Back then I was a "dance" (Jamaican party) lover and goer, but the message had come to me:"Seek Ye The Kingdom Of God And All His Righteousness and All Others Will Be Added Unto You."

Happy New Year everyone! I believe in the power of prayer. Even if you have no belief but are willing to use your breath/thoughts to send out your vibrations into the universe, it is a prayer. For some, like myself, nature is our religion. Among the Yoruba's of South Western Nigeria, I will sometime refer to God as Olodumare, because of my involvement in their tradition, but my real reasoning as a spiritual elder, a spiritualist is that my God is energy, and it's external existence is remarkable as well as it's internal. ...
