October 3, 2003 Remember when we were all worried about what would happen when the year 2000 hit? I didn't do much to prepare actually, even though I should have since I'm a single mother. If I remember correctly, I bought two cases of bottled water and that was it. Then I sat glued to the TV, watching each country ring in the new year. I wasn't scared. I loved every minute of it. We all know nothing happened when "It" changed. Again I waited as 2001 rang in, as this WAS the true Century change. Nothing. Nothing spectacular changed; just the year. So it's 2003 and I'm asking myself questions. Has my approach to life changed AT ALL since 2000 when we all thought the world was going to stop? In some respects I'm proud to say no, it hasn't. In other respects, I am ashamed to admit, it hasn't. What do you think about your own life? Have you made ANY changes at ALL? I know there are many times when I'm sitting with friends giggling and telling stories when I stop myself internally and externally and I may say, "Wait a minute...an angel lady cannot laugh at these things." But the truth is. I do. I'm human and I think God is not so happy with me lately BECAUSE I've been away too long. I'm not any more special than any other person on this planet. I'm not any more special than YOU, my guests on Trinity. You may THINK I am because I can hear the angels and many times I see your loved ones on the other side, but the truth is, if you met me in a crowd....you wouldn't know me. You couldn't pick me out except for one thing...if you asked me to help you in any way...I would. I am the person who always lets you get in front of me in traffic. I step out of the way when I see you have lots to carry and you really should be the first in line. I am the driver who entertains you when we've been waiting for the same red light to change green. Your spirit is lifted when you see me singing at the top of my lungs to some song that moves me. It gets lifted even more when I look over and I DO NOT stop singing and we drive on. I'm the giggly person in your life...everyone has someone like this. Don't mistake me for the eternal optimist. I'm not. I just like a good laugh when I find one. Sometimes, I can be in the pit of despair and you cannot help me. It really means, I won't let you. In time, I'll come back around. You know me don't you? (For those of you who may be dense...you KNOW someone like me, don't you?) I pick
out my groceries the same as you do, although you will find I spend extra
time in the ethnic isle...(I just have to read all the labels...even
though I cannot cook to save my life.) I buy the candles there that
burn for seven days...devotional candles. I always have them burning
in my home....attached are my prayers for my family, for myself and for
YOU. (If you would like to buy these candles, they cost a mere .99)
--you can get them at Kroger's in the Hispanic isle, or in the Meier's
ethnic isle or if you have a Value Market...you will find them in the Hispanic
section. MOST grocery stores carry them now. If you can't find
them, write to me...I can send you some. The angels LOVE them and
they are VERY inexpensive. (Alexis) I don't know what my devotion to these candles really means actually. I'm a Catholic and we have these candles in the church but WHO ever thought we'd be able to find them to buy for our homes.? I like it SO much better in my home. Something about being able to watch the flame and pray whenever I see it. I think that's the gist. It doesn't matter. I digress. We are about to embark on a new chat season at Trinity; the first in many years. I want you to know before we start, that I am humbled and honored to be able to hopefully lead you all to the angels. They SO much want to hear from you and to know you and to help you...those of you who haven't discovered them yet. Stop right now and realize this...that is SO important. Sit very still. YOU ACTUALLY have a guardian angel or TWO and they belong SOLELY to YOU.. (It's a big thing to realize. The sooner you do, however, the better your life will be,) I will be asking for your full participation if you come to class and sometimes...you might have to light the candles. because I do know for a fact that the angels see candlelight SO much better than anything else. So let's just see if our approach to life should remain the same, or should we alter it in order to be more in tune with our unseen, yet not unrecognized helpers...the angels. Please join me when I start our angel workshops. We are only two weeks away! My love to all Alexis |
