    I was baptised at 7 but my home life was difficult and I strayed as a teen. I have struggled with doubts ever since. I have been praying and prayed over time and time again with every reason to be closer in my faith yet I feel farther and farther and farther away. My life and usefulness wasting away the older I get (51).
    Went back to church 25 years ago stopped during the pandemic due to immunosuppression from transplant drugs. My life has been full of blessings yet my soul is in a constant battle. I know my personality and history and mental health make me inclined to distrust and fear of intimacy. It will take a miracle for me to overcome. My hope is withering as there are so many reasons for me to blfeel sold out yet I am plagued by an evil voice of "but what abouts?"

    SEPT 2024. Thanks for this recipe Sara, I made two batches today for the freezer. I did add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to each batch to see if it would keep it from going brown right away. There are many recipes on the internet but I trust you so it is the one I have copied and saved for future basil harvests. I live in Alberta Canada so my growing season is short and I do not have a green house but managed to use basil all summer in my salads and then let it alone to get a nice big harvest for pesto. I used the Genovese Basil this year and it was the best basil I have ever grown where I live. 🌷
