The prologue explains why I am sharing this story given to me in visions from God. To be perfectly honest I had no desire to share this story because I believed a very miniscule amount of people would be blessed to receive the story. I think every day to bless, elevate and enlighten the people of this world. Some information can be healing and some if given to the unprepared can be hurting. I must trust that those people who need this story will find it with grace and ease. And those who are not ready to receive will be guided, taught & prepared to receive. I love you all, as only a Mother can love you.
