Today’s story is freaky stuff. And I’m always amazed at the fact that Neil takes it all in stride – makes perfect sense to him, right?
The story makes me wonder, though… Neil probably sees stories like Christy’s all the time, partly because he knows what he’s looking for.
Have there been people I’ve run across, maybe even been friends with, who have suffered like Christy, and I never knew?
How prevalent is occult practice? There was a house on my street when I was growing up that all the kids avoided because we all knew a witch lived there… It seems like there’s one in every neighborhood, right? When I was a little older, I figured it was part of kid mythology (we need bad guys, right?), but what if it wasn’t make-believe?
And Santa Cruz, where I went to college for two years (Bethany Bible College), is nearby one of the known witchcraft capitals of the United States.
I suppose how much and where aren’t as important to me as who… I need to be open to the Holy Spirit and willing to ask the questions He tells me to. With a heart of compassion, Jesus came to set free those in bondage. That’s what He calls me to do, too.
