The Heaven Hotline
The Heaven Hotline
In my mind today I felt Heaven and Earth meet. It all started with church.. I rolled into church as usual, saying hello to everyone that I met. Feeling our church family love all around us. I paused by the columbarum where the ashes of our loved ones are placed. I looked lovingly at Ken’s resting place still missing him but understanding more each day that death is part of the journey, but not the end. Ken got 67 earthly years. I have had 54 years . We will have a limited number of years here so don’t waste your time. I look back on Ken’s years and I am so proud of the man he was and how he spent his years leading our family. His morals were created with the foundation of Christianity. Every time I enter our home Parrish, Holy Angels, I am continuing our marriage commitment to each other of leading our children to the Christ’s Church and Cross to worship as Christ’s body, the church. Don’t waste your years! Find your place in Christ’s body ASAP. This is the best way to build God’s Kingdom and it will lead you to eternity.
I rolled into the chapel feeling the warmth of the Holy Spirit and parked on the front pew. I looked across the pew to see if our last little bird was going to make it on time; she did! We were snug in the pew for the announcements and the service was for Ken’s grandfather, Joe Walden, Jr. The music began and the Spirit was moving all around in and through us. I have been researching the Heaven and Hell human conundrum. Studying Scripture and trying to understand because students remember we are on a journey whether we believe it or not, back row not Disney World! In my research, I found out more about our human destination. Of course there are two destinations: Heaven and Hell. I want to discuss Heaven. Sorry back row, but you can write a paper on the 7 Deadly Sins to let me know that you understand the road map to Hell and the fastest way to get there.
Heaven is where I want to be. Heaven is full of Angels. Heaven is full of Saints: people who have lived Holy lives here on Earth promoting and building God’s Kingdom giving everything up for God. Front row good question. Yes, you can become a Saint. Heaven contains the Trinity: the Father,Son, and Holy Spirit. These people and Holy beings in Heaven commune together for the good of God’s Holy Church. They work day and night and never take a day off. They are our Hotline to Heaven. They hear our cries and petitions.
Today in the first pew I literally felt the Communion of Heaven and answered prayers. Our family used to fill two pews. It has shrunk down to about 2/3s of one. Left here to finish my marriage promise I continue to pray for my children’s futures especially my bird in the middle that is my caregiver. I know I have to go to my death but I pray for God and all those in Heaven to bring him the help mate that will love him with true love that he and his Dad shared. Ken and I often discussed this and God is moving. Today there was one more in our pew beside him. It is early in the relationship but God is in it with them. I will continue to pray for them through the Hotline. I know that the mass, church service, in memory of Papa Joe was a God wink. I felt Ken’s spirit and the Angels and Saints as I went to the Feast of Heaven and Earth, Communion of the Eucharist. I was able to celebrate the Last Supper with my Lord and Savior Jesus. Back row extra credit, come to church with me!

The Holy Eucharist is the body of Christ. All churches or denominations before 1500 believed and taught it. That is, the symbolic theory was a heretical invention of the 16th century. We, Catholics,still BELIEVE!
Quotes from Peter Kreeft
Our life here on Earth has as its purpose precisely to prepare for our eternal happiness. This world is a large womb. It is a 'test' as all opportunities are tests.
Anyone, without exception, can know God if they really want to simply by praying, by honestly telling Him that they want to know Him. He always responds to honest seekers. Jesus promised, 'All who seek, find.’
God's interventions are miracles: events that cannot happen by merely natural agents but only by a supernatural agent. They no more interfere with our free will than natural events like earthquakes. We choose how to respond to them.
