This will involve the creation of a "Net Wealth Statement" and a five-year "Spending Plan" based on spiritual principles | |

Pay close attention to both the thoughts and feelings that arise in response to pondering each of them. Then place a check mark in front of the ones you are in agreement with it. |

My Prayer of Acceptance There is only one Life. This Life is good; this Life is God; this Life is my Life now! I know that this Life is a source of Infinite Intelligence, acting in me, through me, and all around me. And even though I may not know how to provide the means to attend this Sacred Days of Financial Freedom Retreat, I know that this Intelligence knows exactly how to provide everything necessary for me to be in attendance. Therefore, I fully accept the physical and financial means that are so graciously provided by the Power and the Presence of the Divinity within me. I now released any thought, belief, idea, attitude or suggestion that I might hold that does not support my attendance at this retreat. As I accept this Good into my life, I give thanks with an open, gracious and joyous heart. Amen. |
