Messages from Jesus

Mary Ann Johnston

Also by Mary Ann Johnston: Hymns of Love (Music CD)

Mary Ann Johnston, a spiritual healer and retired occupational therapist, has written a book of her conversations with Jesus. She says that Jesus has spoken to her since she was a child, and, in the winter of 2002, told her to write a series of books, bringing his messages and the teachings of other masters to humanity.

In asking Jesus questions and receiving his answers, Mary Ann not only hears Jesus speak, but also sees him in spirit form. In Messages from Jesus, she describes her experiences with Jesus, including his giving her the name Saint Ta, and records his messages on a wide variety of topics, from how to cope with terrorism and fear, to life after death and how to love unconditionally.

"As one who interviews people regularly for a weekly radio program, I have come to appreciate one of the most important elements I hear from others in my profession. They have the uncanny ability to ask questions of the guest that I would be asking if I were in the studio at the time.

"So imagine listening to an interview of Jesus of Nazareth. Most of us would be sitting there just praying that the host would delve into the issues that are near and dear to us. In her book, Messages from Jesus, Mary Ann Johnston (who received the spiritual name of St. Ta from Jesus) shares with the world hours of conversation she had with the One known as The Christ. Chances are, if you have a question for Him, the answer lies in these pages. Naturally, personal prophecies (other than for St. Ta) are not dealt with. But the essence of the spiritual life, modern religion, world affairs and disasters are all dealt with rather comprehensively.

"Nothing that I or the author could say will convince anyone skeptical of these pages' origin about their authenticity. But then again, only personal conviction will allow any scripture to be thought of as veritable. I encourage you to delve into this work and find out for yourself if Truth is present here. My guess is, regardless of what you determine, you won't skip a page."

"I am reading and re-reading Chapters 5 and 6. It is so intimate, I feel like I am with you in the healing room at your house or on the back patio or sitting at the kitchen table. I am getting so much fuel for meditation, and confidence that--outrageous as my work with the Hunger Project and the activities of my daily life are--I am clearly doing God's work. Thank you so much!!

"I feel like I am getting so close to you, reading your book. I am moved to tears and have to stop, meditate, contemplate, it is so rich."

Dorothy Stingley, Entrepreneur/Activist - Hunger Project

"I and my Father are within your heart. We chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father, He may give it to you. Center yourself and you will not go wrong in your actions. Take time for reflection into your inner true self, as it is given. Your writing is being given a blessing from God."

I momentarily couldn't go on. His beautiful message made me turn inward. There were no feelings or words or actions that could have made any sense. At that moment, I simply "was."

After a space of time I continued, "Sweet Jesus, You tell me writing is a way to reach an audience. Why do I need to reach an audience?"

"Because times are rough. People are afraid."

"Will you give people hope?"

"I will if they listen."

"There will still be a lot of people that this won't reach...."

"You will reach a majority."

"Jesus, I have a hard time focusing on philosophical thoughts. Ask George; He'll tell you. Will I really be able to write a book?"

"Very definitely."

"One, two . . . ?"

"As many as you wish."

I lost Him at this point. I don't remember any more conversation. It was as if I were falling asleep.
