The World is "the Bush".

Yesterday I spent some time in the Gullah village (South Carolina). So much beauty in the people...what was, what is, and what can be. One of the men from the village said he was sent to The Bush 26 times as a young boy before he found God. The Bush is in the woods with nature. In order to join the church as a child, you were sent there early in the morning around 3 am to find God. No Ba (daddy) or Ma. Only you alone with the animals ....and God...that is, if you find Him. The Bush is where your faith is tested. There you stand against spirits of fear, confusion, anxiety and whatever else comes to you in the (your) darkness. The man said he knew he found God when even the sight of snakes or wild boars in the woods did not cause any uneasiness. He said that because God was in control of everything in The Bush, he would be just fine. He had faith. His nightmares ceased and dreams were peaceful. " This world is The Bush," I said. He smiled and said, "Yes, God is everywhere and you will know you met him when you are in your own Bush." Beloved woman, keep going to The Bush until you find all that God has for you. Go back over and over again. There are lesson in The Bush. Return with faith and your full armour. Stand against all the spirits that try to take control of your life. Boldly, call them by name. Do not fear because your God controls everything.
