[Sundaycommunity] A Little Good News-Ann Murray (Original 1983 Video)

[Tina Neves]

Thank you, Paul, for your sharing and reflection
Yes, love and compassion..that's it
It helps me a lot pondering on the message of the great mystic Julian of
Noruish
Often it comes to me the meaning of her words "everything is well, and
everything is well, and every manner of things is well"...
Yes very sad what happened  with our neighbours in the south...reason for
so much concern...but...as with what's going on on the world now...there is
a mysterious reason beyond all that...the mystics would perceive it as
"everything is well...."
Peace blessings
