Manifesting from the Kitchen and Into the World
When we are repetitively thinking on a focused idea, your thoughts are literally building it. This is at the core of Manifesting 1,2,3 and you don’t need #3. Ken R. writes: When I lived in Boulder, CO I started a bakery business out of my kitchen. My boyfriend’s business was not doing well so I had to figure out a way for us to make some money for Christmas, so I just decided to start making some Italian cookies. I didn’t make a ‘thing’ out of manifesting, I just decided to make something happen and went fully in to create some quick income. After baking many batches, I offered the cookies to all of my friends who buy gifts for their clients at $100 for a tray of three dozen cookies, and I wrapped them in a really attractive package. I got a lot of orders! Now there was a lot of baking to do and during that time I just decided to make some biscotti to expand the idea and make it more attractive. I created a few yummy biscotti flavors and worked it to get the texture just right. Everything about them was unbelievably delicious. That’s when I started hearing from everybody, “Oh my God, you need to go into business. These are the best I’ve ever had.“ I started to really think about the idea and since I heard it so often, I began to consider that I was being given a sign. Taking this to a serious level, I began planning out a place to start. I was in the cooking making / planning mode constantly and now I was imagining making this bigger. Where to go next? I let people know about my products, like the head of the dinner theater, some nearby store owners I knew, and tea houses. I literally got in the door with every single location that I went for. Next, I set up booths at the local fairs and outdoor markets. Later when I moved to California, a friend passed my biscotti Christmas box to the owners of an enormous coffee and tea house chain there. The owners were impressed and indicated that they wanted to meet and interview me. I thought to myself, “Well you know what, I have no idea what I’m doing in the cookie business world and how to reproduce in quantity, but at this point, I am determined to make this company go forward.” I went for the interview. By the way, I was thinking about approaching them myself. How interesting that the connection came to me. They loved the cookies, but they said to me, “Look, we think they’re going to break in shipment because they’re long and thin and we don’t think they will travel well.” Hmmm. Not only was I constantly in thought about birthing this company, but also determined and my intention was to be the best at this and to have all of these production problems solved. I went home, made the biscotti round and added a baking step. I went back with the new shape, showed them my packaging and once again, they loved the new idea, but we were not done yet. They asked if I would be willing to make them gluten-free. I had never made anything gluten free, and not many people were at the time. I knew nothing about anything, but I was focused on success. I observed how everything seemed to be coming together so far and how problems were being efficiently solved as they came up.The way I was going about this, my vision, focus and emotional connection to this idea was apparently creating a successful path for me and it gave me the confidence to make the next step. I said OK, and I immediately a great quality, gluten-free baking flour was required. What flour should I get? I expected it to show up somehow, right? I got in the car, went and bought one flour brand, brought it home, made the cookies like I did normally and they were divine! The company agreed that all was perfect and gave me two months to get production going. Wow! Now that I manifested this new company, I now had to find a bakery that was gluten-free capable before gluten-free was even really out there. I found a good bakery but I had to personally buy all the specialized equipment necessary to begin a production line. Everything worked successfully! The cookies were coming off the line and into the beautiful packaging in a big way! The idea of a little cookie business in the kitchen blossomed into to a large production, unique cookie for one of the biggest coffee house companies around. Everything that I focused on happened, and it didn’t take very long… that was manifesting. I know a lot more about the subject now and have read Ken’s book to get an overview. Looking back, I wasn’t doing ‘formal’ manifesting techniques, but I was immersed in the idea of having a cookie business – and always a little bigger going forward. I was doing always-on, never stopping manifesting! That was then. Now stay tuned… I’m working on something entirely different now. Join me and let’s build more of our own dreams and desires.

Manifesting Works, Sometimes With Delays, So Stay With It!
