 man must ever hold the vision of his journey’s end and demand the manifestation of that which he has already received. It may be his perfect health, love, supply, self-expression, home or friends.

They are all finished and perfect ideas registered in Divine Mind (man’s own superconscious mind) and must come through him, not to him. For example: A man came to me asking for treatments for success. It was imperative that he raise, within a certain time, fifty-thousand dollars for his business. The time limit was almost up, when he came to me in despair. No one wanted to invest in his enterprise, and the bank had flatly refused a loan. I replied: “I suppose you lost your temper while at the bank, therefore your power. You can control any situation if you first control yourself.” “Go back to the bank,” I added, “and I will treat.” My treatment was: “You are identified in love with the spirit of everyone connected with the bank. Let the divine idea come out of this situation.” He replied, “Woman, you are talking about an impossibility. Tomorrow is Saturday; the bank closes at twelve, and my train won’t get me there until ten, and the time limit is up tomorrow, and anyway they won’t do it. It’s too late.” I replied, “God doesn’t need any time and is never too late. With Him all things are possible.” I added, “I don’t know anything about business, but I know all about God.” He replied: “It all sounds fine when I sit here listening to you, but when I go out it’s terrible.” He lived in a distant city, and I did not hear from him for a week, then came a letter. It read: “You were right. I raised the money, and will never again doubt the truth of all that you told me.”
