To live a spiritual life does not mean you are deprived of all those worldly goods you have need of and that make life easier. It simply means that you have the use of every single thing you need to use for the benefit of the whole and to My honour and glory. When you have finished with it, whatever it may be, it is returned to Me with love and gratitude, because you recognize that all you have is Mine. You will find the more you give away, the more room there is for more to enter. Accept all that you need, but never try to possess it. The more possessive you are of anything, the more likely you are to lose it .My store-houses are full to overflowing. As you get your values right, you will lack absolutely nothing. But always remember to put Me first in everything, to give thanks for everything, and to return to Me that which you have finished with.

以靈性的方式生活,並不意味著我所需要的所有世俗間的財物,和讓我生活好過些的事物,都被剝奪。它只是簡單地意味著,我所使用的每一件事物,我都需要為了全體的利益去使用,為了上天的榮譽和榮耀。當我完成使用它時,無論它可能是什麼,它將被帶著愛與感激送還於上天,因我意識到我所擁有的都是上天的。我會發現我給出的越多,就有越多的空間讓更多的進來。

接納我所需要的一切,但永不試圖去佔有它。我對任何事的佔有慾越強,我就越可能失去它。上天的儲藏室,滿得快要溢出來了。若我獲得了正確的價值觀,我絕不會缺少任何東西。但總是記住在每件事情上都將上天放在第一位,對每件事物都表示感謝,並且將那些我已使用完的事物都送還於上天。
