Another thing that always puzzled me is why prophets and seers are allowed to channel holy books and tell of Messiah's coming, but then we're told by churches that being psychic is demonic? It seems a bit contradictory to me. Every psychic I've ever met lost power over their visions if they weren't acting in highest good. Most of psychics I've met believe very deeply in a form of God or some sort of a higher magical loving guidance over us. They're visions into other side created that belief. There's nothing quite like chatting with All-Mighty to make a believer out of you. Isn't prayer in and of itself a form of telepathic psychic connection with other side?

It just seems to me that if we quit arguing over what words, labels, and names we give these concepts and quit arguing over methods of prayer and such that we'd see that we're all so much more alike then we are different. I've known three different Catholic men who fell in love with Buddhist faith because it so beautifully highlights teachings of Christ. I really believe that is what we're meant to do. All of holy books tell us to love one another. You can't truly love someone if you don't take time to really get to know them and what they stand for. Shouldn't we learn about each other from a place of love rather than from a place of judgement? Nobody can prove that anyone else's religion is wrong and nobody can prove that theirs is right. Too many translators over course of history to be able to be 100% sure about anything any more. We can't really assume that others are completely wrong and we can't assume that our own religion is completely right. Religion and God is so much more than we can fully understand at this time.

We went back to social hall, and I saved a place on my plate for that pecan pie. I approached dessert table, and stared with disbelief...no pecan pie in sight! I swallowed my disappointment, and still thanked God for good food I ate. However, I still wanted that pecan pie...just one slice.

Monday morning, I awoke, made some coffee and read my Bible. The scripture I read was Mark 11.24 ("Therefore I say unto you, what things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye shall receive them, and ye shall have them.") I had prayed for that slice of pecan pie and I was still looking for it.

I finished my reading and went to get in my truck to go to town. I opened door, and there, sitting on front seat, pretty as you please, was a whole fresh homemade pecan pie. As tears of gratitude to Lord formed in my eyes, Lord spoke to me and said, "See, you only desired a slice of pie but I can give you a whole one!" Thank God that He cares for and loves us so much.

This event happened almost 5 years ago. When I woke this morning, Lord had me write this true story. Bless God if today, same neighbor came by and gave me another whole pecan pie as I was writing! That is God's way of confirming that I should write in a book this wonderful true story.
