Quote by Joanna Southcott

My faith grew strong, and I sent a letter (as I was ordered) to the Rev. Dignitary of the Cathedral of Exeter. I was assured, before I sent it, he would not answer it.

My faith grew strong, and I sent a letter (as I was ordered)

Summary

The quote suggests that the speaker's faith became stronger, leading them to send a letter to the Reverend Dignitary of the Cathedral of Exeter. However, they already anticipated that their letter will remain unanswered, despite following the orders to send it. The implication could be that the act of sending the letter was not necessarily intended to receive a response, but rather to reinforce their own faith and commitment.

Success with money, family, relationships, health, and caree

Success with money, family, relationships, health, and careers is the ability to reach your personal objectives in the shortest time, with the least effort and with the fewest mistakes. The goals you set for yourself and the strategies you choose become your blueprint or plan. Strategies are like recipes: choose the right ingredients, mix them in the correct proportions, and you will always produce the same predictable results: in this case financial success. The success strategies for managing money and building wealth are called Money Strategies. By learning to use money strategies as a part of your day-to-day life, financial frustration and failure will become a thing of the past.
