What a big day. My day started at 20 past 5 this morning. For anyone who knows at all will understand how impressive it was that I actually willingly arose from the insulation of my warm, toasty blanket and in to crisp, cold clothing before going outside at 6am to head off to pick up my wonderful Sarah from the airport. Traffic wasn’t too bad, I managed to arrive pretty much on time so that she wasn’t kept waiting for long.
It’s so good to be around faithful people. Maybe before the end of the next week, Sarah will do a guestblog. She has one of the most amazing testimonies in the world. (I have linked her site, actually above)
A friend loaned me this book that I am reading at the moment which I am finding pretty heavy, but also very interesting. I had a previous fear of the devil, and in fact – to even think about, I got scared. I realised that there is actually a great danger in fearing him because he preys upon fear.
This book has been really informative in helping me understand that no one has authority over the Lord Jesus Christ, not even the strongest of dark forces. All buckle under the His most High name. It is also a really interesting book from what I have read thusfar. I really need to finish it fast, because my friend has been asking for it back. Eep, I’m a bit lazy when it comes to reading faith books.
I will write more about it when I am finished reading it, because I am sure that there will be a lot more to say. One thing I did find very interesting was the subject about spirits. I know a lot of people (even close family members) who believe in ghosts and spirits of the past coming back to confirm things for them and more… This book addresses the issue with that. Amorth said that ghosts are never what you think they are. For instance, your distant cousin Rita coming from the beyond to tell you not to forget to polish your shoes on wednesday isn’t actually her. Bad spirits, demons if you will, moonlight as something positive to reinforce a beings belief in the occult or fall in to a trap of vulnerability that can and will work to the devil’s advantage.
Every day is a school day.
Leaving you with that heavy thought, I am off to get some sleep. It’s 10:30pm and this is usually like dusk for me. I am working on a much better sleeping pattern. I have some data entry to do tomorrow, so I want to get as much rest as I can. Oh and also? I cleaned my room. Just gotta tidy up a bit more in the morning, but at least my bed now has clean sheets and I can see my carpet.
God bless you, friends. 
P.S — I went to a Stevie Wonder concert on Monday night with my friend and it was freaking brilliant. He is a fantastic entertainer and so amazingly blessed with such an abundance of talent. He was really clever in wit and funny as well. He put on a great show. My only complaint was that it had a very political slant (and these days I don’t consider myself to be largely political) which I didn’t like at all. Otherwise, he was fantastic.
P.P.S — I added a new page. Daily Prayers … Also, I am working on my testimony still. Work in progress, I think!