Stories like this are not unusual. Even when we are continually manifesting, we will sometimes find that we were in our own way, other people or groups were involved that created more complications, or we not quite ready to get the keys to the Maserati, so to speak. Regardless, don’t give up because your thoughts are continually building the desires that you seek! Ken C writes: First, I want to say that I can’t imagine not having a manifesting regimen in my life right now. It gives me hope and it delivers, even if it takes a little time. So hear is my story that I wanted to pass on to everyone. About three years ago when the Covid lockdown happened, I realized I couldn’t travel and I was thinking it would be really fun to go on a cruise. And then I thought, but I can’t this is, I can’t do this. But then again, I could I can do it in my imagination and perhaps manifest it. I could certainly go online and look at cruises, everything about them and the entire scene. So I began to make a study of luxury vessels, shipbuilders and the whole gamut. I immersed myself in this, envisioned being onboard and seeing the stars from the ship, the cabins, dining rooms and the people onboard. I did this a number of times a week for about three months, it was like my little mini-holiday and I was really enjoying myself. Eventually I let it go and then about a year later in a conversation with a friend, she mentioned that she was about to go on a cruise. She was telling me the details of where they were going, etc, and I thought, “Hey, wait a minute, that was my dream!” As I’m listening to her I’m getting so excited for her and thinking that these things actually happen. The next day I got on my laptop to check out Alaska cruises. I found a travel agency close by and the agent began to search for a type of stateroom I inquired about. Unfortunately, she said they’re all booked and then our connection was suddenly cut off. Three hours later the agent called me back and I asked her if there’s anything available on a different date that would work for me.As it turns out, there was only one cabin available on a ship that held about 3000 people! I booked it immediately and it felt so natural to make that reservation without any hassle or struggle, all falling into place for my sister and I. Oh, and that stateroom happened to have a balcony. I kind of forgot about the cruise idea until my friend mentioned it. I felt like I had booked the trip already, that it is was a certainty and it taught me to never give up on my dreams! By the way, cruising with my sister was great and I enjoyed watching her have fun. Alaska is a beautiful cruise destination. C. ________________________________ Want more?

There is More Than Just the Law of Attraction: A Primer
I am for all forms of manifesting however you go about it. If you have a positive, repeating intention then you are on the right track. Please note that your negative, repeating intentions will also create results, the undesirable ones. In the book I have written about my experiences on thoughts actually begin to create form. This is more than positive thinking and it is what actually underpins of the law of attraction. Take a moment to follow this link: Here’s the fundamental and revealing information on how out thoughts are literally building our realities in the near-physical realm and the power of gratitude. As Galileo Galilei said: “All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered.” Once we understand that our thoughts are actually building things, we should step into the role of the creator, an active, not passive role and this is where it gets interesting. Most all of the manifesting techniques, vision boards, lists, envisioning outcomes, etc. are repetitive intentions and just like stacking bricks, your thoughts begin to build the outcome in the near-physical realm. The hundreds of stories in the Manifesting 1,2,3 website illustrate those successful results. It is incredibly useful to know that your thoughts are actually tools just like a hammer or screwdriver, a big difference between constructing and wishing. Furthering the point, this is not attracting an outcome, it is assembly, much like a 3-D printer. Manifesting is generally not instantaneous. Imagine that this assembly has a number of parts. As an example, to get the better career an opening has to be made and it may be better than you could have imagined. This is the nature of manifesting things and it may appear that these things are being attracted to you but there is more. How can we be happier, have less stress and experience more confidence for example? These are internal targets, not physical items but solutions to personal concerns can be manifested as well and here is the good part. Because they are particular to us, we are the primary moving part and in theory, a much easier outcome to build. As difficult it may seem to overcome, our thoughts can and do create solutions to our long-lasting and intractable personable problems. How can that happen? Your thoughts create the successful solutions and pathways for it to happen and it often goes like this. I get a call or someone writes describing that as they awoke and without knowing how, they realize that “They are no longer are stressed about money,” “That they haven’t been this happy since high school,” That they will “not have feelings of loneliness anymore.” Even more surprising is what each of these people have said next, “And I know that this feeling is permanent!” Not only is the result seemingly miraculous, but what occurred in their sleep wasn’t the result of something attracted to these individuals, like a package on the doorstep. An internal change occurred without outside influences and it was fully in place when they woke up, a permanent alteration in their lives. Now you know the true secret of what our thoughts can do and I hope you will take every advantage! Ken ________________________________ Want more? (it’s a fun ride) Purchase the book or e-book.

