We are living in hard times. There are battles to be fought on almost every front including political, economic, environmental, religious, all over the planet. Yet, I wonder if we are missing the greatest battle, the most deadly one: that of the inner nature of the human being. How we succeed or fail at this inner battle will determine the way our individual and global life will be in the coming millennium.
All my life I have been blessed with visionary gifts. This means that I have higher sight and can view the spiritual realms. My first recollection of life takes me back to my cradle when I saw my guardian angel, and recognized that my parents did not understand that I was an experienced soul in a baby's body that could not speak but just gurgle. The frustration was great. It was only with the help of my guardian angel that I was able to remember to use my intuitive ability to communicate, such as asking my father to come into the room and cover me up from a draught. Years later I asked him about these incidents and he said that he heard a voice in his mind tell him about the draught and he knew I wanted that area behind my neck covered.
I would say that this is not unusual. What I believe happens is that most babies forget the early years, and the memories of working with the angels. I remained awake and took a very special interest in the difference between humans and angels. I saw the angels around people trying to comfort and guide them while the adults seemed to ignore the angels. I wondered why this was so. It became clear to me there was a great deal of unnecessary suffering.
I also knew as an infant that God exists and that Christ Jesus was and is and will always be with humanity. I did not have to learn of these truths, but had a natural inclination to explore the works of God in nature, and did so for hours in the woods as a little girl, with a younger brother in tow. Hours and hours were spent examining flowers and leaves, sunlight and shad ow while making trails through the woods. I delighted in completing my work by sweeping the earthen trails with a kitchen broom, which my parents did not appreciate! It was from those special times that I knew I was to spend my life working with the angels.
One day I had an experience that led to the main motivation for my career in artwork, spiritual research, writing, counselling and healing. It filled me with the faithful perseverance that has led me through many trials and tribulations and through miracle after miracle. The event coloured everything I do in the name of God.
What happened on that day was both natural for me and yet overwhelming. It began as I walked across our beautiful lawn on my way to school as a first-grader. I heard lovely music behind me, up in the air. Without turning around, I was able to see with my soul and spirit the veils of heaven open behind me, with millions and millions of angels gathered between earth and the Godhead. I fell to my knees and began to weep with the extraordinary beauty of what I experienced. Tears came also because I realized how much I loved that realm. I understood the meaning of what was being shown to me, and I knew there was a lifetime before me when I would often agonize between the ecstasy of God and the difficulties of day-to-day living.
I knew at that moment it was possible for human suffering on the earth to be transformed if humanity remembered the love and the help of God available through the angelic hierarchies. And so began my life's work. During those walks in the woods I had noticed that I experienced different feelings when I looked at certain colours of flower or leaf. I often felt that the colour of the green leaves healed my heart when I was feeling pain because of arguments at home. I knew that there was comfort, and a special healing available to me, and perhaps to others through colour and shapes, or forms. My fascination led to extensive research on the effects of colour and consciousness. By the time I reached the threshold of my twenties, I had examined the works of eastern philosophers, various religious streams, and many western sources as well, including the works of an initiate known as Rudolf Steiner.
I took my natural ability to enter into the spiritual realms, and disciplined the ability to perceive so that I could have access with control, and so that I might become a finer instrument for translating the messages from the higher worlds to humanity. I learned quite early that colours and sounds could not only heal the body, mind and soul because of their effects but because they were directly connected to angelic beings of high rank.
Over the next twenty-five or so years I learned to produce paintings that could heal as well as expand consciousness to greater alignment with Divinity. People's lives were changed. I began to speak on the workings of the angelic hierarchies, and with the combination of my paintings and spiritual guiding work I became known as the Angel Lady. I am sure that there are many who share this name all over the world. And there are some angel gentlemen as well!
One thing that I have been noticing for a long time is that people are often amazed at the level of faith I seem to have. Yes, it has led me to do near impossible things over and over, sometimes with incredible opposition. My faith in God stays strong. This book will perhaps increase your faith in God and the angelic helpers who do the bidding of the Divine.
There are many books about angelic appearances and incidents of wonder. This was not the mission given to me when delivering this Message to you. My mission has required courage to state the strong message to all peoples of the world: that it is time to change our way of thinking and our lifestyles. We are close to annihilation on many levels if we continue to travel the path that we are now on globally. The angels of God want to help us, but first we must ask God for their assistance. This book is an answer to how we can attain their assistance, and transform the problems that confront us.
One such message within is that, in our civilization, de terioration of individual responsibility has reached the proportions of a major plague. Lethargy and apathy are rampant except in areas of financial or political concern. We must face our crucial role in saving life from the opposing forces of darkness that are operative in our third and fourth dimensions at this time.
It is also time for us to lift the obstacles of false thinking so that we can receive true heavenly nourishment, whether through wisdom, freedom, or energy to transform through the right use of money. Our attitude and practices with money around the world have caused a major hindrance to the angels of God in providing nourishment and support to workers of light and goodness everywhere. Yes, there are positive happenings, but minuscule in comparison to the extreme level of greed which is on the earth at the moment.
It was my own personal faith in God that enabled me to withstand some of the blows of human existence which ranged from the loss of children to the loss of most sight in one eye. Yet there was always a blessing to follow. When I came out of surgery in extreme pain I was blessed with the presence of a Holy Being in my room who said that I was not losing something, but receiving a great gift. I did not understand until a while later when my paintings began to change and become radiant in a very special way. I was given the ability to see inwardly even more than I had before and my physical sight was reduced to receive the higher vibrations I was to translate for humanity through the colours of my paintings. I felt very close to Beethoven who had received a dimming of his external ears to translate the heavenly spheres for his Ode to Joy. Many years later I actually produced a very special painting called the Ode to Joy by visiting and portraying the realms from where he created the music for that piece. It is impossible to count the numbers of angels in that painting.
