Hello all -
I just found out about this forum a few days ago at an Abe Meetup in Seattle. If you live in the area, I highly recommend attending one of Radiant Raven's Meetups. It was great fun!
Abraham-Hicks has been an enormously joyful part of my life for about 5 years. I laugh about it now but, the truth is I almost dismissed it out of hand the first time I saw it.
Here's what happened...
For years before I had been interested in intention and manifestation. This was before I found Abraham. I experienced some very big intentional manifestations - nice homes with specific features, really cool jobs, and other very unique experiences. But I still didn't fully believe.
I decided to put it to the test. I hatched a plan to intend something so outlandish that if it came to pass there would be no doubt my intentions were creating my reality.
Every night, I focused on this intention: "I would like magical beings to come into my life who bring great benefits to me."
I'm not sure what I expected - maybe meeting a troop of elves in the forest - something crazy like that. I liked it for my test because it was so un-normal that if it happened, there would be no mistaking it.
About three weeks into it, I found my self in a book store. A book caught my eye - "Ask and It Is Given." It was recommended by Wayne Dyer so I picked it up.
The back cover had me very excited until I read the words, "Non-physical entity."
"Bunch of new age crap," I thought. I had had a weird experience with channeled entities before. I tossed the book back on the table and started to walk away.
After three steps I stopped. "Haven't you been the one focusing on magical beings coming into your life?" I thought. I laughed at myself and went back for the book.
I read it right away. My heart soared with joy. It instantly became my favorite book. And talk about magical beings that bring great benefits... Holy Cow!
I love realizing that if I hadn't allowed it it never would have happened.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Warmest regards,
- James

Hello Leslie and James and everyone!
SO great to meet you at Radiant Raven's place last week. And thank you to Raven for hosting!
James, that is a great story.
It's funny because my introduction to Abe was through another group of magical beings in a psychic reading a couple years ago. The woman doing the reading said her guides were suggesting Abraham Hicks to me. I was in a place where I believed it had to be heaven sent so to speak. I was bored with "mere mortal" teachers. A I appreciate better now that wisdom and love are everywhere you see it! Especially in this wonderful forum with all our wonderful selves
Looking forward to more sharing.
PS: I don't have a photo - yet.
