There seems to be a number of people getting confused between the life of the soul and the life of the spirit. My earlier blog lays the groundwork for the understanding of the differences between the spiritual bodies and the physical bodies. Since the soul comprises higher and mental mind, voice,...

Providence & Prayer

After I had worked for a local IT company for a year, I decided that I would voluntarily resign in April 2004. I simply could not cope with the workload. I was exhausted and I needed to focus my dwindling energy reserves on my healing and make it a priority. One month later, in May, there was a... Sign in to see full entry.

Sexuality, a function of soul(spiritual), or body(physical)?

Some of you maybe fighting spiritual warfare right now, while others of you are only starting to get an idea of what this “struggle” actually entails. Some people think it is a battle of the mind, while others think it is more to do with the Christian's struggle against “sin”. The reality of... Sign in to see full entry.

Ever wonder what it means to be “holy”?

When I think of the word holiness and the connotations implied by it, many images come to mind.

Can anyone give me a good reason for continuing with my story...?

I appreciate the concern, but I have managed to do my own casting out thanks. After two years of "struggle" I am starting to feel better than ever. The church was of no help to me unfortunatly, so I decided to educate myself on the subject. There is an incredible amount of fear with this topic of... Sign in to see full entry.

Finally back home again

My restful holiday in spain was interrupted by night terrors and all kinds of awful dreams. There was no peace. Fear was reaching critical levels and I was experiencing these strange vibrations coming from the depths of the matrass. In another of these dreams, I was aware of myself running out of an...

The LOGOS vs the bible

There are some people out there who genuinely and wholeheartedly believe that the bible is "the word" and base their entire faith, upon it being the absolute and irrefutible light of truth. I found this today which is from 2005 and is quite interesting:... Sign in to see full entry.

What is God's true nature and what does he expects from us?

The true nature of God is unconditional love. God hates none of the creatures he has bought into being and that includes Satan. Every angel good or bad, every creature great and small. They were all perfect, as God don't make no junk. Since he foresaw everything from the beginning, he also was aware... Sign in to see full entry.

A nightmare like no other...

Within days of receiving the invite, my bags were packed and I was getting excited about the prospect of swimming and enjoying some September sunshine on the stunning beaches of Mallorca. I had only been there a couple of days. I seem to remember praying again one night, asking why I had this awful... Sign in to see full entry.

I hear "the voice"

Shortly after losing the permanent position I had worked so hard for, things went from bad to worse for me. My finances were running low and I was starting to lie awake at night wondering how I was going to get support. Had visions of standing in the welfare line, waiting for a cup of hot soup....
