The Prepaid Credit Card

My young cousin just started his first job. He was happy to be making his ‘own money’ as he referred to it. I smiled when he told me this, but I was not going to be the one to let him know that his money is never his own. It goes to the butcher, the baker, and the banker. If you are lucky, you may see the back of the dollar bills as they quickly leave your hand.

Anyway, this day, he saw me and started to wave excitedly, he was trying to catch my attention.
“Look,” he exclaimed proudly, “I have my first bank card!”

I peered at the card trying to read what was on it. It said Prepaid Credit Card. A what? What is a prepaid credit card? My too-early-in-the morning brain was not doing its normal happy chugging, but that sounded like an oxymoron to me.
He explained that having the card means he is able to purchase items from the internet, as long as he topped up the card with cash beforehand. But doesn’t a credit card mean that you can use it and then pay at a later date?
I was confused but what flashed across my mind as he continued to explain the benefits of having such a card, was a sense of gratitude that the Universe will never offer us a prepaid credit card.

We come into this existence with our money bags full to running over. We come with abundant blessings and grace. We know that Source is always available for free top-ups whenever we ask and there is a never-ending supply of all that we need and want, we get to choose.

What we get is exactly what we ask Source Intelligence for, the good, the bad, and the indifferent, as my mother likes to say.

So what not ask for all good things?

Why not ask for abundance and blessings?

We do not have to top up anything and there is no pay-back period.

There is no oxymoron, its simply ‘ask and it shall be given unto you’

No fine print
No tricky clause
No prepaid credit
No tricks, no gimmicks

Just goodness and mercy all the days of our lives!