Keep it Simple… Regardless (reprise story)
For many years, I have followed law of attraction & manifesting gurus and read all of the materials with inconsistent results. In my opinion and based on my experience, they seemed to be lacking something. It felt that I wasn’t getting all the pieces to the puzzle and a key ingredient was missing. My world changed when I met Ken and he taught me a different (and simple) way to manifest wonderful things and events into my life. My business has picked up, but not enough to allow me to make the outright purchase of a new laptop that I desperately need. A couple weeks ago I put a new laptop computer into my manifesting movie, following Ken’s approach. Yesterday morning I received an out of the blue call from a very dear friend who knew nothing about what I had in my manifesting movie. He told me that he knew that I needed a laptop computer for work and he had already called his credit card company and he could use his points to purchase the computer I needed. He told me that he woke up “And got the idea and that his points were just sitting there accumulating so why not use them?” My friend also said that I could pay back the price of the computer over time with terms that work for me, making this perfectly manageable In a few hours, we were meeting at the computer store and I walked away with exactly the new computer I had been secretly manifesting. It’s wonderful to see how the Universe will respond to our request when put our intentions out there. It’s more amazing than I could have ever dreamed up!

Open the Door for Unique and Creative Results
Hidden in this ‘small’ story is something we all desire… Let’s just call it a flow. Ken I have been manifesting for sometime now. In fact, I became so interested in it, I finally decided to go out and buy a book along the order of manifesting for dummies. They didn’t have it at the Barnes & Noble, but I did find your book, Manifesting 1,2,3 and you don’t need #3. Since that time, I have manifested many things, including my own home. Early on, one of the things on my manifesting list was to help others and after years of study, I am a licensed spiritual practitioner, spiritual coach, and I do mentoring and empowerment session work. I put together a custom designed class and your Manifesting book was the seed. One of the things at the core of the class is worthiness, to ask in all the ways available to us and to manifest what is important for us. Here’s another way of asking, what I call a key, “I am joyfully expecting even more unique, creative and traditional demonstrations.” I am allowing God to be creative and unique…okay, I wanted to challenge God. Here’s a recent story of mine. It may not be a ‘big’ one, but I want to point out this important aspect. I live a life where I am asking, manifesting, and expressing gratefulness everyday. Yes, there are specific things on my list and there is also a wonderful undercurrent, what could be described as a constant flow of good things in my life. Things just get taken care of and it gives me peace. In addition to my counseling work, I do home security checks, house sitting, and walk the owners dogs. Some of the house sitting jobs are very lucrative. Recently, I was contracted to housesit for two weeks at $1000. Unfortunately, my client got sick and had to cancel. I have a cancellation policy and I charge half price in those instances. My clients understand and they always pay because that is fair. In this case, the client was a friend and had to cancel her upcoming trip because of a reoccurrence of the severe migraines she suffers from. Okay. in my brain I’m hearing I just took $1,000 hit. My friend said, “You know what, Lisa? I’m gonna give you $300 because I know that you held the space for me. My first thought was okay universe, that was good, but not enough. My friend and I settled up nicely and I was good about it. Back to the unique and creative ways… To make a very long story short, somebody else gave me a needed a chair for my porch. She told me to send my friend over with the truck and she would give me that chair. I’m like, “Okay, nice, I got a free chair.” When the chair arrives, I saw that it’s an elbow L.L Bean Adirondack chair. I googled that chair and it is worth $350, a much better chair and more than I would have spent for a porch chair. As another surprise, she sent the matching side table. I loved that chair and as I am sitting in that chair on my porch, I’m having a discussion with the universe. “Okay, that was pretty good.” Not a minute later, my friend that previously cancelled the housesitting called and said, “Hey, we’re going away for the second week, are you still available?” I was, so I got $500 for one week of housesitting and the earlier $300 cancellation fee. I’m all good. It’s all good. Hmmm, so now I’m thinking and putting it out to the universe, “I have a back porch. Could we have a second chair for my back porch?” I’m not being disrespectful, I’m just saying this is great, can we do it again? So how can I how can I move my feet on this, take action? I decided to send a text to the woman who gave me the original chair. I asked If I could please have one of the matching chairs when she was ready to let go of it. I added that I would pay fair value because I didn’t want her to think I was wanting it for free. She didn’t answer back and I’m like, “Oh, no. I pushed too far,” and I’m like, “Okay, just let it go. I got enough.” The next day she sent me a text that says, “Oh my God, I forgot to answer you. Yes, come on over get the chair.” In the end, I received more value than original $1000. I received the cash I needed and the enduring comfort of two wonderful, high-quality chairs built for a lifetime of use and the matching end table as a bonus. My original plan was to get one cheap chair at the hardware store that would only last a couple of years. I received so much more and that’s what I mean by unique and creative ways and it’s for the asking.

