“What we need to do is pray harder.”—Juan O Savin A minister once told me he doesn’t feel comfortable praying for people. I asked him why. He said if he’s asked to pray for someone who is sick, they sometimes get better, but sometimes they get worse, and sometimes they even die. I told him I’m going to move away from you right now and please, please don’t pray for me.
Funny and biting as usual. I believe that organized religion has often worked against faith in God. They've probably created almost as many atheists and agnostics as our lunatic culture.
I have not stepped foot in a church since I was 'saved' at age 13 or so; I felt Jesus come into my heart...no joke. That being said, I quickly realized that churches are fake, fake, and fake. However, the tenets found in the Bible are wholesome and just rules for conducting your life. Rules that people seem to have forgotten or never learned.
I have had a similiar encounter with something ominous...something that laid over me heavily and threatened to smother me. (And no, it was not a former husband!) It got so bad at times, I would be afraid to go to sleep. It vanished the night I screamed "God help me" in my head. That was over 12 years ago. Did God really help me or did I come to realize that I was allowing this thing to haunt me?
I think you're over the 🎯. We have all the power we need in our own hands.
so I have been praying harder.. which is exactly how it does not work... God already knows what is needed. This weekend.. and who knows maybe I will post the Trojan virus that shut down my new laptop .. now eliminated: I am not Janis Joplin... though I did have the privilege of actually seeing her perform w/ Big Brother and the Holding Company singing LORD WON'T you buy me a MERCEDES BENZ as she waved a bottle of Southern Comfort in the air.. ) I had my first epiphany then... for sure.. anyway. I am still praying that the LORD will make my computer work. don't worry I won't.. having enough of my own sober conversations.. ) take care.. installing another virus scan now...........isabella
Excellent writing, or even righting.
For some reason all I could think of is a young man was asked what he wanted to be when he grew up.
Without a moment of thought he said, " I want to be assassinated by my Government. That way I would know my life meant something."
An especially good Report.

A near-death experience that also states that evil only exists in the lower realms, and in your lower experiences, not in your higher self at all:
