soul.
I am, therefore, sending out a strong current of spiritual blessings, with such a spirit of helpfulness, that I am getting back the same which I send out. My harvest shall be peace, love, joy, harmony, justice and contentment, because I am sowing the seed of love, peace, harmony, joy, contentment and justice into the great subconscious soil of the universe.
"My Subconscious Mind, I desire and command you to have peace, harmony and justice reign everywhere throughout the world."
I wait--I rest--I am relaxed--I am at ease and filled with the spirit of harmony. I wait. I listen for the spirit within. I feel and hear the voice of infinite love sending back into my consciousness these thoughts which I send out.
I know that my every constructive thought blasts away a thousand destructive ones. Therefore, I think peace, joy, love, harmony and justice, and, as I utter these words slowly and prayerfully, I feel my vibration rising--I experience ease of mind and peace of soul. Harmony is now within and without.
I realize that I cannot send out my affirmation of peace, love, joy and harmony without peace, love, joy and harmony coming back to me. I, therefore, send out my affirmation: "My Subconscious Mind, I desire and command you to have peace, harmony and justice reign-in the hearts of men wherever they may be." I wait and listen--perfectly relaxed and at ease--and I feel the vibrations which I sent out coming back to me.
I, therefore, know that no harm can befall my dwelling place. I know that whatever evil thoughts have been sent out for my destruction have been counter-blasted, and that now everything is working for my good.
As I recognize, and realize, that all things work together for my good, I am sending out love-thoughts that all things are working together for the good of those who would do me wrong. "They know not what they do." They alone will have to reap the harvest of the weeds they are sowing. My wish for them is that they may learn their lesson easily and early. My blessings I send out to them.
Again I wait. Again I listen. Again I am at ease, happy, and at rest. Love and blessings, peace and harmony, I send out--love and blessings, peace and harmony, come back. "My Subconscious Mind, I desire and command you to have peace, harmony and justice reign. My blessings upon all mankind--my love to everyone!"

THOUGHT TO HOLD AS A BASIS FOR THIS SILENCE
FOR SUCCESS
"I Have Faith and Conviction in My Ultimate Success."
I believe the Scripture: "My ways are not your ways, saith the Lord; neither are my thoughts your thoughts, for as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my thoughts higher than your thoughts."
I understand by this Scripture that the thoughts of the Infinite God are far above the understanding of finite me; that God's ways are higher than my ways. "God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform."
I also have faith and conviction in my ultimate success because I am a part of the Infinite Spirit, and in the Infinite Spirit, there can be no failure. I am harmonious, complete and successful in Spirit--in God.
I may not see my success today, or I may feel as though I have accomplished little, but I know that all my efforts and energies, in the past, present and future, are working together for my good.
Therefore, I shall hold the thought that my success has already been achieved. I am Success, I have success now and forever! Therefore, I think only success; I talk only success; I believe only in success; I am demonstrating success, and I know that success is mine.
The needed lessons I am having now, have had in the past, and may require in the future, are but necessary stepping stones to my greater success. The apparent delay of my greater success means that I am now demonstrating more success than I could otherwise have. Dreams that I have dreamed, visions that I have visualized, and the goal that I have mapped out, are all a part of my ultimate greater success. I have that now! I am successful now!
As Moses went into the land of Midian, and spent forty years of his life as a shepherd in the wilderness--(apparently with no future before him--which, however, was the great schooling necessary for his greater triumphant success in the future)--so I may be, in my land of Midian, apparently, only a sheep herder, but in reality getting the necessary training for my greater and ultimate success.
Therefore, I now rejoice in every experience I have--giving thanks for every apparent set back, and for every "seeming" blocking of my purposes and aspirations.
I believe that my past experiences, as well as present happenings, are for
