It's easy to understand why some would scoff at this. You can almost hear their incredulity: "You mean All Power is there with me in a gambling casino? Helping me to win? Ridiculous."

Where can we go that He isn't? The poet Tennyson had it right: "Closer is He than breathing, and nearer than hands and feet." We have been told that the very hairs of our head are numbered. Can you tell us how many hairs there are on your head? All Knowledge knows. The scoffer has but a tenuous connection to the Power. He doesn't understand who he is, so he has to rely on luck and a rabbit's foot. It would do well for the scoffer to remember that the rabbit had four of them when he was alive and obviously didn't fare all that well.

There are some people who declare themselves losers even before they arrive at the casino. How many times have you heard a conversation similar to this:

"Going to Las Vegas, are you?'

"Yep. Got to go make my contribution to pay for their electric light bill."

What you say is what you get. The subconscious mind is not receptive to comedy. It isn't a Saturday Night Live audience; it doesn't know when a person is kidding. It always believes what is spoken because what comes out of a person's mouth indicates what's going on inside his head, so it simply picks up on that person's negative comment, obediently slips into a loser mode and produces what is called for. You should never, ever, say anything that you don't want to bring into reality. It's important to eliminate every aspect of negativity in conversations. This isn't easy to do because whenever two or more people meet in a social atmosphere, the talk frequently turns to the problems they presently have. So watch who you run with. Life is tough enough without surrounding yourself with a circle of bellyachers.

You can have what you want if you believe that you can. Ask for it, accept that your subconscious mind, which is an expression of Infinite Mind, can bring it into being, and then relax and allow it to happen. Expect to win when you visit a casino, know that you will, and you will. Those cards in Blackjack and Mini-Baccarat, the dice at the Craps table, and those video poker machines are under your mental control through the Power within you. That's guaranteed--not by the author of this article but by All-That-Is.
