It's just been a bit slow here on the forum for a while.
Maybe something here might better help answer your question -

Thank you Searchinmyroots
That link is very helpful. From an article “Kingdom of Priests” by Tali Loewenthal, it seems that his work with me is spot on. I tried to quote the relevant bit but it didn’t work.
This leaves me in a little bit of a pickle, for after two decades of trying, and failing (to the best of my knowledge) to make our world a better place, I am ready to back away and let others try. But now I understand better why he has high hopes for me.
I feel close/connected to God, and he tells me that I have a lot of support ‘up there’. I now understand better why he is able to tell me such things with calm authority. Thank you Searchinmyroots.
So, the big question that I am taking a break (he says typing here) from the Internet, to reflect upon: do I simply accept I gave it my best shot and hope someone else steps up (my preferred option), or do I, as he might write, ‘grasp my spiritual authority’ and drive forwards/plod on? (There must be better qualified people out there than me). Twenty years ago I was champing at the bit, but nowadays I really (in any remotely realistic way) don’t see how I could make any sort of positive difference. I know that either way God is happy that I have done enough (that was confirmed to me in my NDE).
Enough blabbering, I need to get back to reflecting. Thanks again Searchinmyroots.
