Very uplifting!

A combination of the law of attraction and traditional religious faith I was surprised to find how much the Bible supports a law of attraction.

Been on my list for years…

I’ve heard about this book for many years. I was so happy to see that it was available on audible. I’ve listened to it at least four times and it’s entirety and always get something new. Short, effective, and necessary for simply shifting into higher consciousness.
