It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye – How to Keep a Loved One Close to Your Heart

Losing someone you love is never easy. This week, I said goodbye to a man who played a pivotal role in my life: my Uncle Joe. He wasn’t just an uncle; he was my guiding light during a dark time. When I needed love, shelter, and support the most, he and his family took me in, certified as foster parents, and gave me the stability I so desperately needed. Uncle Joe's legacy lives on, not only through his love and care but through the values and strength he instilled in me.

A Heart Full of Gratitude: Uncle Joe's Legacy – Even in Death

Even in death, Uncle Joe’s impact remains. I carry with me the lessons he taught me about resilience, love, and the power of family—whether blood or chosen. Grieving is hard, but I find solace in keeping his memory alive by honoring those lessons every day. If you’ve lost someone, know that they never truly leave you. They live on in your heart, in the way you love others, and in the legacy you build for yourself and future generations..

With love and prosperity,

Prosperity Thinking Series: "The Laws of Prosperity – Part 3 (of 5): Prosperity Begins in the Mind"

In Chapter 5 of The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity, Catherine Ponder highlights that prosperity is born in the mind. She explains that our thoughts and beliefs are powerful creators of our external reality. By cultivating thoughts of abundance, we begin to attract prosperity into our lives. Ponder emphasizes that when you focus on what’s possible instead of what’s lacking, you open the door for financial, emotional, and spiritual wealth.

Key Takeaways from the Chapter:

1. Thoughts Shape Reality: What you consistently think about becomes your reality. If you think about scarcity, you attract more of it. When you think about abundance, you create space for prosperity to flow into your life.

2. Visualization as a Tool: Ponder advises readers to visualize themselves already experiencing the wealth and success they desire. By seeing yourself as already successful, you build a stronger belief in that possibility.

3. The Power of Words: Words are a manifestation of your thoughts. Ponder explains that speaking words of lack, fear, or doubt can block prosperity. On the other hand, speaking words of abundance affirms your faith in the flow of good things into your life.

4. Faith in Divine Supply: Trust that God is the source of unlimited abundance. By focusing on divine supply, rather than lack, you align yourself with the wealth the universe has in store for you.

Three Practical Steps to Implement Prosperity Thinking:

1. Affirm Prosperity Daily:

   • Start each day by affirming abundance. Speak aloud words like, "I am abundant in all areas of my life. I attract prosperity effortlessly." This aligns your mindset with prosperity and helps eliminate limiting beliefs that block wealth. Remember, as Ponder says, your words are powerful creators.

2. Visualize Your Desired Success:

   • Visualization is key to creating prosperity. Take a few minutes daily to close your eyes and imagine yourself living the life you desire. Whether it’s financial wealth, better health, or improved relationships, see yourself as already successful. This is a step toward realizing those desires because, as Ponder reminds us, thoughts precede reality.

3. Express Gratitude for What You Already Have:

   • Gratitude shifts your focus from lack to abundance. Each day, write down three things you are grateful for. This small act reminds you that you are already blessed, which invites even more blessings into your life. Ponder’s key point here is that gratitude amplifies prosperity—what you focus on expands.

Supporting Scriptures from Chapter 5:

1. Philippians 4:19 – "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus."

   • Trust that your needs will always be met, and live with a mindset of abundance, not lack.

2. Deuteronomy 8:18 – "But remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth."

   • You have been divinely empowered to create wealth, and trusting in this gift helps you tap into your full potential.

3. Proverbs 23:7 – "For as he thinks in his heart, so is he."

   • Your thoughts shape who you become. If you think in terms of prosperity, your life will reflect prosperity.

By applying these key principles from Chapter 5 and implementing these practical steps, you can start aligning your thoughts, words, and actions to attract the abundance you desire. It all begins in the mind—once you shift your thinking, prosperity will follow.

Self Care: Toxins and Parasite Detox: Cleanse Your Body Naturally

Our bodies are constantly exposed to toxins and parasites, which can affect our digestive system, energy levels, and overall well-being. Regular detoxing helps rid the body of these harmful substances, supporting healthy metabolism and better digestive function. Here's an effective natural remedy that uses simple, organic ingredients to cleanse and detoxify the body.

Ingredients:

1. Grated Pumpkin (Butternut Squash):

   • Pumpkin is highly digestible and contains large amounts of Vitamin K, which helps normalize the gastrointestinal tract and aids in toxin removal. With continued use, it improves metabolism and can help reduce excess weight.

2. Lemon Zest:

   • Lemon zest is rich in dietary fiber, which helps prevent gastrointestinal issues. It also contains powerful antioxidants that promote detoxification. Use one full lemon zest—wash thoroughly and grate the zest.

3. Grated Pumpkin Seeds (1 tablespoon):

   • Pumpkin seeds are high in fiber and help normalize intestinal function by stimulating peristalsis, essentially "cleaning" the intestines like a brush, promoting better digestion and toxin elimination.

4. Grated Cloves (1 tablespoon):

   • Cloves have numerous benefits for multiple organs and systems in the body. They help eliminate parasites, relieve flatulence, and prevent gas accumulation in the intestines, promoting overall digestive health.

5. Olive Oil:

   • Olive oil is used to cover all the ingredients. It enhances the absorption of nutrients and supports the detox process by providing healthy fats.

How to Use:

1. Grate 2 tablespoons of pumpkin (butternut squash).

2. Grate the zest of 1 full lemon (make sure it’s thoroughly washed).

3. Add 1 tablespoon of grated pumpkin seeds.

4. Mix in 1 tablespoon of grated cloves.

5. Cover all ingredients with olive oil.

Eat one tablespoon of this remedy daily until it’s gone. The combination of these ingredients will help remove harmful toxins, promote intestinal health, and leave you feeling revitalized and refreshed.
