JOAN

QUES.

1.       WHEN YOU GIVE A TALK, DO PEOPLE ASK YOU HOW TO CONTACT THEIR ANGELS, WHAT DO YOU TELL THEM?

I THINK ASKING FROM THE HEART IS IMPORTANT, SINCERITY, AND OUR ANGELS CAN TELL WHEN WE ARE SINCERE.

2.   ONE THING I HAVE ENCOUNTERED ARE DESPERATE PEOPLE.

THEY MAY BE DESPERATE DUE TO JOB LOSS

A DEATH IN THE FAMILY

A BREAK UP IN A RELATIONSHIP OR A DIVORCE

THERE IS A SENSE OF URGENCY FOR THINGS TO BE BETTER INSTANTLY. BUT HEALING TAKES TIME

I THINK ONE THING IS THAT PEOPLE MUST REALIZE TIME IS DIFFERENT IN HEAVEN, OR IN THE SPIRIT WORLD.

WHAT MAY SEEM LIKE AN ETERNITY TO US, HERE ON EARTH, FOR THINGS TO IMPROVE, IN HEAVEN, OR COMPARED TO ETERNITY, THAT AMOUNT OF TIME, FOR THE HEALING TO TAKE HOLD, IS JUST A DROP IN THE BUCKET. OR A DROP IN THE OCEAN.

3.   .ANOTHER POINT IS THAT PEOPLE BECOME TOO EAILY DISCOURAGED AND GIVE UP PRAYING TOO SOON.

GIVE US SOME EXAMPLES OF YOUR FAVORITE STORIES FROM YOUR BOOK, JOAN.

MOTHERS PRAYERS.

I HAVE HEARD THIS OFTEN, THAT A MOTHERS PRAYERS HAVE A PRIORITY GETTING ANSWERED QUICKLY.

MY MOTHER - ALWAYS RECEIVED A ROSE AND HER PRAYERS WOULD BE ANSWERED.

LILLIES BLOOMING IN OUR YARD IN LATE OCTOBER.

I PRAYED FOR SOMETHING IN JANUARY 1995 I HAD JUST RETURNED TO TORONTO FROM MANHATTAN, AND IT WAS WORK RELATED. I HAD A ROSE BUSH IN MY BACKYARD AND ONE PINK ROSE BLOOMED IN MID JANUARY. THE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 20F.
