If you've ever found you're talking to yourself then you are in good company. A read of the Psalms and you'll find references to King David speaking to his soul.

I declare
"I declare I will choose faith over fear. I will meditate on what is positive and what is good about my situation. I will use my energy not to worry but to believe. Fear had no part in my life.

Overcome with nerves as he went to say his lines, he started to cry. It seemed likely he would have to leave the stage without being able to deliver… Continue reading Look and See
