SEPTEMBER 2011
Hello Readers.,
Hi, once again., WELCOME FOR ANOTHER READ ! It is SPRING here now.,, daffodils., sunshine, and yes I admit it, changeable weather but with the flowers and blossoms about its a lovely feeling, and I can shed a coat for a lighter jumper etc. I hope your Part of the world is faring OK., The storms in America were very nasty, one called Irene causing trouble wherever it hit.,, Mount Etna is also very active these days and creating quite a show of activity, we have long been alerted to the changes in the world around this time, the years leading up to 2012 and so far I have no reason to doubt that the forecasts have been accurate.. Lets just face each day at a time and do what we can for those that suffer the natural effects that seem to be taking place.., prayers and practical help is always welcome and we are pretty good at that aren't we?
This month we saw the United States of America recognise the passing of ten years since the awful 9-11 tragic “twin Towers” deaths of so many innocent people. The ceremony's were very moving, this area is now a memorial to those who lost their lives and I am sure they would approve of this way of remembering them.. I think we all remember exactly what we were doing that day and will always feel the horror and sadness of the event.
JESUS LOVES ME THIS I KNOW ( FOR SENIORS)
Forgive me you younger folk but the popular hymn in any Christian church was always aimed at children., it went like this
“Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to him belong
We are weak but he is strong..
Yes Jesus loves me, The Bible tells me so.,
But as a minister found that it was always the adults who chose this hymn and sang the loudest so he wrote a senior’s version for the older congregation.
Jesus loves me, this I know,
though my hair is white as snow
Though my sight is growing dim
Still he bids me trust in him
CHORUS NEXT
Though my steps are oh, so slow
With my hand in his I’ll go
On through life let come what may
He’ll be there to lead the way
CHORUS
When the nights are dark and long
In my heart he puts a song
Telling me in words so clear
Have no fear, for I am near
CHORUS
When my work on earth is done’
and life’s victories have been won
He’ll take me home ABOVE
Then I’ll understand his love.
CHORUS.
I HOPE YOU REMEMBER THE HYMN AND ENJOY THIS VERSION.
LOVE FOR ALL
We must be silent before we can listen
We must listen before we can learn
We must learn before we can prepare
We must prepare before we can serve
We must serve before we can lead
THE AURA-CONTINUED
Colours in the aura present different combination and to understand them is a further step to understanding yourself. Psychics and mediums are likely to know intuitively the meaning of the various colour combinations and knowing the basic colours will give them a key to interpreting the various combinations., today we look at the combination of yellow-green and orange.
This combination could indicate that the person has made a conscious decision (engaging their intellect, therefore yellow) to make certain changes for health reasons. For example, they may have chosen to follow a healthier diet and seek more exercise. This action could be allowing the body to self-heal from a number of small ailments., healing, therefore green and the inspiration may have a feeling of changes in their body- motivation, therefore orange.
This is only a likely guide to help you, your medium will of course interpret as they see it.,
HOLD ON
A PUEBLO INDIAN PRAYER
Hold on to what is good
Even if it’s a handful of earth
Hold on to what you believe
Even if its a tree that stands by itself
Hold on to what you must do
Even if it’s a long way from here
Hold on to your life
Even if it’s easier to let it go
Hold on to my hand
Even if someday I’ll be gone away from you
Time out for a laugh.
A Minister parked his car in a no-parking zone in a large city because he was short of time and couldn’t find space with a meter. Then he put a note under the windshield wiper that read “ I have circled the block 10 times. If I don’t park here I’ll miss my appointment. Forgive us our trespasses
When he returned , he found a citation from a police officer along with this note “I.ve circled this block for ten years. If I don’t give you a ticket I’ll lose my job Lead us not into temptation”

MANY FAITHS ----ONE PEOPLE
This month we look at CHRISTIANITY
Because of the changes and divisions over the centuries there now exist several Christian groups. These churches today are moving towards friendly relationships and form some forms of unity. Christians comprise about 33% of the population of the world
There are four major families of the Christian church
Catholic
Orthodox
Protestant
Charismatic
What do Christians believe ? ..........In One God
Jesus Christ.........The Spirit
That Jesus gave his life for the love of them
That his rising to a new life is the promise of their resurrection
That he came to restore the right relationship between God and humanity, and between all people
For God so loved the world that He gave his only Son, so that everyone who believe in him may not perish, but may have eternal life.
THE AFTER LIFE !
It was Jesus who advised that we focus on the here and now and not concern ourselves with what comes next., !!! but we are all of a curious nature and do wonder about these things and over a long period of time many descriptions have been forthcoming, but when you add the things we have been told together we see that there is little difference between the ancient and early writing, including the Tibetan book of the Dead and the modern writers of this day This shows us we can have confidence in their conclusions. Along with the reports of those who come back from a near death experience we can be assured of an experience of travelling down a tunnel and of being met by a Clear White, Bright light., !, it is Said that you are at that time in the presence of “creative Centre of all things” you are with the Divine presence of God..
