I was summoned again. Each time it is like the first time you ever took a breath of air, so fresh. Like always the angel says, “You know the routine, have a seat, someone will be with you.” Every time I observe the people. They are always doing things, different things all the time, it's never the same. The scenery is so colorful, like nothing you've ever seen. I notice a person coming my way, but couldn't figure out who it was. It looked like a woman. It was, and I introduced myself.
She replied, “And it is nice to meet you. I've heard great things about you. But you do know who I am.” She spoke to me about pursuing, and having faith. “We must continue to have faith and believe, because believing is what takes you to the next level. Without believing you will never know, you will miss out. Miss out on your blessings and what God has to give you. Even through your sickness, your trials, what you go through, you must believe. I want you to hear what I say, pay close attention. I want you to clear your mind because I don't want you trying to figure out who I am, because you'll miss it. In time I will tell you my name. But for now everybody knows who I am, even you. Let me look at you.” So she leaned over, put her elbows on her knees, her hands on her face and looked, and looked. She didn't speak and I didn't speak. She just looked.
“Yes. I see what they talk about. It is an honor to meet you, it is. It is a blessing for me to meet you. I am the woman they call, ‘the woman with the issue of blood.’ My name was not given. It is not written. But I do have a name. In time you will know it. But, let's go back to having faith, determination, pursuing. You must believe! I knew. There was something in my heart that was speaking to me, driving me to go forth. ‘No matter what the cost is, I have to get through all these people. I know in my heart, I know in my mind, I know in my spirit—I know in my heart—this man can heal me if I can just touch—but I have to go through all this in order to get my healing.’ We must believe He is Who He says He is. We must believe what we see or what we hear. Allow me to embrace you.”
She embraced me without me embracing her back. I don't know why, but I don't embrace them, they do all the embracing. I guess because it's what they are giving, what's going into me from them into my spirit. I just humble myself and it is what it is. She said, “I will speak to you another time. You are a blessed man. It will be an honor to see you again. I believe it, do you?”
