My Slumber

               So I was trying to think of what to write next and I decided that I should pray about it. In my mind I was thinking that I could say something like “I was praying about what to write and…” and at that very moment the little voice in my head said, “Haven’t you been listening? Talk about your slumbers.” I had thought about using this as a topic several times but kept thinking it was a stupid idea. I guess I have to stop dismissing ideas that come to my mind as stupid.

                Well anyways, I have been very spiritually minded even since I was a child. I tried to always listen to that little voice in my head, and it always brought me to good things. Like to my wife but that is a story for later. And I had also been gifted with foresight; I was really good with tarot cards.  But after I had gotten married and a little older I started to wander off of my spiritual path and was focused too much on other parts of my daily life. Once I started to leave my spiritual path it was as though those things were closed off to me. It was kind of like I was in a deep slumber; I had no more guidance and felt as though I was wandering aimlessly. Once Andee found the church that we are going to now and I started a new chapter in my journey the voice of the Holy Spirit had come back to me. That guidance, joy, and certainty of where I was going in life had come back. Now I have yet to test out whether the foresight has come back, which I guess I should try at some point, but for now I am not really worried about it.

I know I said slumbers as though there were more than one. Well unfortunately I slipped away again recently. I had stopped going to church and stopped reading the scriptures for almost a month, or maybe more than a month I am bad with keeping track of time. But luckily for me my wife was there for me. She started asking what I thought about certain aspects of the Latter Day Saints and that snapped me out of it.

What I want to say is don’t let the drudgery of daily life keep you from your spiritual adventure. That guidance you get from being connected to this wonderful life force around you can be of so much more help than you may ever realize. Oh and don’t forget to listen for that guidance it is there.
