About this ebook

Is it possible to know God? Is it possible to experience God? Is it possible to hear Him speak?
My journey with God unfolds: the highs, the lows, the mistakes, and the victories. In my story, you will see how I developed faith and experienced results. You will see my struggles and what I needed to do to continue on with God.
Does having a relationship with God have to continue to be a mystery or thought of as impossible? I can't figure out why it has to be this way. Many so blindly read the scriptures, read how God moved and talked in the lives of people, yet, still, believe He doesn't do it today. Pure nonsense. Many believe this can only happen by a "special" person with a high theological degree or deemed a saint of God. Another lie. Anyone born again is a saint of God. Surprise!
Can anyone experience God? Absolutely! How? First, be born again. Next, walk into His house, sit at His feet, and have a One on one talk. Go Face to face with the Master and have ears to hear. Simple? Yes; it is simple to do.
Let my story encourage you to know your Creator.

Truth be told, I like to write and help people. As a Christian and after teaching the bible for over twenty years, I decided that the main obstacle to overcome in class was the constant confusion by the students. Most had an opinion or belief that had little if anything to do with the Bible. So, I decided to take them back to the beginning. I have always maintained that truth of the Word of God manifests. If one doesn't see results, than it is time to figure out where the errs are in their understanding. From this perspective, I began writing in-depth bible study books for anyone who wants to know the Truth. My writings continued as I added children's books, a novel, fiction, and self-help books for teens and young adults. I believe everyone who likes to read can enjoy one of my many books.

    INTRODUCTION

    September 12, 2011 as I was swimming in my pool around 5 pm, God told me that it is time to tell my story. Everything flooded back into my memory like I was watching a movie. Over the years, I learned one important lesson, when God tells or shows you something, you never forget it. It is as fresh and new as the first time it occurred. You can remember where you were, but the time (day and year) are vague.

    Time lines and dates throughout my story are not exact. I am writing most of this by my recollection of approximate time and events surrounding the stories. I am not asking anyone to believe any part of my stories. I can't prove most of them. All I can tell you is they were and are as real to me as anything that happened to me in a natural sense.

    The purpose of this book is to help others realize just how real God is and can be in the life of anyone who desires a relationship with Him. Everyone can reach a place where they know, have revelation about God and His Kingdom, and can operate with Him in their lives, with prayers answered. The guesswork is over and experiencing a spiritual existence can be an every-day occurrence. Impossible, you say. Then, you have already excluded God out. All things are possible to him that believes.

    * * *

    I was born 1955 into a Catholic home. My father's side of the family was from the old school of Latin, church every Sunday, and a reverence for the Catholic faith. I was schooled by nuns until high school. My complete understanding of God, at that time, was: He was up there and I was down here. Any form of major mess up, I would get the lever pulled or the thunder bolt thrown in my direction. Knowing what I know now, none of that is true.

    The experiences in these stories are a process of spiritual growth. What I knew and understood at one point, changed over time until I knew Truth of God and His Kingdom. I went from information to revelation; and from revelation to manifestation.

    One must realize that you are born into this world a spirit, in a natural body, with a will. Understanding that, for me, didn't begin until after 1984. Almost immediately, once born again, I began to know Truth of God and His Kingdom. So, for anyone to have an experience with their spirit nature, in reality, isn't abnormal. In fact, it should be normal. The development of your spirit as a mature being will never occur, however, until you do become born again. You cannot know the things of God, without knowing God\Creator on an intimate level and you need to know His will and way of saying and doing. Sadly, many don't know God's will on practically every aspect of life, living. I hope this book changes that perspective.

    My spiritual experiences began when I was very young. I believe I was about five. I remember it was a Sunday and my parents had left us three children alone as they went off to the seven o'clock service, mass. In those days, it wasn't unusual for parents to leave their young children alone in the home, especially if they were asleep. I slept on the top bunk. While they were gone, I woke up and looked over the side of my bed. Out from under my brother's bed, a ghostly figure held up an envelope and told me to take it. I was so scared. Just about then, my parents came in and checked on us. The ghost-like figure vanished, but I never forgot it. Over the years, I have often wondered what was in that envelop.

    As a Catholic girl, I had a real reverence for the church and all the belongings: statues, rosary, medallions, etc. I always believed I would be a nun. It never happened. In our family, my father's sister, Mary, worked as a helper, cook, in other words, she took care of the household and church for Monsignor Krispensky. He wasn't a blood relative, but he was family. Mary stayed and worked for him, until he died, October 1999, age 99. So, I was brought up in an atmosphere that revolved around the Catholic Church.

    Mary and Monsignor took me to a home that, today, is a shrine to a lady who had a spiritual encounter with the Blessed Virgin, Mary. When I went into the bedroom (where most the occurrences happened), I felt hands wrap around my forearms and say, It's all going to be alright.

    Around 1971 (I was sixteen), I began to have severe pain in my shoulder and hands. The doctor said I was under a lot of stress, which was causing the problems. Once I graduated high school, I went to live with my Uncle and his family. Being a doctor, he told me that he would run some tests to get to the bottom of what was causing the pain. Weeks later, he told me, You have an incurable disease, Rheumatoid (RA). You will, one day, be a cripple.

    Well, at eighteen, that didn't sound great. However, I felt fine, so I gave it no more thought. It wasn't until I was around twenty one that the disease kicked in and took a turn for the worse. Within ten years, I was a cripple. The doctors said I had a body of a ninety year-old woman. Every inch of my body was in severe pain; most of it I couldn't move, or use (more, later). I was only twenty eight.

    My next experience with spiritual reality: In 1973, I married Bob. He wasn't particular religious by any means. In our first apartment in Delaware, Ohio, I was enjoying my first experience of buying anything I wanted. I bought a book series on the Occult. I was no different than most. I was curious about the other side; nothing more and nothing less. When the first book arrived, I was so excited to get it that I began opening the package as I climbed the stairs to our second floor apartment. When I got inside, I opened the book. Almost immediately, a strange presence seemed to come out of the book. It frightened me so much that I took the book, put it in the kitchen-steel sink, and burned it. Soon after burning the book, I became tired and laid down on the couch in the living room. As I drifted off to sleep, I had a serious seizure, one after the other. I couldn’t speak, my body went rigid, I had lock jaw, and it felt like electricity was shooting from my brain, down the spinal column, and throughout my body. Once it ended, I was exhausted and fell back to sleep. When I awoke, the sensation lingered. From that time on, for close to ten years, I had these seizures. Doctors did tests often, but the results always came back that nothing was wrong with me. None of it was attributed to the RA.

    About five years into this, I was always afraid to go to sleep. I feared the seizures, because they were a frightening experience.

    My next spiritual experience: I worked at an eye glass business as an
