A week ago, I wrote this article and of how I found a book that called to me many many years ago.
It was almost factual, about how our society had become and of how only Christ could save us.
And then today, another book called to me again.
And of all places!
I found it where the children's books were.
How God posiitoned that book so I can't possibly miss it.
I usually go to a particular spot in that tiny, cramped bookshop.
But there was a man busily searching for his own treasures.
Leaving him in peace, I went to another area.
And that second prophetic book was there.
Such a slim volume, so easy to read, so easy on the eyes.
And when I got home, I found it was so easy on the soul, too.
It was the story of an ex-Nam sergeant who had a spiritual encounter.
It happened on the day he wanted out from this world.
But that's when Spirit really visits, when you're all down and gone.
That's when you're ready to leave the things of the world.
And you get lifted from the throes of misery.
What was amazing about that book was when it mentioned this:
"When the seventy years are complete,
life on earth will begin changing at a rapid pace."
That may not mean much but the starting point was 1948 after World War II.
That means 2018 marked the end of the 70 years.
And the author of this book, Joseph Gartenmayer, connected things with The Book of Joel.
Interestingly, Joel was considered one of the "minor" prophets, and yet he was a very mysterious one.
Not much is really known about him but apparently, he lived around 835 B.C.
Other parts of the Gartenmayer book also corresponded to my own dreams and visions.
Of course, by now, I'm no longer surprised I was guided to his book.
Everything has been a progression, for my heart and mind are open to the necessary promptings.
And possibly, even the conclusions.
It merely confirms what I already know or suspect.
That time is running short and that we are to be kinder and gentler with each other.
And that we are to look upon Jesus as our personal Savior.
And true enough, I saw the words "Only Jesus" on the back of a man's shirt as I was going to pay something at the supermarket.
And right below those words was the reminder that Jesus was the "Way, the Truth, and the Light".
And that was before I even got to read the book.
If you follow the every day "signs", the daily "prompts", and you're a researcher like me, you'd know you're on to something really really important.
I know I am.
I feel it in my heart.
I've made it my life's mission to "see" the "signs", to "feel" the "triggers".
I've made it my mission to be completely awake and aware.
Thus, I share these things with you, careful that it's not colored by any ego on my part.
For, as always, the message is more important than the messenger.
We're all actually messengers to each other.
Who listens is another story.
And yes, there are many false messages, too.
It's not by accident there have been a lot of "blood moons" lately.
Too often, in fact.
It's not by accident there have been a lot of tremors lately where I live, too.
And like I said in another article, all that we own won't mean much when Mother Earth decides to shrug her shoulder or scratch an itch.
The message really is just to look upon Jesus as your personal Savior and to change our ways.
The funny thing is that as I followed the prompts and bought the Gartenmayer book today, read it, and continued searching online, I was easily led to these two things about The Book of Joel:
I was born Catholic and surely no Bible scholar but I was led to those two different sources instead.
Where hearts and souls are one, there is no specific religion -- only Christ.
There is no division; only unity.
Nothing matters when Christ returns, but what we have in our heart.
Was His Sacrifice all worth it?
Were we all worth it?
All I can tell you from my dreams, visions, and instincts is this:
You must listen to Christ in your heart.
In the end, we all go back Home to Him.
I was shown that in a dream I had in 2001.
For in that dream, I was looking for a "home".
He was waiting in the doorway for me.
I was forever changed after that.
