Clearing the Sticky Webs: Awakening a New Consciousness

 A beautiful photograph showing majestic mountain peaks underneath soft rolling clouds with open terrain stretching out into the distance.
A breathtaking view of the mountain terrain and distant horizons, captured by my son.

Original Writing: Clear me up Lord:

 Clear me up, Lord, of all the cobwebs, string by string. Clear the way to higher awareness. For there is no limit, when left, “To You.”

The strings are sticky because they have been webbed, for what seems like, a darkened eternity. By listening to the inner consciousness, we find a peephole of light. As letting go of surrounding powers, controlling your life.

Only one can control your life, and this is you, through Jesus Christ our Savior. By Him, we are born again, the old is past away, and the now in consciousness, is tomorrow, in reality. June 14, 1996.

Scriptures

2 Corinthians 5:17 – “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”

John 8:12 – “Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”

Psalm 119:130 – “The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.”

Affirmations

The Lord clears away every lingering obstruction from my mind, opening the path to higher awareness.

I let go of all outside forces trying to control my life, surrendering my journey entirely to Jesus Christ.

Through my Savior, I am born anew, walking out of darkness and step by step into a clear tomorrow.

Reflection

This profound piece captures the precise moment the soul demands to be untangled from the clinging, heavy remnants of the past.

Life can often feel as though it has been bound by sticky, intricate webs that have taken what feels like a darkened eternity to form, obscuring our view of the divine.

Yet, by quietly turning our focus inward and listening to the deep inner consciousness, we immediately discover that initial peephole of sacred light.

True spiritual breakthrough requires a deliberate letting go of the heavy worldly powers and negative influences that attempt to manipulate and dictate our existence.

We reclaim our absolute freedom only when we stand firm under the authority of Jesus Christ, our Savior.

In Him, the old structures completely pass away, and a beautiful, massive transformation takes place.

What we hold close in our active consciousness today becomes our tangible, peaceful reality tomorrow, proving that there are absolutely no human limits when our lives are fully left to God.

Flesh and Spirit: Discovering a Beautiful Oneness

 

Original Writing: Flesh and Spirit:

“I have pain in my left eye.”Do you see the difference between the flesh and the Spirit? I did not think “In Presence of Spirit” was a boring

A beautiful photograph of a massive, solid rock mountain with snow on its peaks under a vast sky, with no pavement or roads visible.
Standing unmovable in steadfast strength and quiet peace.

book. It is filled with the Spirit of Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit guided me through it.

You know, I have not written in months—nothing notable, anyway. But I still have many pages that have not been edited. I have sixty edited writings completed, printed as a book of their own. “Conversations with the Lord”—that is what I will call it. Ha… giggle.

I got caught up in the world—working, traveling. I went to Big Bend twice, to through the States, from here to Canada, then North Dakota, and back home. Not too much, but enough. And through it all, the hand of Jesus Christ was on my shoulder—even when I did not feel it.

The conscience… the right way, the wrong way… the deception of what we think is reality—when our true existence is through Jesus Christ.

We are spiritual beings, journeying through time toward the dawning of the Spirit within us—through Jesus Christ.

To see the veil lifted, so we may see, feel, and hear the Holy Spirit in His ever-presence.Jesus Christ stands firm within all people—within all spiritual beings since the beginning of time.

Our choices have been shaped in the midst of a broken world, yet regeneration comes through oneness with Christ Jesus, our Lord and Savior.

The Holy Trinity is the one true ruler of our souls. We will be alright—through Jesus Christ, who strengthens us. In good times and in hardship, in the ever-presence of our souls, we will overcome the darkness that surrounds the world.

Jesus Christ is at the highest level. The angels rejoice together. I felt you could use some encouragement—because in the oneness of truth through Christ Jesus, anything is possible. That passion through Christ is beyond words.

I am enjoying this—sharing time “In Presence of Spirit.” That is what it is:“In Presence of Spirit: A Journey from Darkness to the Light—A Song, A Praise, A Verse, A Prayer, A Poem—To You, With Love.”My dedication reflects what each of us is going through, even if no one admits it.

My words, through Christ, are out there—in time and space—and will be fulfilled in God’s time, not mine. Isn’t this something? It feels good to be free—to express a different perspective on our present reality.A gift from Jesus Christ.

A way to step beyond the outer world and into the inner truth—where He is. From a place without hope, into one faith—through Jesus Christ, our Lord of Lords, God of God.

