Your Word Is Your Wand - Florence Scovel Shinn - First published in 1928 - Man's word is his wand filled with magic and power! So man has power to change an unhappy condition by waving over it the wand of his word.In the place of sorrow appears joy, in the place of sickness, appears health, in the place of lack appears plenty.The imaging faculty is the creative faculty and it is important to choose words which bring a ash of the fulfilment of the demand. Never force a picture by visualizing; let the Divine Idea ash into your conscious mind; then the student is working according to the Divine Design. Happy surprises come to me each day. "I look with wonder at that which is before me." My happiness is built upon a rock. It is mine now and for all eternity.
