How Does God See You?

How does God see you? Does He like what He sees? Can I tell you He loves you 100% and loves everything about you? He loves all your annoying habits, He loves those extra pounds you have gained, and He loves you when you falter. Basically, He loves you. As a new creature in Christ when God looks at you He sees you as being redeemed.

CEROMANCY: The Fine Art of Candle Reading

Lately, I have been asked a lot of questions in the Psychic Realm chatroom about “ceromancy”. That is the fine art of reading a situation by studying the way a candle burns. Are the flames leaping high? Is the wax sizzling and crackling and popping? What does it mean when the flame goes out?

Many people in the Realm over the last year have become avid candle-burners and realized quite instinctively that the way a candle is behaving is often a mirror of the situation as it presently exists and its outcome.

Are You Homeless? Does Your Soul Have a Home?

How do you feel when you see homeless people on the street? Many of us feel disgusted when we look at them and others do not even acknowledge their existence as if they’re worthless and irrelevant. Some of us even consider them as being nothing but drunks and junkies. We all have different ways of interpreting the lives of these people, but in the end, we all believe that they are less fortunate than ourselves.

Are You Following Your Knows Or Your I Dont Knows?

We have all heard the phrase, “follow your nose”. This means to keep your direction straight and you will find the way you are going. If following the nose on our face gives us the proper direction, then doesn’t it make perfect sense to follow our “knows”? When we “know” something, that means we have assurance of the outcome.

Christian Love

Actually, loving does not take any great effort on our part because it is not something we must put forth great effort to achieve. When God enters our heart, soul, and mind, love is spontaneously produced because He is love. It is a spiritual attainment. It is the result of a cause and the cause is this: God loved us first (1 John 4:19).

Be Aware of the Supreme Deceiver (Part 1)

One cannot read the account of Benhadad and Hazael in God’s word not be overcome by a certain sense of sadness. You recall Benhadad was ill and sent Hazael to the prophet Elisha to make inquiries regarding his recovery. Elisha told Hazael that Benhadad would not die from his illness, but that he would nevertheless, die.

The Slippery Halls of Perspective.

As we walk these halls of Life viewing the world and ourselves through our limited and often times limiting perspectives, who can really fathom the depth of another? Didn’t we all at one time believe in Santa Clause? Didn’t we all believe at one time, that when we closed our eyes we disappeared? Didn’t we all used to believe we were the center of the world? Where did those perspectives go? Are we now sure that we have it ‘really right’, or are we still clutching at temporary viewpoints and transient opinions, unknowingly defending mirages? Who can really judge who sees clearly? Who can really say who is deluded? Who is really in touch with reality? Perspectives change and for the most part do not belong to us, but rather happen to us.

To Praise Him is to Love Him; to Love Him is to Obey His Commands

Some say praising Jesus is just singing. Others say it a combination of many things. Let’s see what the Bible say. In the book of Exdous 15:1-3 it says Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the Lord: I will sing to the Lord for he is highly exalted.

The Divine Self

Many look outside of themselves for an experience of the Divine. Many turn to religions. Others invoke “inner guides” or a “higher self”. I would like to propose that the Divine is not only inside you, it is You!

Now I know that some may squirm at this idea. Others will be skeptical.

Quick! Throw Me A Line!

I was reminiscing with a friend recently about his ‘dark night of the soul’ that he’d just experienced. During his pain, he turned his back on God. Raised in a traditional Catholic family he found himself very angry at God and at the church during an especially ugly divorce and custody battle.
