I like to go on walks and just be with him you know just talk to him and one time I saw an ant carrying a leaf to an ant hill and I saw it was struggling so I picked the leaf up and brought to the ant hill for it. What God spoke to me from one instance was that this ant and the leaf represented us and me picking it up and carrying the leaf for it was representing him.

See he spoke to me that instead of trying to carry heavy burdens ourselves even as strong as we are if we just let him do it instead then he will carry it to where we need it also that perspective is vastly different from ours to his. See I know and see the world vastly almost infinitately different than that tiny ant. I know the world is massive huge enourmous and even then there is the galaxies and dimensions and universes far beyond that planets and stars ect. but that small area where the ant was even the grass that towers over the tiny ant well that is it's entire world it has no concept of how tiny it truly is

Yet me being a towering massive gently cared anough for it to help it carry that heavy leaf to the ant hill. This is how it is for him and us

I get that. When I was a child, I would think that God had made many of those worlds within worlds and how there's someone like me in the middle of a story helping another microworld, and something greater is doing that same thing for us. That is how our creator made us to be, I think, like him. :thumbsupx1

You know sometimes I wonder about the idea of how there are many differnet dimensions and timelines. Like what if in one future instead of me doing one thing I actually did another or say one time a hammer dropped from my hand and in this reality it didn't land on my toe but in other it did

I don't know how much truth there is to such an idea scientist have pondered it for ages and some have actually supposedly proven there rae in fact other dimensions that reside in this world and reality I have only been to one dimension outside this one and that is the spiritual realm

The spiritual real is both interesting and very dangerous. You know how in this reality your brain works out what is the best decision to make before you act? or how your thinking influences how you react to something? Well in the spiritual realm that doesn't happen you don't even feel your brain working things out you just act and react on what is already in your heart

For instance the last time I was there I met satan I have met him many times actually and he even called me out by name so he knows who I am.
Anyways he was actually attacking me this time not physically but bombarding me with utter terror and a horribly dark presence tried to over take me my soul would have been consumned by the darkness but even in that terror and presence I said to him my Lord is going to win and you are going to lose suddenly he and the darkness was banished from me and I entered into a door of some kind not a physical one but one of spiritual essence and suddenly I entered into this room this griant library with the so many books I couldn't count them these book had the lives of every person who was and is and is to come and every deatial of them and their lives Jesus was there and pulled out my book and after reading it for a bit he told me something that shocked me.

He said I was strong warrior but not just strong but fiery strong. I have always considered myself to be weak and lower than the dirt that even worms won't eat so hearing this shocked me quite a bit then he showed me a mirror and this mirror lead back to the real world he wanted me to go through but I begged him to let me stay and be with him he hugged me and whispeed I need you to stay strong for me I was in tears but he gently lead me to the mirror and when I looked back him he was just smiling and I went through the mirror suddenly my soul returned to my body and I was gasping for breath but the expeience was smething I have never had before

The thing is I have been there several times and many might consider this to be an amazing experience to have but it comes with dangers you are in the spiritual realm so demons and even satan can affest and hurt you in ways they can't here there are realms of darkness and of light but you yourself just act and react on what is inside you your faith and your heart decides what you do not what you think or even what you believe what is set in stone in you is what will come forth in that place