We Are Watched Over, Heard and We Are Powerful
Continuing on an earlier newsletter story of what our thoughts can do and that we are heard… Ken Early on when I was discovering more about metaphysical topics, I became good friends with two exceptionally gifted women, Judy Goodman, and Patty Conklin. In my conversations with them they explained to me how they could see and hear the non-physical realm with their physical eyes and ears. In that non-physical realm there are the deceased, our guides and angels, and much more. At the time, I hadn’t learned anything about manifesting and I hadn’t experienced any evidence of a non-physical realm. That was about to change. One afternoon Judy and Patti were both visiting and we were all having a light conversation in my living room when Patti suddenly said, “Quick, there’s an angel in the room. Where is the angel?“ And she did mean quick, telling me again to hurry and point in the direction of the angel. I pointed off to my right and Patti said that was correct. Well that was something! I had been working on the idea of trying to be more intuitive like Judy and Patti so maybe I’m onto something. I looked over at Judy and she started to snicker and then Patti started doing the same thing. I asked, “I got it right, didn’t I? You said the angel was standing were I pointed, right?” I was confused and hurt and then they began laughing. Patti finally explained to me that the angel was standing on the opposite side of the room but when I pointed to my right, the angel immediately moved to where I was pointing. Patti said the angel didn’t want me to be wrong. That really struck me on a lot of levels, the main one being that there is a non-physical realm populated by at least one angel that was somehow communicating and being nice to me. Taking the lesson further, Judy later told me and Patti agreed that we can command the Angels. That brings me to a second instance. At this point, I have learned a lot about manifesting and how our thoughts create form in the non-physical realm before they appear here. That’s well-explained in the book, my interviews and in previous newsletters so I won’t dwell on that here. What I want to point out is the idea that more help is available to us, that we are not alone as we go forward in our lives. My home at the time was near an interstate highway nearby that was very dangerous. The speed limit was 75 miles an hour with two lanes of traffic for each direction. The 14-wheeler trucks had to slow down to about 20 miles an hour to make a hill. On occasions one semi would pass a slower one, essentially blocking that 75 mile an hour fast lane, resulting in a number of accidents and fatalities. I was really alarmed at seeing new crosses at the accident scenes in increasing numbers. It was months after my angel encounter and while I was driving on that highway, I had an idea. I decided to put my thoughts to work and combine them with the idea of commanding the angels. I didn’t have a firm idea of what I was doing or if it was correct to do so, but I asked the angels to line the highway, protect us and stop future accidents and fatalities. I felt a little sheepish putting that out there but I remembered that Angel in my living room accommodating me, so I let my request stand and left the rest to them. It was about six weeks later when Judy came back to visit. We were travelling on that interstate to pick up something at the mall. That’s when I remembered asking the angels line the highway and protect us. Since Judy can continually see the non-physical realms, I asked her what she saw along the interstate we were on. I’ll never forget what she said, “There are angels lining the highway, the entire highway,” she added. There was a moment of shock and I explained to Judy what I had done. She was not surprised by the angel’s response at all. From that moment on, I felt more empowered and learned that our thoughts are heard and how they can make a difference. Going forward, it was my impression that the highway accidents were not as frequent and within a year and a half or so the highway was expanded to four lanes in each direction, dramatically making that stretch of the interstate a much safer place. At birth, we are endowed with the ability to use our thoughts, particularly the repetitive ones to create anything, so please take full advantage. Oh, and don’t forget, our thoughts and intentions are heard by those in the prayer and angelic departments as well! Ken ________________________________ Want more?

Manifest, Avoid the Fears, and Request More Help!
