A post on Facebook about Psychics reminded me of the one time I had my palm read. I was in college, and ignorant of the spiritual implications of soothsayers. One of my fellow students claimed the ability to read plams and was reading everyone in sight. Most got a cute little diagnosis, but when she grabbed my left hand she became dramatically still. "I don't want to read yours..." she stated with great trepidation. Which of course made her seem so much more genuine. Naturally we all insisted she continue and she did so with heavy drama. She said I would never be able to have children. I would try and try and never be able to conceive. After many years, I would be given a small girl with curly brown hair to ease my pain.
Of course I scoffed it off. But then 3 years passed of fruitless trying to get pregnant. I began to wonder if she really had that gift. Over time I had 9 pregnancies which resulted in 3 miscarriages and 6 healthy babies. I've often wished I could show her my beautiful HojoCircus SIX! The last one did come with beautiful brown curls....and eventually I was "given" two more that I didn't give birth to. I believe that Psychic readers are just a gimmic, a total waste of time and a dangerous infringement on our trust in the Lord. I deeply regret my one psychic encounter. At least it was before my Salvation and wonderfully washed in the Blood!
