I am in the process of embracing these ideas as my own faith view. And, I feel scared.
To silently believe in God and the power of love is different than including both in my conversations and writing. My close friends are getting an earful from this process.
I feel scared because I fear the story that I will be harshly judged by one or more people I love or admire. I feel scared we are wrong. (Including you).
This is not a subtle matter. This is big to me. So, I grab my staff and medicine bag, pull my boots on, and head into the forest to pray.
I think we need more of God. How does that happen?
For me it started with the amazement of Life(people&nature), and that it needed to be treated in a non-violent way. I think it comes from the caring, nurturing, and creative aspect of being human.
You made a good point when you wrote "To silently believe in God and the power of love is different than including both in my conversations and writing." The way I have been pondering and dealing with this is the harsh energy I can get from people when I share God's presence is to let it go as best I can. I keep my relationship with the Holy God because that is the freedom that was given and it is mine, and does not belong to the world. So I continue with the relationship and the work.
These are very difficult and challenging times we're living in.
Your going into the forest and praying, makes sense to me.
I walked across Spain and Portugal on a trail called the Camino de Santiago de Composetal a few years ago and found it to be powerful medicine for me in being able face my own fears and also developed a deep connection to mother earth 🌎 and to my purpose here at this time.
As a child of God, I always get the messages I need in the moment. Thank you, Marianne! I am with you in "Love in Action" Your messages are what we need now, I am glad your voice is better to deliver them.

I'm grateful to Marianne and you, Nancy, for this space. This time is important for me. This topic is as important to me as anything I know.
Hello Bill,
These are very difficult and challenging times we're living in.

I walked across Spain and Portugal on a trail called the Camino de Santiago de Composetal a few years ago and found it to be powerful medicine for me in being able face my own fears and also developed a deep connection to mother earth 🌎 and to my purpose here at this time.
It was profound for me.
It's time to go deep, I feel.
Time to go deep. Aho and Amen.
Good reminder. Thank-you. Continued positive thoughts and prayers for your voice to be soon restored.

Powdered myrrh works on strepp throat, I don't know about laryngitis.
