This edition of my email newsletter is the first since issue #8 of last September. Thank you for your patience during these months as I've taken time off to heal from my experiences in Texas.

Dearest Friends:

Thank you for sacrificing your time, money and effort in gifting those you love or care about with Embraced By The Light! Most people write that a relative or friend had gifted them. Some tell of receiving Embraced from a stranger sitting next to them on an airplane - one while on a bus. Many grieving wrote that Embraced came just after the loss of a loved one. And it is especially breath taking to hear from those who wrote that in their darkest hours, many just after prayer, that Embraced just "seemed" to come as an answer to prayer. One person wrote she just found it at her front door, and chose to believe it was "A miracle from God." Another found it on the front seat of her car! Others have written, "Embraced just came in the mail without a return address - without comment - just there when I needed it the most! How could anyone know that but God?" People leaving the books chose to remain anonymous.

Well, God does know and he uses what already exists to answer prayers. He uses you and me and all who will serve him to do the work that needs be done. These opportunities bless us in measurable ways on Earth; but in Heaven the blessings cannot be measured, they are endless. The ripple effect of kindness ripples on for generations to come. When in Heaven looking back on your deeds, you would rather have spent your entire life in service to others, than to have gained anything for yourself. Having said this, I know that Heaven and all its glory and what it means to us is not fathomable to our mortal minds! If written, a book alone about how Embraced By The Light came into peoplešs lives would fascinate you! These "Ripples" are of the purest kind, because they are gifts of sacrificial love from people like you.

Your prayers for those suffering are expressions of selflessness, too. Requests made to God for healing are far reaching, and just as a tweak in a matrix, the energy from one single prayer for someone has the power to make a difference around the world.

It is my hope to continue reaching people still: people I cannot reach without your help. I thank you who have contacted my office with your request that we keep Embraced By The Light on sale. It is done! Also, Gifts of Embraced will continue to be sent to hospitals and to special organizations willing to give them free. Again, I thank those of you with helping hands in this as well.

We can live in hope and serenity when we know that God guides our way. Though disaster and loss fall upon us, we know God is in control, and that all tragedy great or small can create pivotal points in our lives. As we live through anguish and conquer our fears, these springboard us to higher spiritual growth—growth which cannot be obtained in any other way. Pain creates empathy, an emotion we need in order to fully comprehend and understand the pain of others. What we do today in our world sets standards and challenges for the next generations to come. God bless you! Your efforts have empowered souls with Godšs unconditional love, and it strengthens lives to endure to the end.

Please check the web site from time to time. Look for additions as they are added. The Warring Angel area is now up, as is the Prayer Request page. A Native American area will be added soon. Should you have any questions or inspirations Išll be grateful for them; as I am for your interest and desire to better serve God.

Macooa (a piece of my heart),
Betty

Quote
We are to pray for one another's healing
If the faith of our friends is weak, the strength of our spirits can literally hold them up. If they are sick, our prayers of faith can often give them strength to be healed, unless their illness is appointed as a growing experience. If their death seems near, we must always remember to ask for God's will to be done, otherwise we could frustrate the person making their transition by creating in them a conflict of purpose. The range of our help for others is immense. We can do far more good for our families, friends, or others than we ever imagined. (Embraced By The Light, p. 105.)

Scripture Verse
Pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. (James 5:16, KJV)

Prayer

Father, thank you for gifting me with the power to heal and bless my family and friends. Remind me always to pray with those who are in poor health. Bless me to pray fervently by joining them in coming to you for your blessings.

Affirmation
I bless those I love with my greatest gift: the power of my prayer.

(From Embraced By The Light: Prayers & Devotions For Daily Living, entry for July 5.)



FEATURED ARTICLE

BRUSHES WITH DEATH:
Scientists Validate Near-Death Experiences

I am always interested to read what those in the science and medicine fields have to say about near-death experiences. Here is a recent article which I felt was interesting enough to pass on to you.

"Are Near-Death Experiences For Real? When a car plowed into the vehicle in which she was riding, Leslie's chest was crushed, eight bones were broken and her heart stopped beating for three minutes. Before she was revived, she says she glimpsed the afterlife. "My next experience was really lying on the ground outside of the car, and it was actually an out-of-body experience that I had," says Leslie, who declined to give her last name. "I was actually floating above my body, and I looked down, and I saw all these men working on this poor girl who was down below, about eight feet below me, and she was struggling." An estimated 7 million people have reported hauntingly similar "near-death" experiences. And a new study in the British medical journal, Lancet, gives credence to such accounts, concluding they are valid."

NEWS AND UPDATES

Calling all W.A.V.E.S! This is our exciting new effort to spread ripples of God's love into the world, beginning right here with each of us. I invite you to join in this effort by viewing the new W.A.V.E.S pages at my site and in sharing a commitment to make a difference. We already have over 50 members signed up.

The power of prayer is miraculous and wonderful and is strengthened when many join their faith and prayers together. Now I have a new Prayer Request page at my site. The purpose is for those who need prayer support to request it, and for those willing to serve through prayer to do so in behalf of those who need it. Each morning at 7 a.m. Pacific Standard Time, I will open this page and offer prayers for those listed. This is my regular time for my daily devotions during which I read that day's page from Prayers and Devotions for Daily Living and spend time in meditation and prayer. Please join me at that time if you are able and so desire.

In the next edition of "The Onjinjinkta Newsletter", is a message written to me from Miriam Horrocks, the wife of Michael Robert Horrocks, pilot of the second plane to strike the World Trade Center. Miriam has been sought out by media to share what she so willingly shares with us, but is reluctant to share with them. "The Onjinjinkta Newsletter" is our regular mail newsletter which goes out four times a year. The subscription price is $10 per year. Learn more and subscribe online or call 800 433-8978.

Watch for the movie "Dragonfly" starring Kevin Costner. Since the movie delves into the near-death and afterlife experiences, I was contacted by Universal Studios to endorse it and help in its publicity. After previewing the movie, I found that I could endorse it because "Dragonfly" handles near-death in a more realistic manner than other movies so far. It also explores what I know to be possible after death. To over dramatize is natural to making movies, so you will find some of that here, otherwise, I recommend the movie for not only entertainment, but for its educational qualities as well. I recently traveled to NYC to be interviewed by the media about this film. There, I met Mr. Costner and was impressed by his kindness and sincerity.

Embraced continues on sale! Embraced By The Light continues on sale for only $5 a book. This is the hardback edition and is so perfect for sharing with friends and loved ones—not only when death or tragedy strikes, but whenever they are seeking greater meaning to their lives.

~*~Regular Features:

Heavenly Encounters "About 5 years ago, when I was much closer to God than I am now, I would literally fall asleep praying and talking with God. One particular night, I was lying in bed just praying and listening, trying to tune into to what God was saying to me. (He always has something to say and wants to communicate with us). Before I knew it, having been so deep in prayer or communion with Him, I instantly found myself in another place.... " (continued...)

God's Tiny Miracles In the face of the unknown, a young man learns God's constancy. Also, one young woman survives a drive-by shooting when the bullet miraculously disappears.



I thank you for your continued support and love!