The Father of “In Presence of Spirit,” working through me. Even through time, times, and seasons—the moment is here. Something will happen worldwide. It has been written by many.

In Christ, we are in the Holy Spirit’s presence, and the Holy Spirit is within us, and Christ surrounds us. He is here—guiding all things to fulfillment.The power and the glory forever. Amen.

How are you? Are you absorbing these words from my heart? Are they awakening something within you—this oneness with Christ again?A backslider does not always know how to return, with all the noise of the world.

We need stillness—to hear, to see, to understand what has been written on our hearts since the beginning. Time does not matter. We are alright. We will make it through—along with the world—through the Spirit of Christ within us all, waiting to be revealed.

To anyone who reads these pages—these are things I needed to say, and I have said them. If you read my letters, especially these recent ones, you may feel the difference—from my heart to yours—in faith, in the ever-presence of the Holy Spirit. It would be a shame to lose these pages—but not truly. They already exist in the realm of holiness, within us.

Free the women and the children.Free the world from darkness—Through Christ Jesus, who strengthens us.We are “In Presence of Spirit.”

The Holy Spirit knows why that phrase is repeated so often—it is my life’s work. Even though not a single book has been sold—can you believe that?

So many words… and one day, I will sit and read my own book. I have not done that yet. Strange, isn’t it? I have tried—but not in a long time. Still, it lives within me—everlasting words from Jesus Christ, written in love. One heart. One love. One hope. In faith of the eternal presence of our Father.

Thank You, Jesus Christ, for allowing me to write words that are positive, helpful, and fulfilling. A conversation of three—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—through Christ to us.(I had to stop writing. The pain in my eye became intense—like a migraine within my eye. I needed to rest.)

It is Sunday. I am isolating myself in the oneness of Spirit—to reflect, to be inspired, to continue what has been set before me. Even in hardship, declare the time of the Lord.

I was given a beautiful task—to write with the Lord. I needed that time… and I took it—ten years.

You know, I wrote “In Presence of Spirit”—the first piece—in April 1988. Thank God I still have the original. The Lord gave me a mission of my own. I must write to you—for some reason. It continues to flow, and I do not want to stop.

This is my calling.“Clarity of our true reality, through Christ Jesus, who strengthens us.”My eye began hurting again. I had to ice it. The pain eased, and I was able to sleep. I hope you are well. Forgive me for taking time to return to writing.

I send blessings—from my heart to yours: “Christ Jesus and Wendy—writing to the world.” Stop the madness. Turn to Jesus Christ.“

Reveal the inner parts of our soul’s journey. Without, you are lost—within, you are one in Spirit.” You can enter the inner chamber, where the Lord is—carrying you into tomorrow, which is only a breath away.

Endure. Stay strong. You are gifted. Use it for Christ. Help others find freedom from pain, and forgiveness through salvation in Jesus Christ.

Our Lord has guided us through the fire into “In Presence of Spirit”—one heart, one mind, one soul. Through Christ Jesus, who is ever-present. I have my index cards—names, dates, edits. Sixty completed pieces. I should bring it all together. I know the order—it just takes time. Everything has its place now. Not confusion—purpose.

I am growing in knowledge, and in oneness through Christ, and what He is doing through these writings—shared with you in love. Now it is “Conversations with the Lord,” and the husband of my youth—now my brother in Christ.

There is a reason for these words. I pray they open your heart to understanding.“Am I insane?” No—this is for the glory of God, in revelation of the heart and soul. I hope you are reading. This is the only way I can reach you—through “In Presence of Spirit.”August 21, 2005 First signs of narrow-angle glaucoma—eleven years now. Thank You, Lord, for sight. 

Scriptures:

Romans 8:1 – “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”

Romans 8:6 – “For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”

Galatians 5:16 – “This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not walk in the lust of the flesh.”

Affirmations: I walk securely in the Spirit of Christ, leaving behind the distractions of the flesh.

The peace of God reigns in my heart, bringing total clarity and divine stillness to my soul.

Christ strengthens me in every season, guiding my steps into His perfect fulfillment.

Reflection:
This writing stands as an enduring testimony to the beautiful reality that our true existence is never defined by physical limitations, worldly distractions, or the quiet isolation we sometimes experience.
Even when the outer world demands our presence through work, travel, and constant noise, the gentle, steady hand of Jesus Christ remains firmly on our shoulder.
It is in the deep, intentional stillness of the inner chamber—away from the chaos of a broken world—where the heavy veil is lifted and our souls undergo a true regeneration.
Our physical eyes may experience temporary pain or strain, but our spiritual sight remains completely clear, fixed entirely on the eternal glory of the Holy Trinity.
Walking in the Spirit means discovering a profound, unshakable freedom where time loses its grip and heart power takes over.
We are never truly lost or alone; we are resting safely inside the everlasting sanctuary of His grace, moving forward one breath at a time into a beautiful tomorrow.

