It was 1993 when I was embraced by God, or as I came to know it, the Ultimate Being. I was not expecting it and, when it happened, it changed my life for the better. Over a period of approximately a year, I left my body at night (and sometimes during the day) and moved toward this Being of Light that I saw in the distance. I could not move very fast toward it, as I knew that I had to take it slowly or else the experience would affect my physical body. I was not afraid, but neither did it take away the lessons I was destined to learn with Maitreya whom I had just connected with in 1992. I finally got close to the energy, and it was then that it embraced me totally and I felt such love. I have never felt so much love from anything in my life. It told me that, once I had learned my lessons, it and I would work together. I did not realize at the time that I had a mammoth task in front of me in changing my outlook, facing my fears (which at the time were absolutely terrifying), and letting go of so many old and outdated beliefs. That was 18 years ago.
As I write this in 2011, I know that the time has come to do what I came to do, to work in helping humanity shift its consciousness. I could not have done it even last year. I was not ready. I am totally at peace within myself now; all the fear, doubt, insecurity and old beliefs are gone. I follow what I am told by this energy, and it has never let me down in the 18 years as it led and guided me through Maitreya, my teacher. As I do my work and see the effect my readings have on people, I know that I am working with this energy. It is so beautiful to be able to do what I do, and I am in awe of even my own work. That energy is non-judgmental and true compassion, it knows our soul better than we do and, if we want to, it can help us to become all we can be and more. I am very blessed.