Happily, this is the second time that something like this has occurred this year. I’m an independent contractor and the phone hasn’t been ringing lately. After a couple of back-to-back best years, 2023 has been really sloooooow. I do a manifesting list every day and gratefully, things somehow fall into place. It’s certainly not the way I would plan it, but I remember learning that in manifesting there is money and the equivalent of money and that is how a lot of the 2023 bills have been paid for. There are the tax refunds, customers paying back late, late invoices from the year before and other amazing things. Still, it would be nice to have a steadier income coming from Plan A, my day job! I read the Manifesting 1,2,3 and you don’t need #3 book and the #2 was how do deal with fear. The advice was to “take action” on those fears and I get it. I also make a point to stay out of the fear game and I do pretty well to keep clear of that. One way I keep the fear at a distance is to act in advance of the problem and to work on creating solutions before I get into a fearful jam. In my case, I could see the possibility of incoming orders slowing down for the next two months so I did the following: I didn’t react in fear. I continued my manifesting, putting a little more attention and emotion into successfully resolving any financial lacks. Then I did something I read from an earlier newsletter here: petitioning those in spirit helping me. I haven’t seen them before but I have been told numerous times they are there, so I called their attention to somehow cover this month’s expenses, and more, and to keep doing it for all the other months going forward… indefinitely. Why not? If they are really there, then help me out. So, here’s what happened. Within a couple of days of putting those things into play, I came across something I wanted to splurge on. It was just over $1000. and I let it go. Days later, I saw that it was being offered for a flat $500…. very tempting, but no. Later that day I was clearing out a drawer full of stuff and found an envelope I had tucked in there with… $500. in cash! I made the purchase. That felt pretty good because the item was something I identified with personally and really desired, but I didn’t pay any bills with that $500. Four days later, two things happened within a couple of hours of each other. The first one was an inquiry from a possible new client needing my services in multiple locations – a bit of a rarity. The chances are good for that one. Next was a coincidental email. I had an expensive piece of equipment available for sale in another city and it had been there for many years. For the previous two weeks I had been often been thinking of what to do with it. Then up comes an email with a photo of the equipment from a potential, new client wanting a modified version of that piece. It’s something I can do and the price is very similar and happily it would cover my expenses for a month. There is not a guarantee that either of these things will come through, but it certainly seems like there is some magical timing going on and that possibly, my manifesting as well as my friends in spirit are on the job. I’m feeling pretty good about this although I can’t see the mechanism that may be making this happen. P.S. I just got an email for that second opportunity confirming the sale! It happened just as I about to send my story to you, therefore the P.S. Grateful for the manifesting result and what also may be some extra help! J.

Yes, With Your Loving Thoughts, You Can Send Gifts to the Deceased
My dear friend, Lynn Van Praagh-Gratton passed away last April 4th. For reasons to follow, I can say that she is a marvelous, joyful person. As a very gifted psychic, she worked with hundreds of people, using her abilities to make contact with deceased relatives and more. The day after her death, she appeared in spirit form to another gifted person and a good friend to both of us, Peter Marks. Peter can see and hear your guides with his physical eyes and ears. When Lynn appeared to him, he could clearly see and hear her as she stood in his study. She was very joyful, had the body of a 40-year old and on her passing, she had been met by a large number of friends in the spirit realm. She joyfully said she was free three times and clearly demonstrated to Peter how happy she was. …more about Lynn in a bit. Before I wrote Manifesting 123, and you don’t need #3, I learned from William Buhlman, the out of body author, and Judy Goodman, another highly gifted friend who can fully sense the spirit realms with her physical senses, about how our thoughts create form. When working with Judy over the years I would sometimes send her objects in thought, and since she allowed those to pass through her protective perimeter, she received what I had sent her with my thoughts every time. This experience was far too important to keep to myself or for a small circle of friends, so I published my book explaining this and how to use it for your own benefit. There are now over 450 stories from readers archived on the manifesting123.com website. So here’s one of those stories, and a most incredible one about what thought can do that happened to me just a couple of weeks ago.I was on a video call with Peter Marks, but before we could begin our conversation, Peter told me that Lynn just appeared and that she has a question for me, “Did you send me something?” Actually, I did, having sent her two things days earlier. I know that thought is real, powerful, and you can create things for yourself and also, you can send them to people who are no longer in the physical realm. I have done this many times, and sometimes when I have sent things to the deceased, the successful result has been proofed out to me. In Lynn’s case, I waited a month after her death before I sent her something because on her first visit to Peter, she instructed him to let her friends know that she is fine and very happy but please don’t send her things just yet since she was in an adjustment period and very busy “over there.” Since a month had passed, I used my thoughts to send her a rose to lay in her right hand and for fun, a favorite fun snack Lynn and her deceased husband both liked, Jack-in-the-Box tacos. They were a couple when they were very young and they liked those tacos from their early