It was a dark period financially and emotionally too. I needed at least $20,000 within the next month just to get caught up. Things seemed to be going wrong all around me.
I was in a rut. So I went to church on Sunday, something I hadn’t done for some time. The minister’s sermon, which I didn’t know in advance, was, “You Deserve Financial Success.”
She went on to outline all the reason’s for God’s abundance to be channeled to an
yone who asked for it. She made a sensible and rational case.
Now, I’m not a very religious person within the man-made religions, but am a big time believer in God and prayer.
The latter I have treated like a forgotten relative at times. The former, an exercise that I know works but for some reason I fail to do for periods of time.
So, that Sunday I marveled at my excellent timing and maybe even prescience for showing up at this particular church in San Diego, which was over 150 miles from my home.
I had driven there on an impulse that morning because I especially liked the preacher, Terry Cole-Whittaker, and I needed some spiritual sustenance.
There was a prayer box in the lobby. So I filled out my slip with a prayer that described my need for $20,000 within four weeks.
After church I drove to LaJolla, where I sat down on one of the most beautiful beaches and views in the world, and worried.
