forgiveness/ascendance-CC

[Guest guest]

God bless you and your family, Linda! It sounds like

many of us have had devastating losses, accidents, and

sadness in our lives. We are learning about

forgiveness in very hard circumstances. I'm so glad

that you've had dream visits with your siblings. That

goes a long way to ease our minds and bless our

forgivenesses.

 

Blessings & love,

Claudia
