The Veil....

This blog is just for my own thoughts so I don’t know why I don’t write when I think I have nothing profound to say. I occasionally have interesting thoughts, but very rarely are they profound. SO…..that said. I have been learning so much in our In The Light service or should I say re-learning. We have been discussing prayer and the many ways to pray and what is prayer and how are we to ‘work’ it. The one thing I was taught to fear upon my conversion to Christianity was anything remotely ‘occultish’. Now this was construed as anything to do with meditation, healing touch as opposed to laying on of hands, and the like. For my entire life I have had the touch. IN certain situations I can touch a person and feel their pain or their power. Their life force if you will. When I meditate I can calm my crazy center. The two things that are gifts to me I was taught were evil tools of the devil. I really couldn’t find this in scripture anywhere, but it had to be true, right?
David said he meditated on the word. Christ felt power go out from Him when the woman with issue of blood touched Him. So why am I any different than them, besides the fact that I am not GodJ? I believe that through and with the Spirit we can do the things that Jesus did. I can feel when I touch someone ill that something has gone out of me. That ‘this talent’ didn’t go away when I decided to follow the Way of Jesus so now I have decided that it is a gift just like any other that I must try to figure out how to use. We are not given gifts that we should ignore them. It’s just one of those confusing situations God puts us in. It might not be today and it might not be tomorrow, but one day I’ll figure it out.
As for the meditation, I have found that comfort and calm come when I use a mantra. It stops my mind from wandering and I am able to achieve a connection with the other side of the veil. I am able to see/visualize the supernatural. I know it sounds crazy. Even I think it’s out there, but all I can say is I am praying for a man in the South Pacific because I saw him while I was praying one morning. I don’t know who he is. I don’t know exactly what island he is on. I don’t know what he does for a living or why he is praying all I know is that he needs prayer. And so I pray. I know in my heart that no one is praying for this man or at least very few people are and I was directed to him. Let me tell my story of how this came about.
Steve, The Pastor Man, has been touched in his heart to pray for the world. He gave us the example of how he uses the visualization of Google Earth to pray for certain parts of the world. Anywhere he wants to pray for he sees in his minds eye and he travels there in his mind and prays over that place. In this same way he will see a person in his mind and he will do the same thing as they come before him. So I have been doing this and the first time I did it I could actually see the things and places that were being prayed for. I could see the light shining down on whatever or wherever it was that was being prayed for. I was taken from place to place very quickly to be shown that people are praying over Washington, Iraq, Africa and other places. I was going so quickly that I was trying to tell the being with me to slow down. The being. No I don’t know what or who or if it was an angel. If I had to guess I would say it was an angel of some kind, my guide if you will. I can hear the comments now… “She has a Spirit Guide! EVIL!” No, how else am I to know who God would have me pray for than to guide me there? I didn’t see anyone and no one spoke to me. I just knew that someone/thing was leading me. ANYWAY, I was seeing the light of prayer around all of these places and I was only at each for seconds it seemed until I was lead to this Island in SP. There was a man on his knees deep in prayer and there was no one else praying for/with him. There were no ‘prayer lights’ around him for lack of a better way to describe it, so I prayed. I still pray for a man across the world that I don’t know anything about. He might be a missionary. He might be a minister of some sort. All I do know with all of my heart is that he needs prayer. And so I pray. Kandis Glasgow
