From Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Christopher “Legends about the life and death of Saint Christopher first appeared in Greece in the 6th century and had spread to France by the 9th century. The 11th-century bishop and poet Walter of Speyer gave one version, but the most popular variations originated from the 13th-century Golden Legend. According to the legendary account of his life, Christopher was initially called Reprobus. He was a Canaanite, 5 cubits (7.5 feet (2.3 m)) tall and with a fearsome face. While serving the king of Canaan, he took it into his head to go and serve “the greatest king there was.” He went to the king who was reputed to be the greatest, but one day he saw the king cross himself at the mention of the devil. On thus learning that the king feared the devil, he departed to look for the devil. He came across a band of marauders, one of whom declared himself to be the devil, so Christopher decided to serve him. But when he saw his new master avoid a wayside cross and found out that the devil feared Christ, he left him and enquired from people where to find Christ. He met a hermit who instructed him in the Christian faith. Christopher asked him how he could serve Christ. When the hermit suggested fasting and prayer, Christopher replied that he was unable to perform that service. The hermit then suggested that because of his size and strength Christopher could serve Christ by assisting people to cross a dangerous river, where they were perishing in the attempt. The hermit promised that this service would be pleasing to Christ. After Christopher had performed this service for some time, a little child asked him to take him across the river. During the crossing, the river became swollen and the child seemed as heavy as lead, so much that Christopher could scarcely carry him and found himself in great difficulty. When he finally reached the other side, he said to the child: “You have put me in the greatest danger. I do not think the whole world could have been as heavy on my shoulders as you were.” The child replied: “You had on your shoulders not only the whole world but Him who made it. I am Christ your king, whom you are serving by this work.” The child then vanished. Christopher later visited Lycia and there comforted the Christians who were being martyred. Brought before the local king, he refused to sacrifice to the pagan gods. The king tried to win him by riches and by sending two beautiful women to tempt him. Christopher converted the women to Christianity, as he had already converted thousands in the city. The king ordered him to be killed. Various attempts failed, but finally Christopher was beheaded. Therefore, he is the patron saint of travelers, and small images of him are often worn around the neck, on a bracelet, carried in a pocket, or placed in vehicles by Christians.” Is the story of St. Christopher, as recounted in Wikipedia, accurate?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Religions529 views0 answers0 votesDoes a St. Christopher medal tucked in a glove box actually impart divine protection to the vehicle? Will its efficacy vary depending on the priest who blessed it? What if the priest blessed many at the same time?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Religions424 views0 answers0 votesIf St. Christopher medals really are effective, does the material they are constructed with make any difference? If a child in Sunday school were to draw a stick figure of St. Christopher and say a sincere prayer to St. Christopher that the drawing protect any and all who possess it, can that serve the same purpose and impart the same level of blessing and protection?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Religions406 views0 answers0 votesA practitioner asks: “What is plaguing my daughter? Is it a mental illness? Is there something wrong with me? What is my best strategy in this case? I feel totally lost. I cleared her so many times. You worked on her. Others worked on her. I know you cleared her many times, but maybe this time it would be the best time to work on her, since it’s so obvious now. And I need an advice on how to proceed in this situation. I don’t want to be in her presence anymore. But she is my child and I love her and I want to help her. Any input from you and Creator would be very, very, appreciated.” What can we tell her?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Spirit Meddlers330 views0 answers0 votesAbout 5 years ago, some time after our Cavalier King Charles spaniel, [name withheld], passed away, my wife dreamed of walking in our den and seeing [name withheld] and our then-living dog, [name withheld], sitting on the couch together. My wife greeted her enthusiastically but after a few moments, her image faded and disappeared. Was this just a wish-fulfillment dream, or was this a dream visitation by our dog’s spirit to put in an appearance?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness341 views0 answers0 votesMy wife just told me that [name withheld] in the dream she had 5 years ago had a longer snout than in real life, and looked just like the new dog, [name withheld], a Cavalier-miniature poodle mix, we got this year who you told us is [name withheld] reincarnated. The coat color and breed look are like a Cavalier, but [name withheld] has the longer poodle snout. Is there any significance in this dream detail?ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness362 views0 answers0 votesA practitioner asks: “What are the prospects that a Lightworker Healing Protocol would be effective in curing my client? She has had bone cancer for 10 years that steadily worsens and is reportedly near death at the present time.”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Lightworker Healing Protocol343 views0 answers0 votesA client asks: “In relation to a channeling about offering healing services, Creator shared … “We recommend that healers be compassionate but not to a fault. Their reach will lessen if they cannot show up to do the healing because they have not nourished or protected themselves, have not seen to their health and well-being, and often times do not have a normal life—which life to have balance, is best done with a partner and the full expression of physicality with a sexual relationship and with parenting of the young. This is a way to grow the self and explore as many possibilities as are available.” In many ways, I feel like I have failed and am a failure because I have not married, had a longer-term partner or had children. Have I failed? And if so – what can I do to remedy this and how do I avoid becoming overwhelmed with sadness and defeat in relation to this feeling of failure?”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Divine Guidance472 views0 answers0 votesA client asks: “I have stopped completely, taking photos of the orbs I asked you about, not giving them attention, although I have felt compelled to do so on several occasions.

And if it was the former, was this a ‘taste’ of God’s enormous capacity for love – and how can I feel and exude that beautiful, effortless love again?”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Creator432 views0 answers0 votesA client asks: “What I continue to struggle with and question (constantly!), is whether this ‘paradigm of existence – this ‘Creation’ (i.e. that God presumably created/allowed to be created), is a truly ‘loving’ one in and of itself … Much cruelty, pain, and suffering is occurring and the recipient is often/usually ‘in the dark’ as to why this is taking place … And this then creates a huge contradiction for me as to how a ‘loving’ God could create/allow to be created (what appears to be) a ‘non-loving’ paradigm. On one hand I ‘love’ the Divine, yet on the other, I’m hurt and furious with the Divine for letting me and so many suffer – it is a constant conflict for me and it is exhausting and heartbreaking. And even though there is ultimately the gift of healing (from the Divine) for that trauma – the truth is that the trauma still happened (and continues to happen) and God ‘allowed or allows’ it to happen by way of this paradigm that ‘God’ itself created. This is a true paradox for me to understand and accept. How could this loving God have allowed me and all of us, to experience such pain and suffering?”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Human Potential396 views0 answers0 votesA client asks: “During a particularly challenging time at work when I was seriously considering resigning (but didn’t know what other work I could or should do!), a colleague (a faithful Christian) shared with me that she had received a message from “God” in relation to me and the message (forgive my terrible memory) was along the lines that “whilst I was looking/searching … I wasn’t there yet.” Was this a Divine message, and if so, can you please expand on what it/you were trying to tell me?”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Divinely Inspired Messengers375 views0 answers0 votesA client asks: “Also, prior to this, another colleague who I had never met before, came up to me out of the blue at work and said that she thought I was “spiritual” and then also mentioned that she saw my “third eye wide open”- all of which was somewhat of a shock to me.

Suddenly I felt the presence of several beings around us. I felt they were very carefully listening to our prayers. It overwhelmed me and made me cry. I believed they were ancient divine beings; however, with all the manipulations/darkness going on in the earth plane, were they really divine beings? Did I sense this correctly? Can I truly trust what I felt?”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Prayer399 views0 answers0 votes
