Kingdom of Heaven

Many don’t realize they are to communicate with their soul. We do a lot of things our soul doesn’t like, and when we do we are causing our soul to stop communicating. Many hear their soul but don’t give thought to what it says. It is cut off by the cares of this life.

Getting ready for Valentine’s Day

Too much advance notice? Yeah, maybe

Last Sunday night, actually it was in the wee hours of Monday morning, I heard a ding on my phone. I also heard a ding on my wife Pat’s phone. I could tell this wasn’t a text message, so there was no reason to be alarmed. This was about 45 minutes after we had climbed into bed.
