This week it was hard

to keep from smiling. :) We've been so blessed to be here in Lisburn together. We've seen so much success, and really enjoy serving together! 

Since last time I've written, we've had some massively spiritual lessons - some with a Figian man with a huge spiritual background - it's great seeing God's hand in the work, and feeling him work through us to help him come closer to His presence. 

I had a cool realization, in talking with another member. 

What prompted a really memorable answer to a prayer was my question: how is it possible for there to be a next life? I didn't see how it could be. I asked God if He were even there, and got an answer. 

At the start of my mission, I really wanted to see spirits and the like - physical manifestations of a life after, but I've changed. This member actually asked God to stop showing him the other side. Satan's power is real, and I know that it's not something I want to associate myself with. It may look powerful through physical eyes, and in the physical world, it is powerful. But beings with a body will always have more power than a being without one - that's why Jesus took up a perfected, glorified body! 

The problem is when we try to sever our spirits from our bodies - when we rebel against the Light of Christ in us, it leaves us weak. I have felt this, and know it to be true. Sin leaves us weak. That is why so many sorcerers and spiritualist people go after it, because they see the spirit being stronger than the body - and it is, if the body rejects light. That gives Satan power. Conversely, accepting and working towards light - when spirit and body work together - we have infinite more power than that of Satan and his devils. 

That's really the goal of life - bring the flesh into subjection to the spirit - because in this there is power, when flesh and spirit work as one. 

Like the red and blue 2d images of a 3d movie (okay, that's a bit old, but bear with me) the glasses make the image 3d, but the red and blue are sort of fighting each other w/o the glasses. When they work as one, it's powerful. It's a higher dimension! When they're separate, it's just a headache. 

That was a bit long, but it's true. :)

Love you all! Cheers!
