ok...wheres your proof of god? he's not physical if he even exists at all. I do use my powers to help people i heal my friends...i just do it in private so everyone wont be all like "oh my goodness heal me! heal me!" and no not because it i get drained because i don't want to be called a fraud if i cant heal somebody, my friends dont jugde me and even the occasional teacher i have healed do not judge me but strangers do. It's hard when you first learn ur abilites (which i am a beginner) to be able to use ur abilties all the time especially when u know someone is judging u and dont believe u and then u get nervous because u feel doubly pressured to do it and u cant get into that "zone" because ur sooo nervous and it all falls apart. I use empathy to help friends with their problems and no one can see me use that. The truth is we dont know why god gave us these abilites but he did, do u know why youre here on earth? no u dont. just like we dont know why we have these abilites. Do u have AIM?
Good for you, Psibear!
As for you KNightneir...
All of our gifts come from God, but God councils us to rest as well (see 10 commandments).
So for instance if... *pulling a name out of my hat" Beyonce, chooses to go on hiatus so her voice doesn't go hoarse, and she can honor and preserve the obvious gift she has been given from God to sing, it would be considered wise, and not a hoarding of what God has given her, but respect for what God has given her...
So your argument I fear, if not well-thought out.
As for your unfortunate experiences with readers, or so called readers... I dunno who you went to.
I know plenty who can give a cold read with no info.
If you are sitting in these sessions however, deliberately making it hard for a reader, and not admitting when they are right, then you are not there to test them but to rebel, and who has time for that?
You either believe or you don't.
DivineDimension on keen.com, can do cold reads with no info...
to name one, but she's expensive so, I don't get read by her any longer.
Kasamba.com has a few...Post a request on the board, and if you aren't rude about it, and say that you want to be sure the person you hire is psychic, and would like them to describe something to you that you already know the answer to, there are a few who will.
There are of course complete fakes. I've spoken with them and given many of them the dial tone. Those types are obviously trying to make money, with lies, and shame on them for it.
You can tell a complete fake because they are as trite and general as they come.
Too bad the bad apples cast a negative shadow on the rest of the bunch... But oh well.
Those that believe will get the help they need, period.
Like attracts like oftentimes, so if you believe psychics are fake, you will have your self-fulfilling prophecy and select psychics who are fake, I am sure...
*shrugs*
I hope you find one who can enlighten you, if that's what you are seeking beneath the sarcastic, and disbelieving exterior...
And have a nice day. I think you need one.
Yes...that's sarcasm, but underneath it all, I have compassion for you.
You seem to just be angry, and anger sucks. It doesn't feel good.
I hope your heart heals (no sarcasm there), and you you can get some light in your life, because walking around in darkness after awhile can be a very hard experience.
We have all been there at one point or another, and it can be hard to snap out of without Divine assistance.
Consequently, I have also said a little prayer for you.
(No I'm not a bible-toter) but God is there, and well... why not do some well-wishing for you.
I see your negativity as a cry for help.
Love&Light
