Gloria to God:

Dear God, well, still no questions from other Heavenreaders for You. And I don't know what I have to ask this morning. What would You like to tell us, dear God?

God:

Bring up a subject. You are not without something on your mind.

Gloria:

I have been sort of feeling desolate. I would call it vague desolation. I feel like I am just waiting for something.

God:

What are you waiting for?

Gloria:

Something to happen. I am always waiting for something to happen.

God:

Today send out your letter to agencies that deal with prison rehabilitation. Or find prisons to send your letter to. Send out your letter. You keep waiting for permission.

Gloria:

Here's the letter, the final draft I have so far:

Dear Sirs:

Heaven Ministry wants to reach people in prisons, and we are not certain how to begin, so we are writing to you.

What we offer is an emailed newsletter, Heavenletters. Heavenletters has reunited its readers to God's love and their own sense of self-worth. With this change in perception has come greater understanding, more harmonious interaction with others, and a generally more satisfying life.

What seems to make Heavenletters unique is that it is interactive. Readers can send in their own deep most personal questions, and all readers benefit from the questions and the answers. There is no preaching in Heavenletters.

To date, Heaven Ministry has worked solely with individuals through word of mouth. Now we want to do our part in moving the awareness of God's grace into institutions.

We want to make Heavenletters available to all who need it, and we especially want to offer it to souls locked in prisons.

Would you consider pointing us in the right direction? We would be grateful for any guidance you can give us.

If you would like to see samples of Heavenletters, we would be delighted to send you some.

Wishing you every success in all you are doing.

Many blessings,
Gloria Wendroff
(on behalf of Heaven Ministry)

P.S. Heaven Ministry is God-directed, spiritual and practical. It is not an organized religion or church and requires no belief system or affiliation. Readers of Heavenletters are simply readers. Nothing more is asked of them.

God:

Once the letter was written, it was sent, do you understand? The love of the letter was sent.

Now you confirm it by sending in out on the surface plane.

See where it lands.

One reason why you tend to wait for permission for an action is your fear of rejection. Overcome that. Send out the emails, and forget about them. You can forget to do things, can't you? Now forget about hearing back. You are sending these letters out for Me. Consider that you send them to Me. Consider each letter you send as a thank-You to Me. And you will know that each letter is received and valued.

You are on the sidelines because you fear going on stage.

You are as afraid of positive response as much as you are to rejection.

Dive in, Gloria. Swim in the water. I will surely hold you up.

Being on the edge feels desolate.

Join in, and desolation will go off on its own. It will go its own way. You will go yours.

Gloria:

How can I feel desolate when You are here?

God:

Only fear makes you feel desolate. Does desolate mean alone?

Gloria:

I think so.

God:

Perhaps you think I am not enough?

Gloria:

I know You are, but I guess I haven't quite surrendered to that. Or, I want more of You, dear God. More of my recognition of You.

God:

When you are thinking of being without, it is hard to think of being with. So stop thinking. Just be with Me. Go along with Me. Insert yourself into My presence. Be more assertive. Don't just go with your thoughts. Turn your thoughts to Me. Turn your thoughts.

Accede to Me.

I am God Almighty. You cannot be alone, because I would not have it so. Pay attention to My love and not your vagrant thoughts. Welcome My love, and treat it as a valued guest. Make preparation for My visit. I have never left, and I will never leave. Waiting is separating yourself from Me, dear one. Accept being One with Me. Wait no longer.

Sandra to Heavenletters:

Dear Gloria, please do not be disheartened when you do not receive questions for Heavenletters. I have never been disappointed in any exchange you have had with God. Also, many times I have formulated a question in my mind, but before I get to it, I have received an answer in some way. I think God leads the way to the questions when the time is right.

Gloria to Sandra:

Thanks, Sandra!

God to Sandra:

That is common, for a question to be answered after it is asked. Then ask your question in Heavenletters for the aggregate good of the readers. Remember that the questions themselves serve a grand purpose. Offer your questions to Me in Heavenletters, even when your personal heart has been answered. Yes, I lead the way to the questions.

Gloria to Heavenreaders:

While comments from Heavenreaders are published as soon as they arrive, Heavenletters themselves are being written more than a month ahead and reach you a month or so after the answer first came. And yet how responsive this one is to what is going on the day of its publication!
