God's Blessings

I was walking in a very high consciousness. There was no car problem at that hour, so I was walking in the street, right next to the sidewalk. As I came near Parsons Boulevard, I saw that a nickel was shining very brightly on the road in front of me. Whether it is a nickel or a dime, if you see it, you should pick it up.

I picked it up and it was in very good condition. Then I said, "I hope I do not have to bend down any more." I had not yet taken stretching exercises and I was a little bit stiff. Lo and behold, after two hundred metres, I saw a penny.

Four days ago, I was unwilling to pick up a penny because I was so tired. I was about to pick it up, but the soul of the penny said, "No, no, no. I do not want you to bend any more. You have blessed me. Now whoever gets it will be a lucky person." I listened to the soul and did not pick it up.

But today was a different story. I said, "I cannot deny money-power. It is God's Blessings. Since I bent down once for a nickel, let me pick up this penny." I took it, and it was also in very good condition.
