Ok, Ok, Ok. Sometimes being an instrument of Spirit is slightly inconvenient. Or, rather, we think we’re supposed to be doing one thing and Spirit says, “Hey! You! Yes, you! You’re supposed to be doing this other thing right now. Maybe you forgot, or didn’t get my memos, but switch over now.” It seems highly [...]
