Yes to this!

BUT after living in the Amazon jungle for five years, I will say that this is true HERE in the US of A because our demons are “pretty” (title of a blog I wrote about this very thing actually). Evil loves to look clean, comfortable, and convenient in the States because then we don’t see it to fight against it. It’s the ease of life, the “freedom” that desensitizes us and the enemy LOVES it.

But overseas in many other cultures, it is very much tangible and seen with the naked eye in what we may think of as “traditional” evil (scary and in the dark). Every single person in my family (down to my at the time ten month old daughter) have physically seen and felt and experienced evil in a completely different way that we ever have or do in the US where it is very much like you described here.

My husband once attended a meeting with witch doctors and Christian pastors. One of the tribal chiefs literally told the pastor speaking that unless he could physically see his God like this man could see his “gods”, he wasn’t interested in what he had to say. 😬 (awkward silence from the Pastor who didn’t know what to do with that!)

Just wanted to add that because darkness and evil does present differently in different parts of the world where the cultures and struggles and temptations are different than ours 💚 I lived and experienced evil in ways I wouldn’t have believed were real had I not experienced it first hand overseas. Now I will pretty much believe anything 😅

But yes to the fact that we love to be distracted from real evil in the US by vilifying benign cultural practices or people like Taylor Swift while pastors are having affairs with their secretaries and then preaching from the pulpit on Sunday 🙄🫠

This is gold. As always. It’s speaking into a situation that I needed clarity about, so thank you again.

Also. Was it Matthew 13:36 you meant to quote, because it says : “then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him saying, “ explain clearly to us the parable of the weeds in the field”.”

I’m with the disciples here need some help with this one if you did mean to quote this scripture 😬

I hope you have the most fabulous time with your bestie and TS 🥰
