​Whenever you ask for something, do it the PRESENT tense.
​Whether you say it out loud, in your head, write it down you should say something like

I am so happy and grateful now that ............................
I am so happy and grateful I am...............
I am so happy and grateful .................. is back in my life

​Affirmations should always be in the present tense.

If you say, I would really like this or I want that or I wish I could have blah blah blah, it's saying you don't have it and you're lacking which can show lack of confidence and trust and you have doubt.

PRESENT TENSE!!!!
