Rosemary's Blessing:

I shall no longer allow

negative thoughts or feelings

to drain me of my energy.

Instead I shall focus on all the

good that is in my life.

I will think it, feel it and speak it.

By doing so I will send out

vibes of positive energy into

the world and I shall be grateful

for all the wonderful things it

will attract into my life.

Positivity Pledge given to me by Sandra Pratt

in Jesus Christ you'll have all the strength necessary.