Finding Ultimate Rest and Sanctuary in His Divine Presence

A beautiful photograph of a wide open field with majestic mountains in the background, a few peaceful trees, and a big sun shining in the right corner under a dark sky.
Finding the light peaking over the dark sky along our journey.

I Come to You

I Come to You: In Jesus name, Lord, I come to You in the presence of the Spirit.

Jesus, I am coming to You in the presence of myself, my dirty house, and my unsold book that You gave me. I bring my young adults, my grandchildren, and the unborn. I lay down the death of my mother, my twin’s hurt back, my lack of a job, and my animals that are not trained.

Furthermore, I bring my dad’s loss of his wife of fifty-two years. I lift up my sister and my brother. My aunts and uncles are elderly, and they have health issues.

Consequently, I pray for my cousins—all of them—and all their needs and discomforts. I bring Richard’s cerebral palsy, his disabilities, and the pain that he does not complain about. I remember our Davin James, who is with You in heaven.

Indeed, I bring all the aborted fetuses and all the lives lost to war. I lay down the abominations that have caused destruction.

I lift up all the drugs that cause havoc in people’s lives, and I pray for the cures for every illness. I bring Hailee Nicole Garcia’s fight for her life at five years old against a brain tumor. I lift up my three grown children and all my grandchildren.

Everyone seems to be in prison. For the car, we are still having problems.

I pray for all the homeless people. For all the pain and loneliness of the multitudes that have not found You, I know You are in the midst of them.

Therefore, I come to You, “In Presence of Spirit,” to heal the brokenhearted. Bring peace to the multitudes the world over. Stop the wars in our homes, in our countries, and in the world.

Hold fast Your Loving Spirit to wake up the people of the Congregation of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Jesus, I am asking in Your name, Jesus Christ, to bring blessings from Your abundant storehouse. I pray to bring Your faith alive through me. Give me the courage, hope, and love that I had thought I lost.

Ultimately, give me the courage to follow Your Voice. In the presence of Your Universal Law, ask and it shall be given. Hold fast my fast-kenning, knowing soul that has been quiet in me. Bring Your very Presence of Spirit, “To Love,” which Thou hast given me before the world was.

November 8, 2006

“Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.”

— 1 Peter 5:7 (KJV)

“He health the broken in heart, and binder up their wounds.”

— Psalm 147:3 (KJV)

DAILY AFFIRMATIONS

• I hand over every heavy family concern and personal trial to the Lord today, knowing He holds them all in His care.

• I allow the Holy Spirit to quiet my mind, clearing out haunting images and filling me with a fresh gift of courage.

• I stand on the promise of Universal Law, asking with bold faith and expecting the abundant blessings of His storehouse.

REFLECTION

True prayer means bringing our unedited, daily reality directly into the sanctuary of the divine.

When we stop trying to hide our human struggles—our family illnesses, physical pains, and unmet expectations—we open the door for absolute healing.

By surrendering the global heartbreaks and personal griefs that anchor us down, we allow our quiet, knowing souls to wake up and step fully into the eternal law of Christ’s perfect love.

In Presence of Spirit: Life is but a never-ending circle.

In Presence of Spirit: Life is but a never-ending circle

A beautiful photograph showing a different view of the calm, blue water lake with a grand mountain standing tall on the other side under perfectly clear skies.
A fresh perspective of quiet beauty and endless clarity across the living waters.

A fresh perspective of quiet beauty and endless clarity across the living waters.

Ageless at times but fascinating, the circles become cycles day by day, week by week, month by month, and year by year. Time is never-ending but standing still.

Prayers can reach the heavens, yet evil seems to lurk all around. Where do you turn?

Heaven is the way, not hell. Indeed, we are all here for a purpose, which is to fulfill God’s Plan. He is waiting and watching in every corner for His people to speak.

We must say: “I give back To You Dear Lord, what You have given me. I give my love, and my life to fulfill the plan You have made for every person on this planet we call Earth.”

Life is but a dream. The trials and tribulations we face are human-made. To fulfill Our Creator’s Plan, we need to pray. Consequently, we must give ourselves to the Lord, and then life will kick on in high gear.

