From Fabulous Francesca and her reading: Seedtime and Harvest

This is the story of a couple living in Sacramento, California, who refused to accept the evidence of their senses, who refused to be robbed, in spite of a seeming loss.  The wife had given her husband a very valuable wristwatch.  The gift doubled its value because of the sentiment he attached to it.  They had a little ritual with the watch.  Every night as he removed the watch he gave it to her and she put it away in a special box in the bureau.  Every morning she took the watch and gave it to him to put on.

One morning the watch was missing.  They both remembered playing their usual parts the night before, therefore the watch was not lost or misplaced but stolen.  Then and there, they determined not to accept the fact that it was really gone.  They said to each other, “This is an opportunity to practice what we believe.”  They decided that , in their imagination, they would enact their customary ritual as though the watch were actually there.  In his imagination, every night the husband took off the watch and gave it to his wife, while in her imagination she put it away.  Every morning she removed the watch from its box and gave it to her husband and he, in turn, put it on.  This they did faithfully for two weeks.

After their fourteen-day vigil, a man went into the one and only jewelry story in Sacramento where the watch would be recognized.  As he offered a gem for appraisal, the owner of the store noticed the wristwatch he was wearing.  Under the pretext of needing a closer examination of the stone, he went into an inner office and called the police.  After the police arrested the man, they found in his apartment over ten thousand dollars worth of stolen jewelry.  in walking “by faith, not by sight,” this couple attained their desire – the watch – and also aided many others in regaining what had be seemed to be lost forever.

 

“If one advances confidently in the direction of his dream, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.”

Our imagination is our gift from God and is a powerful tool.  When we use it lovingly and consciously, manifestation will occur.  The Spirit of God in you is your imagination.”
