 Betty,
I just finished your book Embraced by the Light. Wow, what a message you have
delivered to the world. With all the negative energy in the world today your
book will hopefully serve as a wake-up call before it is too late. Blessings
on you and your family. I have recently lost both my brother and sister and
your message has helped me deal with the grief of their loss by knowing that
our spirits will continue on after our earthly departure.

Hi Betty,
I just have a great sense to email you and tell you how your experience has brought joy into my life today. I read your book today and could not put it down. I'm a native women from First Nation in Saskatchewan Canada. The reason I'm writing is my mother was a Christian women who grew up on a poor farm and my dad was raised on a reservation. Then my mom moved to the reserve where I was raised. She raised me Christian but I never really understood the gospel till a few years back. I am now 24. Anyways, I never really believed in the native way it, just didn't really make sense to me.
One time I went to a round dance and I enjoyed the company. I saw how everyone enjoyed each other and it brought joy to me. I really participated in the round dance and tried to understand the culture. On my way home I felt a great sense of peace like my spirit was happy it was dancing and was no longer running alone but with my native descendents. I felt content in that moment but I avoided it from continuing because I wasn't sure it was what God wanted because of how I had been raised with other beliefs about God. I had been believing that the church was the true way for so long that I was confused about the wonderful feeling I experienced. I was afraid that what the native culture did was not right.
It was made clearer to me from reading your book. I feel I can enjoy where I come from and I always knew I was Native for some reason in Gods plan but had been confused about the religion side of things even though when I would hear pow-wow music, I felt a sense of belonging. Anyways, I loved your book. You are truly blessed and I can't wait to meet you on earth or in spirit form, God bless!

Hello Betty,
I saw your homepage and I'm glad that there is now a way to contact you.
I read your book when I was a teenager, about 18 years ago. I'm from Germany and I guess the original title is "Embraced By The Light."
I really thought a lot of death. I lost my dad when I was 11 years-old and I'm afraid of dying. So I found your book. I just wanted to say thank you for the hope you gave to me. I'm not sure if I can believe, but your book was written so wonderfully and I hope that life will go on when we die.
Thank you for this wonderful book, a few years ago I bought one for my aunt, too and she liked it :-)
Have a nice day,
Heike

I read your book when I was seventeen. I was really sick and bedridden and someone gave me Embraced. I took a week and read it. It changed my life. I had been raised as a Christian, but was going through a time of great darkness. I was being bullied at school, home life was rough and true friends were scarce. I had been thinking of suicide as an option....that was 19 years ago. When the struggles of life threaten to overwhelm I have often gone back to Embraced along with my Bible...to help pull myself out of darkness. Thank you Betty. I have bought many copies of Embraced and given them as presents. I'm sure that your light and God's light have touched many more lives than you even know of. Perhaps you have reached the billions yet. :) I'm sure you will and then some. Keep up the great work!

Dear Betty,
My name is Mina. I came from Japan and it's been almost thirty years in United State. My background was kind of Buddhist. But I did not know anything about God. Most Japanese people have no religious at all. When I met my husband Armand here, he introduced about Christianity. I married with him and same time I had baptized as Christian that was twenty three years ago.
The reason I became interesting to be Christian because of the life after death. When I was in Japan I've never heard it and no one talked about. My husband has been a pastor for twenty years. The means that my life and environment has been always somehow connecting God's work and helping people.
One day about ten years ago he bought your book and suggested me to read it. I tried it but my English level and also my spiritual level were not good enough to understand yet. So I put your book in my bookshelf. Most time I was reading books are Japanese translated books. That's the way more easy for me to understand.
Well, couple weeks ago, all of sudden I remembered your book exist and I wanted to read it again. Because I was struggling to help Japanese friends in Japan. They are not easy to understand unseen world or Spiritual world. I was looking for the book I could recommend for them to read. When I read it again I thought this is it! This time I understood much better than first time. Could be my English level and spiritual level are increased ever before.
Anyway your near death experience were incredible. I want all my friends and family in Japan read your book and to have knowledge about the life after death. But they can't read English so my question is to exist Japanese translated book? I was researching in Japanese site but I could not find it. I might be wrong so please let me know.
Your book gives the direction we live for and nothing else important but love. While I was reading it again, my tears came out often that was not sad, yes that was joy! Thank you so much to write such a valuable book!!
Your sister in Christ,
Mina

