Love


Book Description

The Real Word of God series began in 2019, part one being published in 2020. There has been much information delivered in this series, and I am being called to take a break from this series after part V. There is so much information to be processed, and so many layers of healing in that process, that I must stop delivering the information, and allow humanity to catch up with it. Too much too fast is destructive to evolution, and even though I have enough information to continue writing in this series, it would hinder the ability for humanity to genuinely learn all of the lessons involved. Use me as an example of listening to intuitive guidance for the greater good of humanity versus the plans our limited human mind sets in place. I will continue to work in different ways as I am being called to take action in new ways. We are limitless when walking as a vessel of creation. There is no final destination to reach, there is no point where you're "almost there." You are always there, exactly where you need to be with an opportunity to choose the next level of yourself. When you feel stuck, this series was given to me, to give to you to bring you out of the dark. I Love You. Love, Shanna
