Day 31:
"God is lavish, unfailing Abundance, the rich omnipresent substance of the Universe. This all-providing Source of infinite prosperity is individualized as me - the Reality of me."

If I believe (and I do) that I am the manifestation, or form, created out of a Divine Intelligence (Spirit), and that this Spirit is literally the source out of which everything emerges, then all of what it is has to be what I am made up of, cause there is nothing else I could have been created out of! If this is so, and if I believe that this Spirit is abundant - in other words, has the capacity and capability to create (out of itself) unlimited forms - then that same ability must inherently be within me as well. This is the 'Reality' of me.

Once I begin to 'own' this reality, or make it my own, or identify more with it than I do with the finite world of human form, then whatever, literally whatever, I desire within the innermost regions of my being (my core) manifest themselves automatically in my life. If I believe I am prosperous, I am; if I believe I am supported in a lavish and literally unfailing way - I am.

This is where the rubber meets the road. It is all well and good to intellectually understand this principle or concept. It is quite another to practice it in daily living.

Just take the word 'lavish'. To one person, lavish may mean simply having enough food to eat during any given day, so having the ability to secure food be automatic (without any concern or worry)would be prosperity. To another, it may mean experiencing fulfillment through life's work. To another, it may mean the ability to purchase shelter, etc. etc.

Nature provides the best example of the lavishness of Spirit. There is not just one kind of apple, there are many; there is not just one apple on a tree, but hundreds; there is not just one kind of tree, there are hundreds, etc. etc. So too in my world. Hundreds of ways that lavish abundance shows itself daily. I see them; I appreciate them; I identify with them; I embody the process and recognize that process - the 'rich, omnipresent substance of the Universe' IS me now!