Hi Betty.
I wanted to take a few minutes to thank you for Embraced By The Light. My wife and I live in an isolated Inuit community in the Canadian Arctic. My wife was visiting with our oldest daughter back home to help her with her new 2nd child.
During these weeks of being apart, I was able to express my emotions more freely (it's a man thing). Also during this time, a co-worker lent me a copy of Embraced By The Light. I was immediately captivated. I was really amazed at how you were able to express complex spiritual matters in simple human terms. And the things that you revealed confirmed what I already believed, but just could never explain or understand. There was several moments where I stopped in awe and said to myself, "God is talking directly to me."
I think that my co-worker was sent to me as a Helper and you are an instrument. I have ordered several copies online - 1 for my personal library and a few to lend or give to friends. This is the second time in my life that I have had a profound spiritual experience. The first was about 25 years ago when a friend invited some friends to see The Prodigal. I did not know what to do or how to respond, and I did not understand my feelings at that time as it was my first experience. But I am more mature and much better prepared now. I am certain that the Lord is preparing me for something great.
You need not reply to this. I just wanted to say Thank You for writing Embraced By The Light and sharing your personal experience so candidly.
Best regards,
David

My dearest Betty
Hi. I am a 34 years old Muslim woman. I am a general physician and I have an office in a small city (20000 people). As a matter of fact I am an unwanted child for my parents but full of love for them and my people! I think that I am one of who you don't know, but proudly I describe your books in my town.
2 years ago I want read my lessons and be a gynecologist but many several adventures refused me and I sadly decide had an office but after small time I read your beautiful books . Then I talk with my patients about you and your nice adventure.
Gradually I saw: I am one of your hands in the world, my GOD wants me to help you. My dear BETTY believe now I am crying because of many miracle in my life and GREAT AMOUNT OF LOVE OF GOD. I love you and will help you. GOD bless you.

Hello Betty,
I pray all is well with you. I sent you a question about a year ago after my 14 yr-old son passed away in his sleep. I asked how we go on when we loose someone we love so much. Thanks so much for taking the time to address that on your site. You will never know until we get to heaven just how much you helped my shattered heart. I had read a few of your books, long before my son's death ( I have a hard time writing "death" because to me, he's not dead), nevertheless, nothing could prepare me for the horrible pain, and lose I felt. There were no words anyone could say to lessen my hurt, but it sure helped to have someone with a little knowledge of the afterlife to give this mother's heart a little comfort. Honestly it's still not easy, but I'm still going and growing little everyday, with the hope of seeing my son again when I've finished my assignment here. Thank so much Betty, you've been a God send.

Dear Betty,
I often come to the library just to access your website. Your stories and messages are so beautiful and filled with love that I feel healed and strengthened afterwards. I believe it was an answer to my prayers for solace during a difficult challenge my son and I are going through.
As well, your books, Embraced and The Awakening Heart have also helped so much. I have read those years ago and was motivated to reread some. The story about the releasing of the eagle always touches my heart.
Thanks so much for sharing your love and wisdom. May all of it return to you multiplied.
Much love,
Marilyn

My dearest Betty:
Thank you for reminding me of our individual divine purpose to the greater "Purpose" at hand. I smiled inside as I read your current W.A.V.E.S newsletter. As I grow in the knowledge and understanding of our purpose (mine and my daughter's), I am amazed at Jesus' and the Scholar's timing. There was a very special and personal message to me in this newsletter and so much was answered for me. Whether you were cognitively aware of it or not, your soul spoke directly to me, as was meant to be. I also know Jesus had a great hand in this!
My daughter and I live in between the physical and spiritual realm now, as we are being prepared for the greater work at hand. It is so comforting to know that we have you out there, paving the way.
Thank you for all you have done and are doing for the greater Purpose.
With much more love than I could ever express in words....
Deanna
