1 - Because of James
James Padgett made a choice, a choice that would eventually impact thousands of people. When he made this choice he was a lawyer and 62 years of age. What he did would change his life – forever. It was not as a lawyer that is of importance in this story of James; it is the story of a man with a heart and feelings for a dead person. This is what James chose to do: He went to the home of a psychic in order to attend a séance.
We did not travel to Washington, DC, the second week in September, 2014, only to remember James’ choice to visit a séance; it is what he did later, after his visit to a psychic in the spring of 1914.
When James attended the séance with Mrs. Maltby leading it, he not only received a message from his wife, Helen, who had died in February of 1914, but, surprisingly, he also received information that he, James Padgett, had psychic talents. Encouraged with this information, he worked hard to develop his abilities to receive communications from his wife and other so-called ‘dead people’.
After this experience, James did not quit his profession as a lawyer and become a well-known medium. He did, however, become an extremely prolific writer of messages from the spirit world; by one recent count, he received over 5,000 communications during the course of the next 8 or so years of his life.
Yet, it is not this information that drew people from all over the world to Washington, DC, in September of 2014. What was it? Why did we come together?
What drew us together is the astounding fact that James became a ‘scribe’ for Jesus and the messages about God’s Love, the Divine Love. We came to Washington to tell our stories and how we have been changed because of James, and the messages of Divine Love that he received from Jesus and other Celestial spirits.
Because of James we came together to celebrate experiences of God’s wonderful love – the Divine Love.
The knowledge of the existence of the Divine Love was given to James Padgett, and not only the knowledge and awareness, but also information of what this Divine Love is, what it will do, and the way to receive this love. This information is plainly shared in the messages received by James from Jesus and others.
The story of James is a love story. It is first the story of his love for his wife, Helen, and Helen’s love for James. But it is also the story of love that reaches to the highest heaven, including the story of the love that God has for all mankind.
