Chapter 6 - Lesson Six - Wealth of Mind Expresses Itself in Riches
PROSPERITY, according to Webster, is an advance or gain in
anything good or desirable, successful progress toward, or
attainment of a desired object. Prosperity does not mean
the same thing to any two persons. To the wage earner an
increase of a few dollars in the weekly income may seem
like wonderful prosperity, for it means an increase in the
comfort and welfare of his family. The man who engages in
vast enterprises reckons prosperity in larger terms, and
does not consider himself prosperous unless things are
coming to him in a big way. Between these extremes are many
ideas of prosperity, which shows quite plainly that
prosperity is not in the possession of things but in the
recognition of supply and in the knowledge of free and open
access to an inexhaustible storehouse of all that is good
or desirable.
In the great Mind of God there is no thought of lack, and
such a thought has no rightful place in your mind. It is
your birthright to be prosperous, regardless of who you are
or where you may be.
