My beliefs do change. Life is dynamic, so my beliefs are as well. But the longer I live, and the more things I experience, the stronger those beliefs become, though there are minor changes in the beliefs themselves. Perhaps it would be helpful to explain some, but not by any means all, of those experiences. A neighbor, elderly lady, became sick. She was taken to the hospital and diagnosed with extreme terminal cancer, and given a couple months to live. Her stomach and liver were virtually gone. A prayer team was set up to pray for her. Though she was very spiritual, and a very, very good person because of that belief, she knew nothing at all about it, nor did her family at that point. Her condition steadily deteriorated until the prayer team was assembled. Then, seemingly miraculously, as people started praying for her, she started recovering. Doctors had no explanation. In less than a month, she was released from the hospital. In less than six, her stomach was performing properly and her liver was regenerating, as livers do. About a year after this (and she still did not know that anyone had prayed for her), she told me that she was laying there and suddenly felt a calm, loving presence. She suddenly knew she was going to be okay. Ramona passed away fifteen years ago, of old age, and she was healthy at that time. If there was no deity, why would she recover with mere prayer, without even knowing that the prayer was given? Another case was my mother. Despite the fact that my grandmother was a true Christian, living the life rather than merely talking about it, my mom didn't believe in God. She felt that things just happened because they happened, nothing more. She'd lost family members, and thought that there couldn't be a God if her loved ones had died like that. Then she came across a time when she was set to lose everything. She was a real estate salesman and hadn't made a sale in six months. All the bills, power, water, house payment, car payment, were overdue and subject to being turned off or closed out. She did something extraordinary...she prayed to God for help. Very unexpectedly, a property that was "unsellable" was sold, producing almost exactly the amount necessary to pay the bills. Another case; a man came to me who had severe problems. His health was failing, and everything, financially, was falling down around him. His wife had left him, his kids hated him, he owed money to the IRS, he had no place to stay, and he was in danger of losing his job. I accepted the case, and contacted my guide. She told me that his soul was damaged, and that was a cause of the problem. I won't go into the details, but I went deeper into the spirit realm than I'd ever been. I was scared, and I didn't know what I was doing. But I did what I could. Again, I won't go into details, but I did what I had to, with the help of my spirit guide. The man ended up reconciling with his wife, he was able to put his kids through school, and they now think very highly of him, he not only kept his job, he was promoted, and the IRS contacted him to let him know that THEY had made a mistake and actually owed him money. This is just three of probably 30-40 instances that show me that there IS someone greater than us, out there and listening. Do they always answer? Yes they do. But the answer comes in three ways: Yes, No, and Not now. But even when the answer is no, there is a very good reason for it, which may not be apparent for some time. I've been cynical in the past, but I'm not any longer. Too much has happened and continues to happen.
