Sandra Maslow Smith; Fall of 1997, CT
The week of caring for young grandchildren had come to a close… and I had left Wisconsin, returning home to Connecticut. It was almost midnight on a very clear, crisp fall night… and I was almost home. The drive, after the long flight, would be less than thirty more minutes. The road from New York to New Canaan – hilly and curvy, banked by rock walls and trees – was empty of traffic at this hour. All was dark except for the headlamps on my car.
I came over a steep hill… saw a column of light descending from the sky… and experienced time and space standing still. I was “suspended in the moment.” Immediately, I knew this was Mary… not from memory, not from experience, but by direct and inexplicable knowing.
In words, loud and clear, spoken heart to heart, mind to mind, yet not heard through the senses – not in a way of communicating I had ever before experienced – she said to me, “Work for all my children.” My response was rapid and surprisingly not shaken, “Yes, in the United States!” She commanded, “No… the world.” The communication clear and loud, yet not a sound touched my ears… actually via a “language” inexplicable to the reasoning mind.
Then, as suddenly as she appeared, she was gone… the column returned to the sky… and I left the suspended moment, now continuing on down the hill. All was again black, except for the path being illuminated by the car’s headlamps.
“Work for all my children in the world.” I began to ponder this in my heart. What does this mean? I had stepped onto the ongoing path of answering “Yes” to the call.
