T - "Thank You" Box bring Success

Repost this story in one of Catherine Ponder books.
Thank You Box !

"THANK YOU" BOX BRINGS SUCCESS

1) The mother of a large family did not have ample supply with which to meet their needs. She took an old shoe box and converted it to a "thank you box."  She asked her children to write out the blessings they sought, and place them in the "thank you box." Once a week they would open the "thank you box" and go through their requests to see how many had been fulfilled. These were farm people who needed rain for their crops. One week they were in the midst of a dry period. The mother wrote down these words which she put in the "thank you box": "Thank you God for rain - a regular downpour."
This happened on Tuesday. The next Sunday as they were going through their notes in the box, they realized that on Friday there had been "a regular downpour" of rain - the first in weeks!

2) On another occasion, her husband was having trouble with his car. He needed it in his work and also to make a special trip that had been planned. He had worked and worked on his car, trying to locate the mechanical trouble. Finally his wife remembered the "thank you box" so she wrote a note: "Thank you, dear God, for helping us to locate the trouble." Within 24 hours the trouble had been remedied.

3) A relative had looked for months for a job to no avail. The wife suddenly remembered to write a thank you note and put it in the box: "Thank you God for a good position with steady income for this relative," Within two weeks the relative had the best job of her life, after having looked for work for months.

4) The children in this family often wrote out notes about the more mundane things of life: Their desire for school clothes, ice cream for dinner, or going swimming. Each week, when they reviewed their notes, they were amazed to find how many of these things had been supplied. About this "thank you box" method the mother said later, "In our family we have learned to use this 'thank you box' in solving all problems. It has become a necessity in our household. By giving thanks before we receive, our problems have often been solved."

My thoughts:

I think this is a truely beautiful story. Personally I think there are a few factors at work here:

1) When you penning down your desire in the notes, you can actually tell the Universe - - your desire.

2) By T->F->A=R (Thoughts give Feelings, Feelings create Actions and Actions give your Results !  Subsconsiously, your mind is interacting with the Universe what is your feelings and with some actions, the Universe will work its way out to give you the results.

3) "Gratitude" is an element in "Thank You Box". By giving thanks, you are emitting love and good energy to the Universe. Every single savior of the world used gratitude, because they all knew that gratitude was one of the highest expressions of love. They knew that when they were grateful, they were living in exact accordance with the law. Why do you think Jesus said THANK YOU before he performed every miracle?

Every time you feel grateful you are giving love, and whatever you give, you receive. Whether you're giving thanks to a person or feeling grateful for a car, a vacation, a sun rise, a gift, a new house, or an exciting event, you are giving love for those things, and you will receive back more joy, more health, more money, more amazing experiences, more incredible relationships, more opportunities etc. 

I think it is good to try it out and see for yourself if it works for you !