I am a lover of fine gems because of the way they reflect the colours of God, and how human skill has enhanced them to their brilliance and sparkle. I think of words in the same way, and that there is need for the right shaping of a document, or combination of words to reflect the light of God. If I provide a pathway that is clear, then miracles of healing clarity can stream through the words to you, as a beautiful stone flashes light and brings joy.
In this painting of words I hope to meet you in your heart. I hope to inspire you to open yourself to the realms of heaven and to come closer to Divinity. I seek not to have you venerate angels but to love God even more and perhaps to understand why experiences are so difficult at this time on earth.
There are many religious books about angelic hierarchies and many books about personal experiences of angelic intervention. This book is for the purpose of explaining the prob lems of human existence so that we can safely make our way through our experience on earth and so that the planet itself will be able to continue to be our home.
I emphasize the involvement of free will in the relationship between angels and us. Always the heavens are aware that you may choose to refuse change even if it would be for the betterment of your life and the lives of others here on earth. My hope is that you will feel the love of the angels beckoning you to step beyond your limits and take an active role in overcoming the negative influences of the rebellious angels that are destroying societies all around the globe. It is true indeed that the real battle of greatest concern is the behind-the-scenes battle between the forces of darkness and the angels of God over the human soul.
One other area of interest to me and of importance to our planet is the field of medicine.
There are many breakthroughs happening and holistic healing is upon us in many parts of the world. I have been working for the past few years helping in intuitive diagnostic support for physicians and to assist the transition of the physician into that of a true healer in preparation for the new millennium which has now dawned. It is time for the spiritual and the scientific to join for the betterment of the human condition.
The time is upon us to develop new ways to act in response to the many threats from the angels of darkness. They are leading us in a sleepy condition to an imminent abyss. We need only listen to our news reports to see the extent of the problem. Some of us have recognized the threat and taken steps to transform the inner work to avoid a personal abyss but many have not yet moved to take on the planetary concern for the whole family of humanity.
To achieve the goal we need a shift of focus from the appearance of angels themselves to the messages they bring. We need to take the message seriously and accept the help of our Creator before it is too late. It is a good thing to remember that angels do not belong to any particular religion. If the world's religions recognized today that angels are everywhere, in cathedrals, churches, temples, mosques, tents, teepees, houses, and open air, we would have a common denominator upon which we could all agree. As you read this book your own religious life, whatever it is, should be enhanced. And for those of you who have a more general spiritual approach, this book will expand your connection to the heavens.
There is a wonderful secret that you might appreciate knowing while you read this book. Your angel will actually share the experience with you and has the power to clarify the thoughts that are important for your life. Some passages may be more difficult than others. Some require rereading a few times and others you might want to share with your friends. I recommend that along with reading you take time for prayer and inner work. Moments for serious contemplation or meditation will only enrich your experience. I know that you will probably be asking yourself how this material came to me. I have often had the experience of a visit by high-level angelic beings who ask me to do certain things on behalf of humanity. I held three conferences on angels, the last of which was in Italy and included a pilgrimage to Assisi to offer prayers for mercy for humanity. The response was a visitation by the Divine Mother who appeared with a rainbow from one hand to the other, and we knew the prayers had been answered. We never were told the precise disaster that had been averted, but we knew that it was global in nature. The day after this pilgrimage we were back in Florence which was our headquarters for the conference. During the spiritual exercises of the day, I was given a revelation that it was time for me to `speak the words of Father God' to humanity. I was not sure exactly what that meant until I returned from Italy and was contacted by the original publisher of this book, Ballantine, and asked if I would submit material. The original title was The Angels are Calling, which then became A Message for the Millennium, and now the new edition which is A Message for Humanity.
I did not have an easy time with the original publication. There were tremendous forces of opposition seeking to block the circulation of that first edition. Even worse, at one point the manuscript was itself mangled and chopped up into unrecognizable form by a consulting editor who chose to eliminate all references to God! I had to cut and paste the book back together to its original state. Even now there are portions of it that are forever lost. However, I made it through and have been blessed with the opportunity to release it through Clairview.
My way of receiving the material was to be in a state of continuous enlightenment during the writing. I did not only `see' the angelic hierarchies, I rather received complete messages they wished humanity to hear. Sometimes I would have angelic `editing' also, and words would be lost or changed on the computer. This taught me a lot about how God and His workers can work through matter or energy. Once I lost a whole chapter on Christ Jesus, and wept. I felt a hand on my shoulder and there was a radiant being saying that it was not a mistake, that I was to use that material in a separate book and focus on the messages as given relating to the angels and overcoming the forces of opposition.
I prayed each time I came to the computer, and I felt often as if I was a hollow vessel which was filled and then poured out on to the pages. Oftentimes I cried because my writing was so imperfect in comparison to the beauty and love of God which I sought to portray.
This process of receiving from the Divine is not new; nor is it unusual. It has been going on since the beginning of time. You too can receive, through your higher self, guidance on anything in the world you seek to know about. And you can receive the help of the angels if you only ask. Always, though, I encourage people to focus on the message and not the one who delivers it, for then we do not lessen the gift from heaven.
There is a promise to you from the higher worlds that the heavens within you will open if you choose to open your consciousness. The angels of God seek to lift your heart, your mind, and your soul as never before and share with you the glory that is beyond your wildest dreams. Heaven is waiting for you to accept the offer and receive the blessings.
May your life be surrounded in goodness and light while you read this gift from the heavens to you to bring clarity to your world and inspire you with your life. May each page be nourishment for your soul now and in the times to come. |
