Preparing to speak in a spiritually charged forum can be daunting. As my turn draws nearer, I often find that my mind is in the dark as to what I should talk about.  The experience can be a bit intimidating, because starting with a blank slate can lead to the anxiety that nothing will be there—that this time around I’ll come up empty handed.  But of course, that hasn’t happened yet.  I’ve seen time and time again that what is needed does come to me and is abundantly available, reminding me to stay in position to let it be so.  Over the years I have increasingly come to know that spirit can absolutely be trusted.
