These ideas are astonishing; and you'll feel empowered as they comfort, encourage, and enlighten you on your journey to financial deliverance, even prosperity.While the author learned these principles in a secular arena through more than a decade of study and successful application, she now hopes to bring the principles to God-fearing people everywhere. How often have we been promised, "Ask and ye shall receive?" The problem is we don?t really believe it. Why? Because, so often it just doesn?t happen. So how does one develop the kind of faith required to see miracles in his/her financial life?"There is a law, irrevocably decreed in heaven before the foundations of this world, upon which all blessings are predicated?and when we obtain any blessing from God, it is by obedience to that law upon which it is predicated" (Doctrine and Covenants 130:20-21). So if you've ever wondered: "If the 'righteous shall prosper,' why am I so broke?" or, "Do I 'set my heart upon riches,' or just resign myself to the smothering prison of debt and the stain of poor credit?" ...then this book is for you.The answers to these questions (and many more) are the very answers which led Leslie and her husband to finally escape their own financial bondage, AND develop a closer relationship with God through the process. While the author is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the ideas and applications of scriptures are solely her own and do not necessarily represent the beliefs or doctrines of any particular denomination. In a compelling way, she brings hope to individuals in strained relationships, mothers who want to come home from work, and fathers who want to spend more time with their family. Hidden Treasures brilliantly delivers a profound message of hope for all who believe there is a God.