courtship and later, their married life together. So I used my thoughts to send them these gifts as Judy had taught me many years ago. She informed me that when you are sending a gift in thought, it will automatically come from your heart and the combination of your thought and the loving source is a powerful intention, one that they will get every time. So back to Lynn’s question, I was very happy that she asked if I had sent her something but before I could answer, she asked a second, different question, “Did you send me a painting?” That really surprised me. Shortly after her death, there was a photo of her on social media where she and a friend were standing on the beach with a sunset behind them. Of course I liked the picture of Lynn, but as an artist I was very drawn to the sunset background. I brought the photo into Photoshop, revealed more of the background clouds and began to create a 3 x 3′ square oil painting of that sky. I was often thinking of Lynn while creating the painting, about three weeks, and when it was finished, I thought to title it Lynn’s Sunset. I really didn’t like the sunset title since Lynn had passed, so I changed it to Lynn’s Sky. Now Lynn was asking if I had sent her a painting. It wasn’t literally true, but I had been thinking of her while creating that painting for weeks and that makes for a very strong intention. To keep things simple I answered back, “Yes I did.“ And then the most wonderful thing happened. Lynn asked, is the title Lynn’s Sky?” I was floored. I know about these things but every once in a while, the realization of what our intentions can create looks miraculous. Peter knew nothing about this painting, he was simply using his gifts to relay messages as he saw and heard them from Lynn. I was overjoyed and told Lynn yes, that was the title! It was an incredible moment. Then I remembered the earlier gifts I had sent to her. I got a feeling that she was about to leave so I quickly asked her if she got the tacos? She laughed and said that she did! Just today I was thinking about this story for the newsletter and talking with Judy Goodman. I wanted her to hear story and then it occurred to me to send Lynn an entire Jack in the box building in a beautiful setting with people in spirit manning it. Her private Jack in the Box is available anytime she and her guests want to swing by. She won’t have to wait on me! I kept this story light, but there is some serious business here. This is what your thoughts can do, a remarkable demonstration of how loved ones can be drawn to
Reprise: You Never Know When the Impossible Solution is Already Waiting for You
This is my story and it is an excellent example of how things seemed to be arranged in advance at times. I have often noticed that when an important solution is required, the answer quickly appears and as it was in this instance, it seems to have been pre-arranged. It’s a great story that is worth repeating. Ken I got a call that my grandmother had died and her funeral would take place in just a few days. She lived in another state and quick flight arrangements would need to be made. After a few calls, I was able to make a reservation with a discount given in these circumstances and it was gratefully accepted. On the day of my afternoon flight, my wife drove me to the airport we always use and because of the timing, I wasn’t able to have lunch with her before leaving. We got to the airport and as my wife waited, I checked in at curbside. The porter typed in my reservation and looked up at me and said, “You’re at the wrong airport! This flight is for the other airport.” That other airport was over an hour away! We did get to the first airport a bit ahead of time and if we made a good dash, perhaps I could catch the flight after all. We jumped back in the car and hoped for the best. When we got to the correct airport it was too late to make the flight. This was a smaller airport with limited flight options, but I needed to book something. I had a very high intention to get a flight that day since the funeral was the next afternoon and now it was going to be a very expensive, same-day booking, if one was available at all. Regardless, I made up my mind to get some kind of flight that day. We parked the car and my wife and I entered the airport. She went left to the array of airline ticket windows and I went right to get into my intended airlines long line with my expired ticket in hand. My wife came over after working the other airline possibilities and told me that the only thing available today would cost over $1000. Finally, it was my turn at the ticket window. I gave my expired ticket to the agent and told her I was the dumbest man in the state. I explained how I went to the larger airport I always used instead of reading the ticket and going to this correct, smaller airport. The agent was kind and didn’t agree with me. She went right to work and started typing in the info from my ticket to see what she could do for me. Clicketly, clicketly and then… She looked at me with a funny smile on her face and said, “Yes, you missed your flight but starting today, this flight has a new schedule. It added an earlier stop at the airport you came from and has a different flight number. After making a stop there, it is flying here. The ticket you are holding is still valid because once the plane lands here, it will have the flight number matching your original ticket. It will leave here about an hour from now.” Then there was the best part when she said, “You can’t miss this plane. It’s coming to you.” I was floored. The impossible had just happened. My wife and I had very strong intentions for me to make that flight in order to attend my Grandmother’s funeral. Was that intention, that quick manifesting enough to do the trick? I’m laughing as I type this. Despite my error, it was just like the agent said, “You can’t miss this flight.” My wife and I had the very nice lunch we had also intended while waiting for the plane to arrive. I was good that I got to my grandmother’s funeral and joined the family there, miraculous actually. Beautiful things followed… Some things we can manifest and pray for. Some things are just luck. Some things are written. Sometimes it is all the above. Keep visualizing, manifesting and if you are inclined, to pray for the things you need and desire. Don’t stop.
