This seems to be a consistent fear or worry of so many people- does evil really exist or am I opening myself up to evil when I open the door to spirit.  I did a video on my youtube channel revmartina444  http://youtu.be/Wb5f39Qk9Kw  that deals with opening the door to spirit- but never really addressed the topic of "evil" existing.   This isn't a new topic to me- as I have explored many facets of this over the years doing the work that I do.  What is clear to me is that when I open the door to spirit I open the door of my heart and the realm I connect with has NO EVIL whatsoever- only LOVE.  However, in this reality, on this plane of existance, I have seen and felt and experienced forces of resistance, pain and negativity that many would consider "darkness" or "evil".  So does evil exist?  Let's ask the CREW their take on it. Me- Guys, what's your explanation for this- Does evil really exist? Ann- This like many other que...

So several questions came in last week related to life purpose..... everyone wonders at some point in their life, why am I here?  Do I have any gifts? And what the heck am I supposed to do with them? Valid and powerful questions to explore..... So I went to the crew this morning and presented some of your questions about PURPOSE to see what lovely guidance they had to offer. Me: I have heard a lot of questions come in about WHY are we here? I have my own feelings on that,  but I'd like to hear what you all have to say about it. Ann: A simple way to explain it is that each of you chooses to come here to create and play and experience YOURSELF within the playground of duality.  Duality does not exist in our realm.  Separation does not exist in our realm.  While we are able to remain unique in our expression of the ONE SOURCE of all life, we still feel, know and understand at all times our connection to each other completely.  There are no pr...

I wanted to, as promised, tell you more information about my CREW. Today, I feel it is most fitting to begin with my Master Guide, Red Eagle.  What is a master guide?  A master guide also known as 'the guardian angel' who walks beside you through your whole life journey.  They have lived upon this Earth and have mastered the challenges that you are taking on. They offer themselves completely and freely in service to you during your lifetime and often through many of your lifetimes. They are not assigned to you but are are chosen by you personally. Even if you don't recognize their presence in your life they are there- fully loving and fully encouraging you to choose with your best self's interest in mind. When I was a child I had an imaginary friend named Rody.  I don't remember Rody at all, it was just something my mother remembers around the age of 2 or 3 for me.  As I grew up I was completely unaware of this presence any longer. I know now Rody was...

Interestingly enough the topic of suicide has come up several times in the last week.  I started reading a book about a woman who lost her son to suicide and is now communicating with him in the afterlife. I had reached out to a woman on facebook who had lost her son to suicide and was asking people to accept a photo of him in their home so that her son could "see the world" as he had always wanted to do, and to help increase suicide awareness, and then several questions came in from many of you about suicide. So, I am going to the CREW with these questions today in meditation...... are you ready to go deep? Me- Ok guys, first question.  "When a person commits suidice do they usually regret having done so when they get to the other side?" John- (my fransican monk with twinkly blue eyes and pure white hair) Yes and no would be the truthful answer to that question young lady.  The person whom chooses to end their own life most usually experiences sev...

A friend of mine is going through what I would call an extreme challenge.  Her son faced a very difficult situation years ago- he was a teenager and had a long term relationship with a young lady who was also a teenager.  After he turned 18, the relationship ended in a bad break up- as most teenage relationships do.  The young lady, angry about his ending things, decided to make him 'pay' for leaving her and reported to her mother that the relationship had been an intimate one (and perhaps you already know where I'm going with this). Because of our federal laws, this is considered sexual abuse and this young man ended up in prison for 3 years. I remember when it happened.  It sickened all of us who knew and loved him.  How could this happen?  It made no sense to me- the unfairness of it all.  The relationship had been consensual and they were only 2 years apart in age.   Through this whole ordeal, he kept his head high and his heart op...
