What Others are Saying about You Matter!
Jesus is a fraud. For a long time I had convinced myself these were all tests of my will. I believed in that sentiment whole-heartedly. Nowadays, “God” plays cruel jokes on me, with no rhyme or reason. God mocks me, in ways that I can’t possibly grow from. He’s literally jabbed at my own own self-esteem that was already dangerously low. As I am a sufferer of anxiety/panic disorder (Not the “OMG i’m like feeling so much anxiety right now…” assholes,) that believe it to be a minor disability that it’s cool to play pretend. Nay, the I’m having a panic attack and if I don’t call the ambulance on myself I will in fact “DIE” here and now. Ironically nowadays I pray(tongue in cheek) for death. I am not saying there is no God, I am simply stating God is cruel without any of this “so called” mercy we hear so much about in church, as well as in the Bible. God is merciless. God takes pleasure in seeing me suffer. Tell yourself “It’s a test” all you like. When you give someone a mental disorder then humiliate said person over and over and over again ad-nauseum, to a “creation” that he knew he’d created with a mental disorder as their “major obstacle” only to mock and humiliate that person with an empty tank of self-esteem.. well tell me.. what do you think that person should think? I think if God ‘in all his infinite wisdom’ he should be good to us, at least occasionally. I’m living a hell that has no end in sight. To the point where I cannot even forsee an “eternal hell” that is worse. I won’t go into too much detail of my personal life, what’s left of it. But I’ve come to the conclusion that there can be no faith, without hope. And there can be no hope, without light at the end of the tunnel. If God is supposed to be that light, I choose to stay in the dark which at least brings me comfort. God will not give me the happiness in this lifetime that I seek. A malevolent God? Who wants to have faith in such a being? Or rather why? God reminds me of the kid in Toy Story, the neighbor kid who blows up his sister’s barbie dolls for the sh*ts and giggles. Only difference is he is doing that to me, whilst I sung his praises regularly and defended his “righteousness” at every turn. I’m done with the ungrateful POS. And rightfully so. Good people suffer, evil people prosper. Time and time again. I do not wish to be evil. But I do not need God to have a moral compass. And I certainly don’t need his torture.

2014: At 3AM up in Alaska A voice shouted in my room “I am the way, the truth and the life, no man comes to the father except by me.” I woke up TERRIFIED and hid beneath my covers. Finally got the courage to look out and nobody was there. Then the whitest light I’d ever seen flooded my room immediately for a few seconds. It faded and there stood an Angel at the foot of my bed. Tall as a door but wider than a door! Its skin was BLACK (not brown) literally black. Not an earthly black, black like the cosmos! A living, vibrant, otherworldly BLACK. A garment of light covered its entire head and its pants were also light. It had a ten inch dagger strapped around its thigh in a golden sheath with patterns. It moved from the foot of my bed to right beside me in quantum speed and held its hand out over me. It’s hand spanned from my hip to my shoulder! I didn’t know if it was good or evil and was worried it would attack me but I couldn’t move. My body was trembling with fright. Some seconds later I realized it wasn’t evil and then it became transparent! I could look through it at the wall and then it vanished POOF! I don’t have to “believe” because I KNOW angels are among us!
I do!

😥 I'm a 61 yr old 100% disabled USMC veteran, hence my YT name. Desert Rose. 10 August 1990, my squadron got the oder to gear up! We're going to Iraq. I hadn't remembered the 3 man s3xual attack in the shower for 29 years. But! I broke when I receiv3d a death threat whispered in my ear from behind me. It was a corporal that had been given free rein to verbally, mentally, and eventually orchestrated that sexual attack. I remembered the "rest of the story" in that bathroom with no lock on the door until AFTER I won my VA disability claim. Like movie clips playing in my head. Just awful. A psychiatrist explained that my brain finally felt SAFE enough to allow me to remember "the rest of the story". That happened 33 years ago. I STRUGGLE to forgive those men! 😭 I do! Thank you for your video! Someday ... I'm going to share my story here on YT. Maybe it will help me with closure. And eventually, forgiveness. Thank you for your message!
