I hate feeling unsettled. One minute I am up and ready to take on the world and the next, there are things bubbling up and I’m screaming about nothing. It’s a precarious time for almost all of us right now, especially in the USA where we are feeling an upheaval in our country with the upcoming election. It’s insane the amount of bickering and fighting going on. People who have been friends for years have parted ways because they do not agree on who should be President. The two candidates we have behave in deplorable ways. It’s a scary time for all of us, but for those of us who are ultra sensitive, it can be hard to get out of bed each day.
My husband and I cook for a church each Wednesday, a task I normally love and look forward to. This morning, I’m reaching for the strength to do it and to do it with a smile. I feel sad inside for a number of reasons. I have to keep repeating to myself, “This too shall pass.” I know it will. It always does.
There IS hope. We don’t HAVE to feel the effects of fear. For some, this is easier said than done, but it’s a matter of choice. I personally have no idea what is about to happen with the Government but I do know one thing…it’s up to me (and you too) to be diligent about praying for the people of our Nation and to ask God that our leaders begin to strip down to the heart for the good of this Country of ours. The time for greed is over. We’ve been seeing for some time now what greed is capable of doing and has done. I want no part of it.
I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting on my past walk with the Blessed Mother and today I went through my books trying to find the ones that helped me best to strengthen my faith. I ran across a meditation book called, “Medjugorje Day By Day” (by: Richard J. Beyer), and opened it to October 26. This is what is says at the top. It’s part of one of Mary’s messages to the world as given to the visionaries in Medjugorje back in the eighties.
October 26:
The Blessed Mother Speaks of Grace today:
“Dear Children, pray during this month. God has allowed me to help you every day with graces, in order to protect you from evil. This month is mine. I would like to give it to you. Pray and God will give you the graces that you ask for. I will support your requests.”

During a time in my life when I most needed a hand to hold , Mary was there for me. I am here to tell you She is here now again, and She’ll help anyone who reaches out to Her.
Once upon a time she foretold what is going on in this country right now and I will never forget what She said. She said this country has been given the most and we have the least gratitude [of all countries] for it. She also said “God help the mother’s with young children”. For whatever reason, that one quote has always stuck with me. All She has asked of me or anyone is to return to putting God first in all of our ways. She doesn’t specify what religion because frankly, God is God, no matter what name we choose to use.
At a time in my life when I felt there was no human on earth in whom I could place my trust, I took a deep breath and made a promise to hold Her hand and go where She would lead me. She led me to a deep faith and belief that through God, ALL things are possible. She specified that there IS still time to change our ways and that through the prayers of many, a lot of terrible things have been averted. They still are and still can.
So I ask you all to join with me in praying for one another, not just America, but for all people of all Nations. Pray that God sends an army of Angels to seep into the hearts of those who supposedly lead and want to lead this country and that whomever ends up being the decision maker(s) begins to lead with his/her heart for the good of all. The fact is that none of us truly know, we only have opinions on who is supposed to be in charge.
WE ARE ONE. It’s time to take the one true stand we can all take. Begin and end your days on your knees in prayer. Ask that God take the lead and show us all the right way. Ask that God’s will be done, not ours.
It doesn’t fail. I can promise you this.
My love to all of you!
From The Angels:
Answered Prayer: Fear not, beloved one! Your prayers have been heard and answered.
All of your prayers are always answered. Sometimes you may not feel this way, because the answer comes in unexpected ways. Perhaps you receive an intuitive feeling or a new opportunity appears-or a book falls off the shelf. The angels answer our prayers very often by giving us ideas or information in these everyday ways.
By drawing this card, the angels request that you be extra observant. Notice everything that you hear, say, think, and feel. Be especially alert to help that comes to you, and be sure to accept that help. You do deserve this assistance, and many times God enlists people to act as Earth angels who bring you answers to your prayers.
Harmony: Conflict is resolved in a situation that was troubling you. Know that you deserve this peace and happiness, and accept it graciously.
Beloved child of God, you are a peace-lover at heart. This card comes to you as a sign of new harmony that dawns upon you. Let go of viewing the situation as troubled, and see yourself and others through the eyes of your guardian angels. In this way, you’ll look past the surface and see the beauty and light that eternally shines within everyone.
By shifting your viewpoint to the angelic perspective, you become an Earth angel. Holding an elevated viewpoint sparks miraculous healing in all of your relationships. Conflict drops away, revealing the clean and new truth about everyone and everything.
Study: Don’t let the pressures of life push those dreams down. Stir up those dreams. Shake off every disappointment and press forward. This is a new day. Get a new vision. Make up your mind that no matter what comes your way, you are going to keep pressing forward. This is an important time for you to learn new ideas or skills.
You are going to keep growing. You are going to keep learning. You are going to stay active. If you will stay passionate about life, knowing what your purpose is and being your best every day, God will pour out His blessings to you. Perhaps you feel guided to enroll in a class and this card confirms that feeling.
Make the choice to keep your dreams in front of you. Remember, you have a purpose. You have a destiny. You were created to make a difference to impact our society to make this world a better place. You are being guided to enroll in class, continue your education.
