Lord of the Sabbath
I woke up slowly this morning and sat in the bathroom feeling lifeless. I had a long day yesterday that included going to the movies and Knott’s Berry Farm with my autistic adult son. He had a melt down while I was trying to find parking at Knott’s . He threw a spray bottle at…
Manifesting energy
Today while in Sunday School the topic came up about how we use our energy. The energy I emit comes from my thoughts, my actions my dreams, my doubts; my prayers. In all honesty, I have adapted a sense of hopelessness as I said today in class. It has largely been self-negative my entire life.…