Jesus also says that in his home there are “many mansions” this we interpret as many higher spheres available to us to continue the progress of the spirit, each sphere being suitable for the stage of spiritual development we may have reached. Each one giving us the chance to learn and progress on our spiritual journey. Just as we go to school here and progress to higher classes or grades so too do we have the opportunity to further our development to progress by service to others and by learning, many in spirit are helping other newcomers to settle within this new sphere and to advise and help them to meet others that may have passed before them. Opportunities abound for those wanting to study their favourite interest, be it music, healing, teaching , art, and so it goes on. Do we have reason to fear this ”afterlife” , I think not !!!
Without a vocal voice we can expect to communicate by “thought” and will need to learn to do this as early as we can., this form of communication is how Spirit communicate with us so often so we should not be surprised by this at all. We can also expect that we ALL live in full consciousness and recognise one another , in other words yes ! you will meet up with those you love who may already have passed in spirit.
Many of the habits and likings we may have upon the earth plane, those like smoking, the drinking beer, wine etc and yes even sex., can be experienced but it is soon felt that the same satisfaction is not felt and they stop the craving or wish to continue with them.
The feeling of heat or cold is not the same as on earth, this may be because he has not got the same body that sensed the heat, yet he may sense a little cold or warmth when coming close to a medium, especially when he may work closely with one as in a public appearance.

BOOK REVIEW
THE HEALING ZONE
BY Jude Berman & Alan Crisp.
This is an interesting, easy to read book aimed at practical techniques for dealing with anger, grief and fear., it is not a “how to” book in the sense you may expect but shows you the lives of the healer medium- Jean Vazirir and of about 5 of her patients., it gives you practical insight into their lives and how they went about changing them for the better.
You can learn from their examples and put them into practice to help you with your problems., negatives habits etc. It’s worth a “read”
RICH OR POOR-YOUNG OR OLD
I FOUND THIS LITTLE PIECE IN THE Friendship Book it reminds us that no matter who we are we each have the ability to make or shape our life., we can build a bright future or fritter away our opportunities doing little towards our growth and learning.
Isn’t it strange that Princes and Kings
And clowns that caper in circle rings
And common folk like you and me
Are builders of eternity
To each is given a bag of tool
A shapeless mass and a book of rules
And each must make e’er time be flown
A stumbling block or a stepping stone.
Dr. Cyril Towlson.
THE GIVING OF FLOWERS
The flowers of life represent;-
The blossoms are the beauty that come to us during life.’
That is why people give flowers to each other. Flowers have various stages to go through before blooming and fading away. Some are cut back before their normal ending.
Flowers bring us upliftment, joy, they brighten our life with their wonderful colours and perfume. When we give flowers we give LOVE.
COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS.
This advice is old but never the less true. It not always easy to remember to do this when you are overwhelmed with worries or grief, yet gratitude and thanksgiving for life itself, the world in which we live, the many blessings we enjoy are an essential part of real happiness. Only fools are tormented by regrets and what might have been. Every day filled with regrets about the past is a day taken out of life NOW., Look within and see the wonderful blessings we have, each and every one of us is blessed by the life we have and the opportunities we have each day.
HOW ARE YOU SPENDING YOUR DASH
We all attend a funeral from time to time and listen to the speaker tell of the life of the departed, it tells of achievements, struggles and such that they had experienced during their life with us., and at one I attended a speaker spoke of the “Dash”, that time between the date of birth and the date of the passing back into Spirit.,1919-1997 from the beginning of the life until the end of it, he spoke of the value of that time between the two events for he said this mattered most of all. For it represented all the time that the person had spent on earth.....and now only those who loved him/her know what that little line is worth.
For it matters not, how much we own, the cars,...the house....the cash, , what matters is how we live and love and how we spend our “dash” So think about this long and hard...... are there things you’d like to change? For you never know how much time is left, that can still be rearranged.
If we could just slow down a enough to consider what’s true and real, and always try o understand the way other people feel. And be less quick to anger, and show the people in our lives like we’ve never loved before. If we treat each other with respect and more often wear a smile.....remembering that this special dash might only last a little while. So when your eulogy’s being read, with your life’s actions to rehash....would you be proud of the things they say about how you spent your “dash”
GOOD ADVICE
1. Prayer is not a “Spare Wheel” that you pull out hen in trouble, but is a “Steering Wheel” that directs the right path throughout.
2. Do you know why a car’s windshield is so large and the rearview mirror is so small? Because our PAST is not as important as your FUTURE. Look ahead and MOVE on.
3. Friendship is like a BOOK It takes years to write but few seconds to burn.
4. All things in life are TEMPORARY >If going well, enjoy it,, they will not last forever. If going wrong, don’t worry, they can’t last long either
5. Old friends are GOLD ! New friends are DIAMONDS ! If you get a Diamond don’t forget the Gold ! Because to hold a Diamond, you always need a Base of Gold !..
6. In each of these sayings there is something to ponder on. !
Its been a difficult month, I have been without the computer for a week or two and so ask you to come back again next month for another read., love and blessing to all who are not well., and to those who need cheering up.
