My sisters and brothers, today’s podcast is about a little song titled, ‘It’s Really Me’, and it was written in the late seventies. But the way this song was created is what my Spiritual Directors, Sister Bernadette and Father Bill, shared with me, as being one of the unknown mystics that takes hold of one’s inner self, leaving one searching for more and more until that part of the mystery is revealed. This lasted three days for me, the constant suffering of tears being cried inside my body, and not knowing any answers of why or what it might be. Everything I was feeling was so confusing, and what I was singing was not in my native tongue so understanding was not yet clear. After these three days of darkness I was in passed, a light started to open my mind, and then came the creation of this song, and I understood the tears that were cried. It all had to do with this teaching I was receiving at the Holy Spirit Breakfast given by Father Bill and Sister Bernadette. One day, in 1978, at the Holy Spirit Breakfast, they had a presentation on the leaflet that were being distributed by the Knights of Columbus. This leaflet on one side, had Significant Events In A New Life. My sisters and brothers, did you know or do you know, the specifics of the development and functions of a new life? I know that I didn’t, not until I was at this teaching. Some of these significant events in a new life are: Immediately upon conception, cellular development begins. But did you know that before implantation the sex of the new life can be determined? Yes. At implantation, the new life is composed of hundreds of cells and has developed a protective hormone to prevent the mother’s body from rejecting it as a foreign tissue. Now I was astonished on hearing these proven Chronology of the New Human Life.
Now the other side of that leaflet, it is about a Diary Of An Unborn Child. It starts with an unborn child saying, ‘today my life began’. Now we won’t go into these weeks, however, our song, ‘It’s Really Me’, is actually based on this diary of an unborn child. I believe our song is one of sharing a part of creation, not of any judgement, but that of a loving, forgiving, and merciful God. It is one of teaching, of learning, and with much prayer, of understanding’. Our song, ‘It’s Really Me’, is about a baby singing of the happiness she is feeling as she gets closer to being born; You will feel her joy in this song, you will also feel her tears. This song has traveled with us and has been sung throughout our journey, in many different states, from the north eastern states to the middle of Nebraska, into the southern states, and at many different conferences. One of these, where we were asked to minister through this song, was at a conferences held in Montgomery Alabama, for Clergy, Catholic Priests and the Bishops from southern Alabama. We pray this song brings all people everywhere to a search of God’s Holy Will will bring deep inner peace in every soul. Amen.
