Yes, relevations are spine-tingling things--but, but... why can't we live in a state more equal to that than this one we are usually in, the mundane, doubting, fearful life? There have been times in my life when I have had to rely on the spirit completely--and NOW is another of those times. When things are out of control I like to believe in a benevolent Being, but maybe I am making it up to soothe myself? I never know. Too many times God is silent. Too many times there are no answers.
