I was summoned. As usual the angel says, "You know the routine, sit here, someone wants to visit with you." So I wait. It is so peaceful and I am calm and relaxed. Soon I see someone approaching. As they get closer I can see it's a woman. She says, "It is good to meet you, I know who you are, but you don't know who I am. I'm in the Old Testament."
(The people from the Old Testament have a way of teasing Ruben a little because they know he has a difficult time reading and therefore is not familiar with the Old Testament). Ruben thinks to himself, Wow. OK, I have no idea—she reads his thoughts. She took his hand, they shook hands and she said, "Let’s sit down, let me talk to you. Wait a minute, let me see what they are all talking about. She stared at me a few minutes and said, “Yes, I can see what they are talking about. Your journey is a beautiful journey, but yet do not be disappointed in others. Because in this world there is so much hatred. You are going from step to step, but because there are so many in the world with envy; they have a degree, they have education, are established in so many ways and it's hard. It's not for you to look down, you do the best you can to look up. I am sharing this because of my experience. What I went through wasn't easy, but it's part of what life is all about. Now that I see you, now I know that you can. You can succeed. My name is Hannah."
"What I went through and what I wanted for myself was a child so I could fit in. Sometimes you might feel out of place with these great men and great women of God. But do not feel that you are all alone. There are a lot of people that feel the same way. They don't have the education, the skills. But this is why God chooses simple people. If you have time I want you to read my story and you will see how all this comes together. In that regard, the time will come when I would like for you to meet my son. When the time comes you will know. I feel it in my heart, I feel it in my spirit the time will come soon. But read and learn about my background, what I struggled with, just like a lot of women. Now if you want a little more detail, what Mary Magdalene went through and what I went through is almost the same. We didn't fit in in a lot of ways. But God is a merciful God. A God of mercy Who forgives. Just read what you can. But I am relying on you meeting my son. It is good to see you. I've heard things about you, great things. This is part of what I want to give you; don't ever look down, always look up. You are precious. Do not ever let anyone tell you different. Let me embrace you with all my love.” She shed a tear. “But great things are coming forth for those who are listening, for those who are obedient, those that want to follow. I will see you again."