God’s Plan is Everlasting Life. Ours is to repent our sins, to pray daily, to fast at times, and to believe that Our Lord Jesus Christ died for Our Salvation. He died so we may live eternal if we submit ourselves to God.

So many people are suffering in all negative ways. They try to reach for peace, but they cannot find it. Oh, so many destructive patterns man has made for himself!

God did not make these unfortunate circumstances. Ultimately, man started making these before the flood in Noah’s time.

It is true, “oh ye of little faith.” We lose our faith at the drop of a pin, but the Lord is there to pick us right up and love us no matter what.

Therefore, we can repent our sins. We can forgive ourselves and others, and hand it right to the Lord in Jesus name. What a joy to know we can be saved!

We can live beautiful, peaceful lives if we abide by the words through the prophets of God. Everything that the people of this world should know is right there in the Bible.

Our Eternal Lives are at hand. Give yourselves through Jesus Christ To God, and He will take care of every one of us. There is too much ugliness In The World.

So let us raise our hearts and minds to the heavens. Let us bring back the beautiful aspects of life. Furthermore, this will make us open souls, ready to rise to heaven when God is ready for us.

Let us not wait much longer. Love your husbands, love your wives, love your children, your family, your friends, and by all means love yourself. Think. Creative joy is in your hands.

I feel the imminent need to exercise My Rights As A United States Citizen. I claim My Rights of Freedom of Speech, My Rights of Freedom of Press, and My Rights of Freedom of Religion, which is spiritual entire of itself.

Last edit, “In Presence of Spirit,” Three decades old. Happy 30th Anniversary, “In Presence of Spirit,” The Original and the edited one—this one. I went from no words to “In Presence of Spirit” out of the blue. All the extensions are part of the whole of my conversations with the Lord. “You are and I am In Presence of Spirit in Conversations with the Lord.”

To You with Love, January 22, 2019, Wendy

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believe in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

— John 3:16 (KJV)

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

— 1 John 1:9 (KJV)

“And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.”

— Luke 11:2 (KJV)

DAILY AFFIRMATIONS

• I yield my entire life and love back to the Lord today, resting completely in the beautiful purpose He has made for me on this earth.

• I break away from every destructive human pattern, stepping fully into the high gear of creative joy, daily prayer, and steadfast faith.

• I lift my heart and mind directly to the heavens, keeping my soul wide open to receive His forgiveness and peace.

 

Reflection

Stepping into the everlasting circle of divine truth changes our perspective on human struggle.

 

While the temporary world manufactures continuous trials and destructive tendencies, the remedy remains simple and timeless: heartfelt submission and complete repentance.

 

When we consciously surrender our kept words and life paths back to our Creator, we uncover an unshakable, peaceful sanctuary that flows straight from eternity.

How to Stand Ready: It Will Be Accessible When Called Upon

It does matter how I read it. Will be accessible when called upon.

 A landscape photograph from a traveler's journey showing a massive solid rock mountain rising behind an open field with a few trees clustered at the very top.
Finding steady hope and beautiful, steady hope along the journey.

Thanks for waking me up from my coma—not literally.

I knew I was going to be by water this winter. Oh, ye of little understanding. Grow in the Word, and you will be clarifying God’s most wonderful gift.

We hear, but we have to get ourselves ready. We have to project our spirits together for power. The enemy is all around us, waiting to take another piece. You need to cleanse; let us go, we have work to do.

Our families are affected, and they need us to grab them out of the fire and into the light.

January 30, 1996 It Does Not Matter


“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.”
— Romans 13:11 (KJV)

“The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.”
— Psalm 18:2 (KJV)

“Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?”
— Isaiah 58:6 (KJV)

Daily Affirmations

I. Divine Awakening: I am fully awake to God’s timing, moving directly into the light and clarity of His most wonderful gift.

II. Accessible Strength: The power and protection of the Holy Spirit are completely accessible to me whenever I am called upon.

III. Family Deliverance: Through intercession and faith, I boldly reach out to help grab my family out of generational fires and anchor them safely in Christ’s light.

Reflection

Written in January 1996, this urgent and profound entry captures a sudden, awakening shift in spiritual focus.

Describing an internal rescue from a deep, long-standing “coma,” the text underscores the vital importance of personal preparation and alignment with the Word.

It serves as an active battle cry for spiritual cleansing, noting that the opposing spiritual forces are always ready to claim another fragment of our lives if we remain asleep.

