I thought I'd want a more spacious, red one, that didn't need the maintenance headaches I was having with my old car-- that was my bottomline requirement. At that time, the Toyota Innova had just hit the market and I thought I wanted something quite like it.
So, I researched the Innova at Toyota's website and downloaded a picture of a red Innova for my desktop. Then when I'd see a Toyota Innova on the streets, I'd smile at it, as if in greeting and recognition, and say a secret prayer, "Thank You, God, for the Toyota Innova coming our way!" : ) : ) : )
This begun last December, 2005. But, over four months, it has gotten to be such a habit that even just seeing the Toyota logo anywhere automatically prompts me to smile and thank for the Toyota coming our way. : ) I wasn't in a hurry; in fact, I was having fun.
I didn't care nor worry anymore about how it will come about; I just trusted that it will, in time, when it is right.
At around the same time, my brother, T, felt sorry for my frequent car troubles, especially after he learned that the kids and I would frequently absent ourselves from school and work when the car conked out, as we couldn't afford the extra P300 a day taxi budget for commutes, in addition to the car trouble costs. He broached to Papa about helping us out with a new secondhand car, and Papa said yes, with an express maximum budget of only 100k.
Last Wednesday, April 12, when my brother, T, took Papa out to see a 1995 Kia that they could buy for me given Papa's budget, Papa was riveted to this Toyota Vios instead. It is funny that the Kia they were intending to buy was owned by somebody who wanted this Vios, that's why he was selling the Kia to add to his funds for this Vios. But when Papa saw and test drove this Vios, he decided to get it instead, even if it was four times way above his intended budget. He paid for it in cash. Knowing how very strict and cost conscious Papa is, this in itself is already a miracle!!!
Prayers do get answered, in God's own ways, and dreams do come true.
I got the almost brand new (only 10 months used) red, spacious car I prayed for, indeed, and in just four months!!!
Thank You, God, for the Toyota Vios that has come our way!!!

Do you mind if I ask, where did your Grandpa buy this Vios. Was it through a Toyota car dealer? My brother need a vehicle so bad so he could rent it out to tourists as part of his main livelihood. He drives a taxi that is owned by someone else and had to pay an enormous fees each day, so he'd like to turn his life around by not having a huge franchise fee anymore so he could support himself and his family. I pray that we could find one too just like you did and hopefully one that is only a couple months old with a low mileage. I would appreciate any help.
Hi, Lin!
No I don't mind your asking-- my dad bought it second hand from a new car broker (in fact, we were his first sale!) : )
You and your brother already know the details of what you want. That is very good! Nothing is impossible.
Now you and him only need to get out of your way (meaning, clear the "blockages"-- feelings and thoughts trying to negate what you want), so what you want can manifest freely, fully and quickly.
I would suggest filling your mind with thoughts and readings that support this. What I do is sign up for free Manifesting newsletters which arrive in my inbox everyday. The following have helped me (you can Google search for their site addresses): The Science of Getting Rich Network, Anisa Aven, ManifestLife.com, Jeanette Maw, Dr. Joe Vitale's "The Attractor Factor".
They differ only in presentation and focus but manifesting principles are essentially the same.
I also do meditation to clear my mind quicker. Suggested free audios are Holosync and Jody Sachse's HAV1 music. (The links are here somewhere in this blog, in other posts.)
(Hmmmm... maybe I should write a post about this huh? What I have learned so far about the Basic How Tos, the tips and guides, and the principles...)
Expect success, Lin!
I love your blog! I really enjoy reading your posts and I think it will really help me daily. Check out mine too. I'd love your suggestions. Thanks!
