Hi Shay!
Thank you for your messages and prayers. Your answers always go to the core of things. They are simple and true. I love to read them. I hear about so many people lately who can communicate with spirits and angels. Why is this possible for some and not others? Although I've had signs all through my life, I've never been able to really see or hear spirits, except once when I was very little. The messages were never clear, though. I talk to my angels, and although I know they are there to protect me, I can never feel their presence. I even tried to pray the way you said, counting down, but I often fall asleep before finishing. Maybe I'm not spiritual enough? Or maybe there are too many distractions during the day.
Why does talking to and seeing angels come so easy for some, but not for the rest of us? Some don't even make an effort and things happen. I asked Jesus to reveal my angel to me, so that I can learn his or her name...but nothing happened. Oh well, I'm so behind. This is nothing new. I've often felt like a failure for various reasons. I find it hard to think that when I show up in heaven, angels will rejoice at my arrival, drop what they are doing and throw a big party in my honor. Most likely I see myself fading into the background. I'm talking silly, I know, but I am in a silly mood tonight. It might have to do with some disappointments I have had lately, but I'm doing my best to rise above them.
I read your answer to Letter #63. All through my life I've felt some sort of rejection. Those who matter to me DO appreciate me and that's the important thing, but it seems like this pattern of rejection always continues. So much so that I finally think I should learn something from it in order to grow spiritually. Perhaps I am a strong soul also. Not that I have had to endure terrible things, but I've had my challenges, just like everyone else I suppose.
Anyway, thank you again for your prayers. I will pray for you! And thank you for be so patient as to listen to my silly gabbling.
