Casual and conversational, Hidden Treasures presents the Universal Laws of Abundance from a spiritual perspective. 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.

Leo and his little sister, Lucy, are going on a hiking adventure with their Grandma Dana and her mini dachshund, Tilly Lu, along the Saint Louis River. They’re excited to play “I spy” and see what treasures they can find. When Leo spots an old bottle floating in the river, they pull it out and discover that it contains a map and three stones, each with a special word. The map is full of hints to directing the way to the hidden treasure of the Sax-Zim Bog. Grandma Dana tells Leo and Lucy the story behind the Sax-Zim Bog, which was once a raging sea home to many mystical creatures, mermaids, and pirates. The most feared pirate was Captain Copper Ravenoski, and he set out to find a treasure hidden by an enchantress—the very treasure described by the map. Now Grandma Dana, Tilly Lu, and the kids have a chance to take a magical journey and find that treasure themselves. But they’ll have to face many dangers and challenges along the way. In this children’s tale, a grandmother, her dog, and her two grandchildren set out on a hike one day and stumble into an adventure in search of a secret treasure.
