Our attitudes and thoughts shape our lives. Ponder gives you the tools to prosper in all of life's situations. “Desire is God tapping at the door of your mind, trying to give you greater good.” – Caherine Ponder.
This book helped me to change my life when I first read it in the 1980's. Catherine Ponder, like me, was a single parent struggling to make ends meet. While a single parent she took a job to teach about prosperity, and then felt obligated to demonstrate it in her own life. Her writing is human, clear, personal, and inspiring. As a result, over the years I manifested a baby grand piano (on loan for 5 years), a down comforter, the specific car I wanted for the price I wanted, my husband, a contract to write a series of manuals for parents, a trip to Egypt (and soon another to Vietnam and Cambodia), and have also found numerous things that were lost, such as a bird, my camera, my cell phone (lost in Ireland), a stolen computer, my sunglasses (left on an airplane in another country), a life vest for my little dog, and a beautiful RV in which I have lived for the past 5 years! Catherine Ponder has been my inspiration, my teacher, and has always felt like a friend, too. Thank you!!
There is conflicting information about the prosperity gospel. God is a loving father & wants the best for his children. That is why He gave His best to die on a cross; His only son, Jesus Christ. May we live a life in gratitude of His amazing love. Holy Bible John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. John 10:10 ESV The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.
Catherine Ponder is one of my favorite authors. I love the way she writes and tells the story of what she is teaching. She has phenomenal wisdom. I keep reading this book and many of her other books again and again for the wisdom that they provide. She also has great affirmations, and practical wisdom when applied can really transform your thinking and your life. Love it!
I first encountered Catherine Ponder's writing many years ago, and re-read her best from time to time. Her positive, clear and refreshingly accessible style makes her ideas as powerful and moving as ever. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to experience the best of science of mind.
Catherine Ponders words are life changing. The affirmations in this book alone if done consistently and purposeful will yield amazing results. If you are looking for inspiration, motivation, with instruction to make your life better no matter who you are or where you are in life, this is the book!
Basically, posits to turn from dark to light, but covers many life changing scenarios. This is a firm stand on the Devine Mind and all of our connections to that higher power.
A fantastic guide on how to live a life of happiness and prosperity! Just in reading this book, I experienced peace and clarity. I have also received financial blessings.
Fun book teaching the power of positive thinking and taking action too to achieve what you want. Lots of good stories within it too. I’d recommend reading this book to create new habits.
I love the stories in this book and feel it’s particularly refreshing that even though the author is part of mainstream religion which is often so strict and rigid, she’s very open and welcoming to helping everyone improve their lives. This is a book I’ll be revisiting often.
This was one of the best books I've ever read! Written in the 1960's, it still continues to be relevant and truly inspirational! It's so amazing that this book is ahead of its time, in terms on the studies of "positive thinking" and the perspective of a spiritual framework!
It gives practical applications for achieving prosperity and guidance, which are effective and insightful.
I highly recommend this book to persons that need a guidebook on laws of prosperity and advancing one's life in a positive and successful way.
