Experience gratitude for omnipresent goodness

“If you pour your words of faith into the omni-present substance, you will be prospered though all the banks in the world be closed.” --Charles Fillmore.

Our journey to prosperity thus far has outlined 6 steps. Today they are united in the 7th step.

The 6 steps are 1) be clear of your purpose, which is defined by your passion-- those things that are important to you. The Universe is as committed to your success as you are, providing all that you need to manifest it. 2) by healing and forgiveness, clear away that which blocks your success from coming to you. 3) jump into the flow of God's giving nature by your giving, your tithing. 4) Attune to God's goodness through the power of prayer. 5) since that which we affirm with our focus is manifested, strive to live complaint free. Use your powers for good. 6) our caring actions bring into manifestation the love of God in this 3D world.

The 7th step is to express your gratitude for God's goodness even in the face of challenges. Do not thank God as a victim, however, and bring on more of that. Instead, knowing that there is no thought of lack in God's mind, when we perceive a limitation, as Spritual beings, we know there is something good, something wonderful and whole coming. Often we can't see it, but we know it's got to be there. “Thank You, God, for the goodness that is there that must come forth.” Facing challenges, if you are willing to let God's goodness flow in and through your life, say, “Thank You, God!”
