         (Starting off in whispers:) Psstt! Honey! Over here! Can you hear Me? Psstt! I'm trying to get your attention! Over here! I'm whispering! Shhh! You're talking too much! You're thinking too much! Can you hear My whispers? You have to be real still to hear the whispers.
         Let's try playing the whisper game, okay? When all those negative thoughts come in, sometimes the only way to beat them is to play the whisper game. When all those other voices come in so loud, and when you begin to feel so bad and so sad, and that makes you feel like you don't like yourself, let's play the whisper game. Or when you feel upset at yourself for something you've done, or maybe you're upset at someone else, or maybe you feel they don't like you or something, let's play the whisper game!
         I'll whisper something into your ear, and you can stop and see if you can hear it, and we can turn all those negative thoughts into positive ones or into prayers, okay? I'll be there whispering in your ear. Let's see if you can hear what I have to say, all right? This is how it works:
         When you think you're ugly, stop for a moment to see what the whisper says, and I'll say something like this: "You're one of My beautiful flowers! To Me, each flower is unique and beautiful and special with its own particular fragrance and glory. You're My beautiful little flower."
         If you start to think, "What am I doing here? I'm no good to anybody, I might as well quit!" Stop to see if you can hear what I'm saying to you: "Before you were born, I named you and created you with your own gifts, with a special plan and a special calling for your life. I love you, My dear child. No one else can fill your place. Just follow Me and I will show you great and mighty things. I will lead you by My Own hand. You're My little pet! I have a special job for you and only you, reserved just for you and no one else! I need you, My little pet."
         Or if you think your mom and dad don't love you, just listen to My whispers and they will tell you: "This is mom and dad and we do love you. We pray for you and we don't know what we'd ever do without you. You're so dear to us! We love you and we're trying to do our best to help you."
         Or if there is someone in your group that bothers you, I could whisper a special prayer in your ear for that person, telling you how to pray for them, like this: "What she does really bothers me, Lord. But please help me to love her and be kind to her like You would. And if she's going through any trials, please help her. Maybe there's some way I can help. Maybe there's a verse I can give, or maybe I could ask if I could pray with her, or just give her a hug or a kiss."
         Or if you're having a hard time getting through the day and nothing seems to be going right, and there doesn't seem to be anyone to talk to, you can ask Me about it and I'll whisper to you and show you what to do. I can share verses like, "If you know these things, happy are ye if you do them." "Great peace have they which love My law and nothing shall offend them."
         So wouldn't that be fun to play the whisper game, to turn your unhappy thoughts into happy ones, and the negged-out thoughts into prayers? Okay?
         Can you hear Me whispering to you now, calling your name? "I love you!" I love to whisper in your ear. And together we'll show that old Devil he can't get you down with his dirty old negative, stinky, icky whispers, okay? Just tune in to Me and let's see what you can hear, what whispers from beyond you can hear!
