Another Allegory?

So... doubting... Not a good thing? A very wise and godly man once said: ‎"Doubt is not always a sign that a man is wrong; it may be a sign that he is thinking."

Last week I mentioned thoughts of struggle, doubt and having a difficult time when I was in a prayer meeting. Other people around me seem to have the same when it gets mentioned. But nobody ever talks about it! I think that it’s wrong not to talk about it, how else can people pray for you and ask your friendship in praying for them?

But, back to the prayer meeting. Someone there told me:” Hey man, you just got to keep your faith in God.” And he is right by telling me that.
Then he said: “And don’t go to the ‘witch of Endor’!”

Al kinds of thoughts ran through my head, ending up in a blur of this:

The witch of Endor? What? Who is that? Is she in Lord of the rings? Narnia? Another Christian allegory I don’t know of yet? And I shouldn’t go to her! Ok… So wait a minute, is someone going to tell me that the next thing I have to do is go on the quest for the blue slippers so I can travel the green and purple road? Do I have to slay the dragon of Nosseghem with the double sided axe of Anguish? Confused.

Then someone explained to me that King Saul was looking for advise from God, didn’t get it right away and then went to the witch of Endor to, and this is the best part, raise the prophet Samuel from the dead and ask him for advise…

Uhhuh… pretty amazing right, and nope, I’m not making it up, it happened. Look it up in 1 Samuel 28.

But ok, I won’t go to the witch of Endor, I will keep my eyes on God, my heart on God and my walk in Gods ways. And not by my own strengths, they abandoned me long ago. I don’t know how, but I can depend on God’s strength! As soon as I depend on me, down I go.
