Further Response to Last Blog Entry

Jack’s comment on yesterday’s blog entry, Why I am sure Godwriting™ is not channeling, made me think of so many things, that I practically wrote a book in response!

Charles also wrote a well-thought-out impassioned response to that entry. In the interests of space, I thought I’d better make my response a whole new blog entry.  Many thanks, dear Charles.

First, here are a few highlights from Charles’ incredible response, and then I’ll put in my two cents’ worth:

Unlike Jack, I don’t agree that your blog can’t be challenged. Not that I often find things in it I disagree with, but it is simply in a different order than Heavenletters.

At the same time I believe it would be a mistake to blindly follow every word that shows up in a Heavenletter. If nothing else, the occasional typo demonstrates that imperfection is part of human experience in our relative world.

My trust that you record the messages as exactly as you possibly can is of extreme importance to me in this. If I thought that you were “improving” what is given to you in the way that you probably revise a blog entry before posting it, well, let’s just say that I can’t fit that in my head.

Indeed, there is quite a difference between Heavenletters (Divine) and the blog (human) – the Source and source for one thing!

In regard to Heavenletters, God says, "Ask your heart." He says to take what feels right to us and leave the rest. He doesn’t obligate us to accept everything He says – or anything! I love that God doesn’t boss us around too much. He really really does give us free will.

Of course, for me, I always think God is right! I personally don’t question. I love that He helps me to think a new way. (As Dr. Phil would say: “Has what you’ve been doing working so well for you?”)

But that’s me – I tend to believe anything anyone says anyway!

As for the blog, which is definitely a different order, it’s not even worthy of being challenged! Often I think of this blogwriter as a sort of spiritual Erma Bombeck!  – what’s there to challenge?!

With that being said, challenge away! I love a good controversy.

As for typos and other such errors in Heavenletters, mea culpa.

In today’s Heavenletter #2731 From Now On, I see I use the spelling sights. In another recent Heavenletter, I believe I used the spelling sites for the same meaning. I don’t know if I’ll ever get the right spelling -- which is it when you set your sites? Sites or sights?

Yet what can God do but rely on me for such things?

A  respected chiropractor once muscle-tested God’s personal answer through Heavenletters to his personal question. This chiropractor found that I filtered the meaning of God’s response with 98% accuracy.  I would say that’s quite good. Of course, that was only one's man appraisal.

Oh, yes, I record what I so subtly hear God say as exactly as I can. At the same time,

Godwriting isn’t a science.

As I Godwrite, once in a while, I may write down a word and feel that it isn’t right, cross it out, and put down another word that does feel right. This is not from my intellect. It’s from another level. it's like I can leave the word, or I can’t.

After a Heavenletter is written, right then and/or later, I read it over. I mean to catch typos, and sometimes I do. If an antecedent isn’t clear, I take out the pronoun and repeat the noun. I might make one very long sentence into two. My motivation is clarity. Things like that do come from my intellect.

Apart from things like the babove,  God’s words have a certain rhythm, and that rhythm has to be kept.

I do want to tell you that the Heavenletters I read on the Heaven CD have had lines removed. I will tell you why.  When I would read Heavenletters out loud at readings, I discovered that people can only listen for so long. Even the most devoted Heavenreaders – their attention would drift off. So in reading Heavenletters out loud live or for a CD, I do remove lines. My feeling is it’s better to have people really listen to most of what a Heavenletter says than lose interest in hearing all of it.

In the book, I also removed some lines. In that case, it was to make the Heavenletter fit on two pages when possible. You will see it wasn’t always possible.

I can’t say that God told me to do this, but I can say that it seemed to be all right with Him.

One more thing: Pre-numbered Heavenletters were filled with personal matters, mine and others’. These personal Heavenletters had been sent out as they were. However, before posting these early Heavenletters in the archives, at my request, Annette changed some names. There were also a very few instances where I took out incidents that I felt would be hurtful to someone and where their identity would be known regardless of a name change.
