About the Book

“I pray Heavenly Father that you open all whom You have chosen to receive and understand the Truths You have imparted through me by the Holy Spirit that their minds may be freed and understanding may fi nd a new dwelling place. Let all who so much as read the title of this book from a distance be touched by Your Holy Presence. Bless all those who contributed to the completion of this, Your work Father in the Name of Jesus and give them the assured Peace and calmness of mind and spirit until such time that you call us home in Christ Jesus. I thank You Father for Your support and strength during the times when exhaustion tried to fi nd its home in me but You closed the door, and when spirits of negativity tried to cause me to fear and You seized the opportunity and used the incident to teach me even more. I thank You Father God in the Name of Jesus for the encouragement I received from my dearly beloved sister in Christ, the late Inez Igelsrud and from my pastor and friend Rev. Pauline T. Mercadel and so many others who had words of encouragement along the way. I also give thanks to my daughter Tamara who put up with me through all the changes I had to experience to write this book in Truth. And Father I want to give a very special thanks to Jesus for making all this possible by His Supreme Sacrifi ce to keep the Way home to You open and for the Precious gift of the Holy Spirit without Whom this Work would not be.
