My mother has an extended family with almost a hundred descendants now. She can't even remember all their names. But she had taken a special shine to this son of my best friend. I called her on the phone and told her what had happened. After about twenty seconds of silence I heard the phone hang up. I knew she was terribly upset. I left her alone in her grief for a while. About an hour later she called me on the phone after having sobbed to God over this tragedy. She told me that there was a miracle in this tragedy that we might not know for a long time. I told those who gathered at the crowded funeral about what my mother had said. The tears were knee deep. However, there was also a spark of hope that floated through the crowd like a mist.

Rosa and I have been concerned for some time about her job. In the last six months there have been three people killed just outside the doors of her store. She finally left her job a couple of weeks ago when it became clear that her employer and the neighboring stores weren't going to do something about it. After we returned from Mexico she began to apply for a new job. Normally she would find work very quickly because of her education and her references. There isn.t an employer in her past that wouldn't pay good money to have her return. However, she became discouraged this last week when she couldn.t find something suitable. She was thinking about taking the enormous pay increase and returning to her old job. That night I had a dream where I was told that the angels would walk before her and prepare for her something special. When we got up I told her we needed to clean ourselves up in order to present ourselves to God. We got on our knees and I prayed that God would release his angels to walk before Rosa so that she could find the right Job. All day long I kept calling her on the phone while she was applying at the local factories. By noon she had found a great job. She starts next week. Some would say this is a coincidence. It is not. This is part of what happens to people everyday when they prepare themselves for a relationship with God. It will never hit the newspapers because it is all too common of a story. I have grown to listen to the voice of God in my life and in my dreams, now that I am an old man. I have learned that there is a price to pay along the way as well.

John and I have paid the price to be partners. It has taken faith in each other. There still isn't a written contract between us. He told me this week that he had prayed two years before I moved here that he would be given something spiritually important to do in his work, rather than merely being a great sound man for the stars. He said I was the answer to his prayers. I told him I was the curse in his life because it has taken so long and we have had so many set backs. He reminded me that we both needed to pay the price before God would allow us to do what we were going to do. We certainly have paid that price. Though we are still struggling and hanging on by our finger nails, we have a project quickly lining up which will change everything for both of us. Take the classes and feel the spirit of the ancient texts and history of the world. It is the story of God's dealings with men. It can't be told by those who don't believe because they don't understand. The classes will help you understand that God played a role in everything that has happened and that a great deal more has gone on behind the scenes that never made the newspapers or scriptures. If you need help then call me on the phone as of Monday and I will help you personally. The classes are on the way as of tonight for those of you who are taking the hard CD's. Those of you who want to download the classes, they will be on the site as of Monday. This will be the best of the classes so far.
