Written December 1996 I’ve come to realize that God, by whatever name I wish to use, is a being, an entity, a consciousness that loves and accepts me. This Divine entity is within all of us. We are within it. We are one with each other. We are one with God. An envelope that encompasses… Continue reading My God

Mother’s Passing
Alfreda T. Beeler, my Mother, died on July 16, 1991. She was suffering from Alzheimer’s, a broken hip, collapsed lung, and a cracked rib. I thought she was gone.

Mary Grace’s Last Visit

This is the one and only time my God mother, Mary Grace came to visit me. We were all paying attention to the priest.… Continue reading Mary Grace’s Last Visit
Intercession Offered – Intercession Refused
By Bill Beeler God was there even when I didn’t listen to his messenger.

Hard working and easy going., he pored over the newspaper to improve his reading skills. Customers never realized that Audy’s sons helped him memorize the contracts.

Communication between My God and Me
Over the years I have talked to a number of Charismatics and Pentecostals who say that God talks to them on a regular basis. They aren’t Catholics. Most Catholics I know do not really buy this “God Talk” stuff. Most Catholics I know feel that God talks to us through the Church the Pope, the… Continue reading Communication between My God and Me