Ultimately, the writing establishes a serious responsibility for families, urging us to step beyond personal comfort and step into our authority to snatch loved ones from the destructive fires of worldly inheritance and carry them into the safety of everlasting light.

How to Find Soul Prosperity When You Feel Alone

How to Find Soul Prosperity When You Feel Alone

A wide winter landscape photo of a vast frozen lake with a massive, snow-capped mountain peak rising on the far side beneath heavy cloud cover.
Anchored in stillness: a lake resting at the base of life’s most massive, snow-covered peaks.

In all my years of putting up with afflictions, I would never have come to my ultimate conclusion. I am like a lost sheep that does not have anywhere to go. Furthermore, I am in a strange land of opportunities, but I feel all alone.

Please help me, Jesus, in Your blood spread all over this world, and let us take action. For the wages of sin have come to their conclusion, and why should the innocent suffer without cause? I wish not death on this man that has judged me, but peace to the Earth.

You have taught me immeasurable lessons, and You alone walked me through the fire. I have no fight left. Oh, Jesus, I am scared. Please bring the Comforter down and rest with me while I grow in knowledge, wisdom, communication, compassion, understanding, and patience.

Lord, You put many words in my vocabulary. I thank You. Lord, keep near our children; You are the only one they can trust.

Hear them, Lord, each time they speak, for I know their pain. Lord, I have to say this: God bless him and her for their lack of knowledge; justification will come in Your time, not mine.

The pain is here, but I lift, as best I can, my pain, for it hurts to wait so long over something I have no control over.

Lord, I know You have not forsaken me, but what must I do now? Where shall I go to rest? Who do I talk to? Who is it that should tell me where to stay next? I feel I have nothing left. Am I to blame for all this mess?

My father said, “You are not a messenger of God.” I say, “Everyone is a messenger of God. We all need to find God this generation, for it is up—not the end of time, but the beginning of eternity.”

Our lives are muddled in all the generational garbage that man and his ancestors have kept alive: greed, materialism, and wants, not needs. Everyone is affected.

I need to write to the afflicted; I am not alone. I have to fight for God’s truth, in God’s time.

“In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.” Thanks be to God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost.

I have nowhere to hide. Show me Your Way. Show me through Your Eyes. Show me through Your Guidance.

Show me through Your Courage, understanding, wisdom, fortitude, acceptance, and patience. The Oneness of Eternity which You possess.

Bring Your Word Alive through me. Let me be diligent in receipt of Your Gift to me, and let’s together proclaim the prosperity of soul, life through Jesus Christ our Savior.

March 4, 1996


“What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?”
— Luke 15:4 (KJV)

“Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.”
— Psalm 39:12 (KJV)

“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”
— Isaiah 41:10 (KJV)

Daily Affirmations

I. Guided Steps: I am never a truly lost sheep, because Jesus Christ knows my exact location and is actively guiding my soul through this strange land.

II. Ultimate Comfort: I release my heavy fears and exhaustion to the Comforter, allowing His divine wisdom, patience, and fortitude to rest upon me while I grow.

III. A Messenger of Truth: I am a unique messenger of God’s eternal love, called to write comfort to the afflicted and bring His living Word alive through my testimony.

Reflection

Written in the early spring of 1996, this deeply transparent piece captures the profound vulnerability of feeling completely isolated in a transitional wilderness.

Standing at a crossroad of deep exhaustion and fear, the author models absolute surrender by turning away from human judgment and pouring out a raw prayer directly to Jesus Christ.

The text powerfully identifies the universal truth that everyone is called to be a messenger of divine grace, breaking free from muddled generational cycles of greed and materialism.

By crying out for the Comforter, this poignant message transforms an intense season of affliction into a training ground for spiritual growth, anchoring a broken heart in the ultimate realization that soul prosperity and rest belong entirely to Christ.

Reflection

While the storms of the world rage on the outside, a quiet, divine work takes place on the inside.

The Lord shields our innermost being, keeping us safe so that we can emerge to capture hidden spiritual knowledge and remarkable revelations.

True peace is found when we realize that the kingdom of heaven is not a distant reward to wait for after human death, but an active, living presence dwelling inside the soul right now.

By turning the key of faith, we unlock an infinite union with Jesus Christ. This piece calls us to step out of the shadows of the past and into the radiant dawn of the here and now, where true life begins.

The book is a blessing; I cannot help that I believe this. I have always thought the book was not about me. “My search through the valleys, and tunnels, that my life’s circumstances have unfolded.” But it is. I did not mean to be vain, in any way.

