      This book takes a thread of truth and sews in a bunch of lies. For example, it's only point is "what you imagine in your life, you create". However, it gives ridiculous examples like a woman who grew up wearing black dresses, she got married and soon her husband died. It then literally equates her wearing the black dress as a child to the death of her husband... because that makes sense.

      This book made me self confident I am one with God and that I am a channel to His word and Will. When I started the book I felt fear and worried but by the end all that changed...

      Amazing insight for 1925 and completely relevant to today’s thinking. I enjoyed the explanations and how closely the biblical scripture is explained in what sounds like Buddhist philosophy. We are all so much more alike, than not.

      Florence Scovel Schinn was well ahead of her time. Her understanding of spiritual law is awe inspiring. I encourage anyone seeking to change their stinking thinking and to live a life of abundant health, wealth, and love to read this book. Then read it again!
