PARROTS and MIRACLES ...
My Dear Tri-Color Gold ... (the Name I gave The Blessed Trinity) ...
Many a year ago You knew how my life would unfold. I now make my story public instead of untold. Maybe someone can use my life as an example to help them in their trials -- and give them hope to keep on keeping on for many more miles.
When I was barely out of my teens and brand new to the social scenes ... the days of the Hippies and the Yippies, we think someone put a drug into my drink. (I was a secretary in the Foreign Language Dept. of a local college.) My following days just began to sink ... hospitals, doctors, and every imaginable pill ... every conceivable side effect from day to day. Whoever was responsible probably didn't even know their hands performed a grave sin. They did ...kill me... on a daily basis for many a year. Prayers and tears seemed to be my daily bread when all is truthfully said. (My late Mom was a twin and very very delicate, as was I, even more so.)
My life was over before it even began. The clock just ran and ran. I watched the world go by. Friends and family married, the children came, and they all seemed to have a perfect life.
Why were my days filled with such strife? I began to pray and did not cease. In return, I began to see in all things Almighty God's Holy Face. Upon me came such great peace. Like Job I was given a taste of hell. I really can't believe I'm still here and able my story to tell.
With Holy Pictures I wallpapered my little room's space ... to keep my memory green ... so I could view 24/7 the Heavenly Grandeur -- Heaven's scene, and God's Sweet Face.
I was taken off all financial aid after several years. Oh, the tears! The letter said, "A hatcheck girl in a restaurant you could be, or a bagger in a food store." If only they knew ... neither position could I ever do! Could they have hurt me more? Three-quarters vegetable from the ECT shocks and all the other harsh knocks.
THE REST IS HISTORY.
I began to see Holy God in my life's everything. Every gift ... every trial ... He did bring. A life so sheltered. Then He started leading me blindly by His Hands to different peoples of all lands. To the weekly Spiritual Healing Services, the Laying On Of Hands, and Anointing with Oil, and each and every beauteous Hymn He taught me and had me joyously sing. To all the friends He gave me ... those similarly afflicted as I. We shared so many a sigh. We taught each other what we learned about God and our pilgrimage on earth's sod.
Then for a few years, Holy God gave me a few small jobs. He then sent me to a Social Worker who softened the sobs. For ten years, this Saint of a Social Worker gave me my own office to start a typing service -- rent free! MY VERY OWN OFFICE! God answered my prayers with greater substance than I ever prayed for ... for you see ...
WITH HOLY GOD NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE!
I was vegetable status before ... Today I have a personality that I only dreamed possible.
HOW COULD I EVER ASK FOR MORE?
To be chatty like a parrot, I prayed with all my heart and I always stayed near to Jesus -- never wanting to part.
Of course, I still have my bad days. Four years ago, there was a three-day coma. I arose on the third day, my kid brother said to me. I LOVE JESUS SO MUCH that I guess I have taken on a lot of His similarities. (St. Bernard of Clairvaux [1091-1153], a French Religious, wrote: "THAT WHICH WE LOVE, WE COME TO RESEMBLE."
I suffered a small injury this week which has confined me to my apartment for this time. There will always be the good days intertwined with the bad ... until His Kingdom comes.
COME, LORD JESUS, COME !
Dreams may come true if we weave them in and out and crochet, knit, and needlepoint them with FAITH, HOPE, and LOVE ... for The FATHER, The SON, and The HOLY SPIRIT.

Almighty God chose to keep me among the
survival of the fittest ... no matter how
weak. One of the very weakest links. He
knew how much I treasured His Gift of Life.
No one would like to walk in the shoes I
walked in. But do keep in mind that:
THERE BUT FOR THE GRACE OF GOD, GO I.
Those shoes taught me all about Love.
Those shoes taught me humility.
Those shoes taught me forgiveness.
Those shoes taught me HIS POWER.
Those shoes taught me HIS MAJESTY.
Those shoes taught me HIS FORGIVENESS.
Those shoes taught me just about everything
I needed to know.
NOT BEING ABLE TO WRITE ONE PARAGRAPH IN
HIGH SCHOOL ... NOW? I CAN'T STOP.
NOT BEING ABLE TO TALK ... TO BECOMING
CHATTY LIKE A PARROT ...
PARROTS AND PARROTS AND MORE PARROTS!!!
PRAISE FATHER, SON, AND HOLY GHOST!!!
