suck but if you let them consume you, they can bring you down really fast.

Here are few suggestions to deal with challenges in our life:

• Surround yourself with positive people & embrace their energy.
• Remember that everything happens for a reason, even though we may not know it at the time.
• Don’t over think the issue. Accept the situation as it is and realize that sometimes there is nothing you can do to fix it.
• Open up to a friend or therapist and really let yourself be vunerable. Share your thoughts and how the situation makes you feel. Don’t hold back.
• Don’t beat yourself up about what you could have done in the past, that will get you nowhere.
• Change your perspective and look at the positive of the situation, think about how much you will grow and learn from it.

Merry Christmas!

Thank you, thank you, thank you to The Secret and to Rhonda.

I am currently on day 10 of The Magic and it has gone just magically!

Since it’s close to Christmas I told myself that I would have enough money to buy everything on both my daughter’s Christmas lists, and that unexpected money would come my way.

Well, two days later there was an unexpected deposit in my account and that same day I received a check!!!

I am fully aware of how awesome we all are, but it never seizes to amaze me!

Thank you, thank you, thank you to Rhonda and everyone that has posted their wonderful stories, which have given such motivation. Thank you.

Instant Manifestation!

Republished from The Secret

My name is Camila and my life has improved so much because of The Magic and The Secret!

Today’s story is about an instant manifestation of a desire. Today I was returning back home from downtown Buenos Aires by train and that’s about 30 kilometers. It was really late at night so it was dark and I needed my mum to come to the station to grab me when I arrived, so I needed to call her.

Unfortunately I had no battery in my phone, it was literally dead so I couldn’t make the call. I started feeling bad because the thought of being alone at night in the train station and having to walk home alone frightened me. But I told my self to stop having such feelings and turn the situation into something positive instead.

So I started thinking of the beautiful evening I spent with my friend who lives far away from me, the fact that I got a place to sit in the train. I felt glad for the train’s speed and at the end of the ride I grabbed my phone with both hands and started saying thank you for working so well and always letting me communicate.

Instantly I pressed the power button and unbelievably it worked and had a bit of battery, just the necessary amount to make a call!

I arrived home safely and happy. It really helped me to see the law of attraction in action and reaffirm my faith. Thank you to all The Secret team for making this gift accessible to everyone.
