Feelings and Dealings... 3/24

Saturday we went to a town about an hour away to visit a predominant music store. Afterwards we hit the mall, one of the stores we often visit because it has a lot of natural items and your not the run of the mill items in it, after visiting it this time and and after delving deeper and deeper into the scriptures I don't feel so well about going into these kind of places anymore. My back ground from the 15+ years of the occult lends me to have knowledge of some things that others just don't see and that armed with new scriptures on a daily basis also fully arms me with lots of ammo of what is going on in the world.

Some of the things I'm talking about is the ability to hold something and gain knowledge of a previous user of the item or just plain and simply get the feeling from objects.. most notably stones and or things used for ceremonial uses and scents.. when I go places like the naturals store, I am very careful to not touch any of the stones or anything that is typically used for alters or magick because I feel the vibe that certain items cast off.. stones are real difficult for me.. I used to use them a lot in magick so it kind of follows me a bit ... I hate having knowledge of things some times but it happens.

We have been reading from Colossians and it talks about wearing the clothes of new man and that the old man is gone... well it seems that my old man likes to show up some times and mess with me just a little.. soo hard to deal with some times but I have faith that God will keep me free from it...

Things To Be Thinking About....

For some time I have pondered on life.. I have always wanted just a simple life.. a life where I grow my own food and work the land with no worries... I know, sounds too good to be true right?? No its not! I've never really needed much through my life and I find that we as humans really don't need much. God says that he will provide and Jesus re-enforces that again in Matthew 6:25-34... Jesus is not going to lie to us..  perhaps the Amish have it kinda right, in that if we were to be back that way perhaps we or at least I would take more time to worship God as I should. I know the first year out in 2010 for me as we lived in the land it was simpler and I felt that freedom, I relied more on God in a since and wish I could have stayed out there like that... it had to come to an end though or did it..

Verse
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?
26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?
27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?
28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin.
29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.
30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith?
31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’
32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.
33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. - Matthew 6:25-34 (NIV)