My boldness is in the spirit of the Lord’s presence, where everything is possible. Thus the I of Me, speaks for everyone, not just myself. So it is alright that, I am in the presence of spirit in conversations with the Lord, because I am.

Thank you, Jesus, for the presence of your spirit in all our conversations. Bless the husband of my youth, with the wealth of, Your Spirit, indwelling his ever-presence, and bring him, where you need him to be. Thank you, Jesus.

My eyes, I am staying out of the sun. Even with double sunglasses, I have blind areas in my eyes. I have given Jesus my love, my attendance, and every page is “In Presence of Spirit.” But for me, I have not given myself, entirely to my Savior, for I feel, I am unworthy. The Lord still forgives me and gives me the OK, to publish Our Conversations With The Lord.

Jesus Christ, steadfastly I call out into the barren wilderness of all the lost souls. Bring them closer to home, bring them inside, themselves, where you are, “In Presence of Spirit.” September 2009

Scriptures

Luke 1:45
And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.

Ephesians 3:12
In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.

Psalm 23:4
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Affirmations

I stand boldly in the presence of the Lord, trusting that He has blessed my writings to speak to the hearts of everyone who reads them.

Though I may feel unworthy, I fully accept the Lord’s complete forgiveness and His divine permission to publish our sacred conversations.

My words are a guiding light sent into the barren wilderness to bring lost souls safely back home into the presence of Spirit.

Reflection

“The Book is a Blessing” serves as a profound threshold where personal affliction is completely transformed into a global spiritual sanctuary.

Walking through the darkest tunnels and valleys of life can leave a soul feeling isolated and physically worn.

Yet, when we surrender our lives entirely to the Savior, we discover that our deepest trials were never meant to remain hidden.

True boldness is born out of this total reliance on the Holy Spirit, allowing an ordinary person to become a voice for the multitudes.

Even in moments where human sight fades and feelings of unworthiness creep in, the Lord provides His steady confirmation to move forward.

This piece stands as a beautiful call into the barren wilderness, assuring every searching heart that true awakening is always waiting right inside themselves.

Fears, Worries, and Anxieties: From Darkness to the Light

Original Writing: Fears, Worries, and Anxieties

A stunning view across a peaceful lake looking at a massive, singular snow-capped mountain standing majestically on the opposite shore under a clear sky.
Finding beauty and steady hope in His eternal presence.

Grew up in a close Latin Family, My twin, Dad, and I were the only white, people on my mom’s side of the family.

Whose suffering is it? Where is the shame? Well, for all, it is covered, until the dawning of the age, when all will be, laid out. For all to see, the unraveling, of the misconceptions of the false passed down, from all our ancestors.

Words being said, without meaning. In the outer sphere of awareness, which is in darkness. Until the real spark is ignited, to the answers from the darkness of the outer to the ever-present light of the inner.

The inner kingdom, which is in expectancy, for all men and women to come inside, to the truth of, Christ in all our existence. The core of understanding. The inward soul becomes part of the whole. In one heart, in one mind, in one soul.

From the outside, abominations to the clearing off, the cobwebs, from without to within. In Christ’s presence, there go I, and I am infinite, in the Universal Law of Cause and Effect.

We are the chosen. We all can come into, Father God, The Clearing, so the regeneration of the holy words can accomplish itself and bring peace to the multitudes. December 15, 1997.

Scriptures

John 12:46
I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

Luke 17:21
Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

Ephesians 4:4
There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

Affirmations

I step out of the outer darkness and ancestral misconceptions, walking completely in the ever-present inner light of Christ.

My inward soul is cleared of all earthly cobwebs, perfectly united with my Creator in one heart, one mind, and one soul.

I enter into Father God’s divine clearing, where holy words regenerate my spirit and bring absolute peace to my being.

Reflection

“Fears, Worries, and Anxieties” opens a sacred window into the process of spiritual untangling. Growing up amidst deep family dynamics can weave silent threads of inherited suffering, unmeaning words, and cultural misconceptions that cloud the soul’s true identity.

Yet, the outer sphere of darkness completely loses its power the moment a real spiritual spark is ignited within the heart.

This writing reminds us that the true kingdom of God is never found in external validation or ancestral patterns, but in a dedicated withdrawal into the inner chamber of the soul.

By boldly stepping into Christ’s presence, the cobwebs of false beliefs are completely cleared away. We find our ultimate baseline existence in one unified spirit, opening the door to a universal regeneration that spreads comfort and steady hope to all who are searching.
