I suspect this is supposed to be a distraction from the Epstein case.
If we're all laughing at a CEO's funny little blunder, we won't focus on all the wrongs the other politicians and CEOs still won't admit involvement in.
Ignore it. Demand release of the Epstein files. Demand justice for the victims.
Over the past week or so, God has been working some miracles in my life. These are very small miracles -- not raising the dead, or anything like that, but still understood as "miracles". To those who don't have discernment from the Holy Spirit, first, I advise you to ask for it. Second, I honestly don't know how to explain to you how it's so "obvious" that something is a miracle, versus a mundane event that happens to be good. Think of it like tasting food/drink with your eyes closed. You can still discern the flavor. It works similarly to that. In a manner of speaking, "miracles" and "mundane events" both have a "flavor", but only the Holy Spirit can give you the ability to "taste", not your literal tongue.
1) Moth
I was walking somewhere and I saw a moth. I tried to get a picture of it. After several minutes, I finally succeeded, but something else happened, too. The moth landed on my pants-leg and sat with me a couple minutes. This kind of thing just doesn't happen to me. Generally yes, animals do like me. People's dogs like to stop and ask me for pets. Typically skittish animals like deer or rabbits are slightly less skittish around me. But... I don't really know how to explain this. Any kind of wild creature interacting with me in such a "direct" way is very unusual. Whenever it does happen, it's always a sign that God is acting in my life somehow. For example, I probably wrote here at some point about a butterfly who kept flying in front of my face, keeping me from walking a certain path in the woods. I ignored it, walked on that path, and ended up with burrs all over my clothes. I'm not certain yet what the moth is supposed to tell me. I have ideas, but don't want to say them until I'm certain.
2) Store
I was walking somewhere else and had to go to a store. It was really hot and I needed a drink. I wasn't very familiar with that location. I seemed to remember in the past, walking to a certain point, then turning left. However, to turn left this day, I had to wait for traffic to stop so I could cross the street. Having nowhere to go (traffic is often very busy there), I decided to turn right instead, and walk that way for a minute. There was the store. If there wasn't traffic, and I had taken the left, I wouldn't have found the store and likely ended up lost and exhausted.
3) Nap
I wanted to do some indoor exercise. However, I started to feel tired. Things like this are pretty common, especially in early-mid afternoon, but this was different. The tiredness was a lot worse, like when one has a fever or something. So, as much as I hate to be "lazy", I decided it was best to lie down for awhile. Then I took a 3-hour nap, lol. I woke up fine. But it worked out for the best, because a thunderstorm was moving in. I'm not sure how common this is, but where I live, it's not really safe to shower during a thunderstorm, because there's a risk of lightning going through the pipes. So if I had exercised, I would've had to have spent the rest of the day being gross and sweaty.
Again, I'm aware these are very small miracles, but God is making it clear to me they are miracles. I wanted to document them here, both so that other people can read them and hopefully gain something from them, and also so that I have them recorded somewhere for future reference.
God bless you all and guide you according to His perfect will. In Jesus' name. Amen.
Today, I was sitting on a bench. I noticed something on the ground. It was some sort of plant matter, dried up and yellow/brown. Maybe a stem from a flower, maybe a blade of grass. Something vaguely like that; if I had to guess, a small blade of grass. It was detached from the ground and moving freely in the wind. I watched as it sat near a raised curb on the sidewalk. Several times, maybe 5, I watched as the wind pushed the grass to the edge of the curb, even over the edge so it should've fallen onto the street, and then as the wind pushed it back up onto the sidewalk.
I realized this was a sign from God. (The way I know this is abstract and difficult to explain. I guess I could describe it as, "God Himself puts the idea in my head", similar to how one's eyes put the idea of depth or color into one's head.) The grass represented me, and all those who struggle, but keep their faith in the Lord. The edge of the curb, and the street below, represented things we fear. The first wind represented life's troubles. Like the first wind, life's troubles threaten to push us over the edge, leaving us hopeless and abandoned. Sometimes like the grass, we can even be in free-fall, hanging over the edge of the cliff, with nothing to hold onto.
The second wind, that pushed the grass back up to "safety", represented God. In this state of free-fall, where logically, everything should be hopeless and doomed, God is still able to do the impossible, and move us back to safety.
That last part is the core message: God does not forsake us, even in times where it seems we're hopelessly falling, and nothing can stop it. God is still with us during these difficult times, and can still work miracles that are impossible to our logic. (And now that I think about it, God has done this many times in my life. There's no way I should be alive today. I should have died 100 times over by now, but God expertly worked through the tangled mess of life, and carefully kept me alive, while ensuring I learned something from each hardship. This isn't something exclusive to me - it's available to every person reading this. Turn to Him (God/Father, Jesus/Son, Holy Spirit) and humbly open your life and soul to Him, and He will give you just the same as He has given to me.)
God then told me to write about the experience, and post it here, with its meaning.