Hi! ❤New subscriber here! You dropped into my morning feed with your "Do you believe in angels". LOVED it! When I felt deep in my heart that my husband, of 34 years, and I met a very tall, this, frail homeless woman outside of the gas station, I felt we needed to help her. She was dirty & wearing a horrible wig. And it was Carolina HOT outside. I gave her a few dollars & asked if she needed a ride somewhere. She did. And we did. We were scared, just like you were. But, we git her where she wanted to go. The air-conditioned mall. We never saw her at the gasstation again. I pray she's still alive & doing better.❤
Angels are more real than we are, but why would an angel need a Bible?
I think it was more of a lesson in obedience that an angel took part in. The angel didn't need anything, the angel was just playing the role.
This absolutely happened, in just this way, no embellishment or exaggeration. It was also before cellphones. My country hick family was in a city that we were not familiar with. We had a very special appointment at a church that we came to town the day before to attend. The weather unexpectedly turned during our journey to the city, which delayed our arrival at the hotel. Our reservation was given away, and we had to stumble around for two hours looking for a vacant room. Once we were able to get checked in, it was late. I asked for a wakeup call, but once in the room, I called to confirm the wakeup call. I also set the room clock and my watch alarm for the same time. 3 alarm failures later, we were desperately trying to get to the church. Not having any time to spare, I asked the motel desk attendant directions to the church he said he was familiar with. Unbeknownst to me, he gave me incorrect directions and was sending me in the opposite direction. While on the road, I made eye contact with a disheveled haggard looking young man standing beside a pay phone. Without any plausible reason, I slammed on the brakes and turned into this pawnshop parking lot. My husband freaked out and did not want me to get out of the van, my 4 small children watching wide-eyed in the back while I dissolve into tears. Without hesitation, I stepped out and over to the pay phone, nodded self consciously at the young man, and lifted the phone and listened a moment to the dial tone. Truth was, I didn't have any phone number to call, and I knew it. After about taking a moment to pray for inspiration, all I could do was stare dumbly at the number pad. Then a voice broke through my despair. There was nothing angelic or distinct about his voice, but I felt every word. "Where do you want to be?", the voice said. Exactly in these words. Lifting the earpiece from where it rested against my forehead, I sadly whispered the name of the minister that was going to officiate over the baptism of my family. To my absolute wonder, the man said, "Would you accept my directions?" My eyes scanned this stranger, and I instantly knew. Without hesitation, I grabbed him up in a hug and thanked him. With a kind smile, he reassured my husband, that was now putting himself between me and this stranger. "I work at the church, and I know a short cut from here. You can still get there in time." I laughed and asked if he wanted to drive. He shook his head and rested his hand on my husband's shoulder and said "He can take it from here." The directions were clear and precise, and with a final hug of gratitude from me, we were on our way. My husband always refused to drive in city environments, but not this time. To my surprise, he didn't say a word. Instead, we smiled and asked me if that really just happened. 5 minutes later we turn tearfully into the parking lot, with absolute certainty that the darkness that had been an obstacle the entire journey was completely lifted. To this day, we humbly know.
If he did not matter to God, he would not be here to tell that story.
Amen!!❤️
I believe. In 1980 I was in ICU near death. I opened my eyes and there was a Nun sitting with me. I asked her “Is my leg still there?” She looked me up and down and nodded yes. No words did she speak. Next time I woke up she wasn’t there I asked the nurse how can I get her to visit me again. I thought she was from the hospitals chapel. The nurse replied “no one has been here and I’ve been here all day taking care of you. You are not yet permitted outside visitors except your sister. I still remember the Nuns face and she visits me in my dreams - always helping me. So yes, I believe.
Amen! I have recently realized that it is important for me to have compassion for myself as well as others. I can't give away what I do not have. I thank you, Brother Dean, for your faithfulness to your heavenly calling.
Amen! God bless you!
God bless you Dean
