I am really trying not to post so often, but here I go again!

Here's how I see your place in Heavenletters, Elizabeth.

You are our translator who translates Heavenletters into Russian for us. We are so grateful.

How you happened to appear -- we can only speculate. You came to Heavenletters, and you offered to translate. And you have been translating many Heavenletters a week.

You are the only Russian translator we have.

That you read Heavenletters, we're grateful. That you translate, we're grateful. That we are grateful is how it should be. You are a blessing to Heavenletters.

We have only a handful of subscribers from the countries you mentioned where Russian is spoken. Very few. It's safe to say there are many more people who would like to read Heavenletters in Russian if only they knew about Heavenletters.

How do we get Heavenletters known in the Russian community? The best thing I can think of is that you make a search on Google -- something like Russian Language Groups, or Russian Language Newsletters, or Russian Language Websites, or Russian Spiritual Groups. Is there a Russian Facebook or other such forum groups? I don't know. You are the only person I know who can do this, beloved Elizabeth. I can't do it. I don't know Russian.

Then once you find sites where you can post, it would be great if you would start posting from yourself. If it fits in the groups guidelines that you can post Heavenletters, then post your translations.

Of course, you are not obliged to do anything. . We are all free to do or not do as we like. And you are free, and we're going to love you whatever you do or don't do.

At the same time you can make a huge difference for Russian-speaking people that no one else at present can. You can make Heavenletters well-known. Who is going to do it if not you?

I feel like you and I are very much alike, angel. We find ourselves where we are before we even had any idea where we would be. God has stretched me through Heavenletters, and He asks a lot of me. He has changed my life. It isn't my life any longer. I never wanted responsibility, yet now it has fallen to me. There is a saying -- I believe it's from Shakespeare -- where it says something about greatness being thrust upon us. I don't know about greatness being thrust on us, yet responsibility seems to have been assigned to us.

It seems to me that our lives are no longer about doing what we want to do or what is comfortable for us to do. We are presented with things to do whether we can picture ourselves doing them or not. If we are going to reach Russian-speaking people, it can only be through you.

Am I making any sense?

Now I will write to the handful of subscribers we have from Russian countries. I will tell them about your translations. I will tell them where to find your posted Heavenletters. I will suggest that they sign up for your translations.

And then we'll find a way to email your translations to them.

How many Russian-speaking people can we introduce Heavenletters to? What is the fastest way for us to do this? It is up to them whether they want to read Heavenletters or not. Yet is it up to us to introduce them to Heavenletters. Who is going to do it unless we do?

With love and blessings,

Gloria
