I am filled with awe¹ and reverence² at the reading of those words. Thank You for being here with me in this way. Thank You for being here with all of us.

You are welcome. Thank you for being here for Me.

I have just a few remaining questions, some having to do with those “evolved beings,” and then I will allow myself to fin-ish this dialogue.

My Beloved, you will never finish this dialogue, nor will you ever have to. Your conversation with God will go on forever. And, now that you are actively³ engaged in it, that conversation will soon lead to friendship. All good conversations eventually lead to friendship, and soon your conversation with Cod⁴ will produce a Friend-ship with God.

I feel that. I feel that we’ve actually become friends.

And, as happens in all relationships, that friendship, if it is nurtured⁵, kindled⁶, and allowed to grow, will pro-duce, at last, a sense of communion. You will feel and experience your Self as being in Communion with God.

This will be a Holy Communion, for then We will speak as One.

And so this dialogue will continue?

Yes, always.

And I won’t have to say goodbye at the end of this book?

You never have to say goodbye. You only have to say hello.

You’re marvelous, do You know that? You’re simply marvelous.

And so are you, My son. And so are you.

As are all My children, everywhere.

Do You have children “everywhere”?

Of course.

No, I mean literally⁷, everywhere. Is there life on other plan-ets? Are Your children elsewhere in the universe?

Again, of course.

Are these civilizations more advanced?

Some of them, yes.
