Foreword
By Barbara Stone, Ph.D.
The message of this book is that everything that happens in our lives is an agreement we made with Spirit prior to our birth regarding the situations we have chosen for our soul to progress in its evolution. If we awaken to the truth of this reality, we take ourselves out of the “poor me” victim stance from our suffering and step into the empowered position of co-designers of the fabric of our own lives.
With a level of honesty and transparency beyond what most people would dare to disclose, Linda Stein-Luthke has bared her soul to the world in this book. She reveals the surprise of awakening to her spiritual gifts, trying to share her insights with others, and the agony of feeling misunderstood and shunned by others. Over and over, she shows us how heartbreaking situations manifested in her life -- but rather than calling a relationship that ended a failure, she jumps to a higher octave of truth and shows how the understanding that comes from connecting with the spiritual realm reframes the situation as a stepping stone to mastering valuable life lessons and finding our true spiritual teachers and partners.
When I first met Linda, I was impressed by the beauty in her huge eyes. She is a person who can see into spiritual dimensions to make sense of the entanglements humans get themselves into. She receives audible messages from Spirit that guide her life, and she consciously channels information from the Beings of Light that are always present to assist humanity whenever we ask for their help. The many fine books that Linda and her husband Martin Luthke have written help others understand the nature of spiritual reality and give them the keys to accessing their own connection to the Divine. The two of them are a remarkable soul-flame team.
Linda has been a personal guide for me at major turning points in my own life, so I can attest to the depth of wisdom that comes through her, always empowering people to make sense of the lessons they have chosen to learn.
Martin’s development of Psychoenergetic Healing, a depth spiritual perspective for his practice as a psychologist, has been a major professional influence on my own work, which is the Soul Detective™ protocols I have developed to heal past life trauma, earthbound spirits, and a variety of other energetic disturbances. Martin sets psychotherapy inside of pyramids of Light, inter-dimensional windows for the soul to access higher levels of help, support, and wisdom than would come from looking at a situation only at face value. The power of prayer to assist in emotional healing is well-known. Adding the shape of the pyramid to set up a sacred space links Psychoenergetic Healing to the Egyptian Mystery Schools and their knowledge of the power of Sacred Geometry to connect the human with the Divine.
This bridge between the Mind of God and humanity is the gift that Martin and Linda facilitate for all of us. They never set themselves apart as being something special because they have opened to a connection with Beings of Light; rather, they beckon to the rest of us to come join them to look at our lives from a higher point of view.
Will you dare go there with them? Beware that instead of commiserating about how hard your life is, how terrible the world situation is, or how badly your loved ones hurt you, you will instead ask yourself, “What lesson did I design for myself to learn from this situation?” You will honor the choices that others make for what they need to learn, without judgment -- and yet be able to be present with compassion for them to help them see the deeper levels of Spirit at work in their lives and the growth opportunities present in each crisis. The messages that repeatedly come through Linda’s channeling the Beings of Light are, “Trust. Everything is in order. We are with you.”
What would your life be like if you absolutely knew that everything in your life is exactly as it is supposed to be?

Preface
About this Book
I have had many requests over the years to write an account of my life. I’ve been waiting for an event or experience that would tell me it was time to sit down and do it. I finally heard from my own Light that writing my story was another agreement that I made prior to entering this plane; I could fulfill this agreement anytime I was ready.
Why would I be writing my story? My stubborn mind wouldn’t be satisfied knowing that there was an agreement to be fulfilled; I needed another reason. I finally realized that my primary motivation in committing my life to paper was to help others understand what took me so long to understand: I’ve learned that awakening and opening to the Light is a process – filled with adventure, wonder, and pain. And after sixty-five years I am still in process…
