Why Does “God” Test Us?

Recently in a forum of Metaphysical Ministers this question was posted.

“Does anyone in our group believe that God tests us, or tests the strength of our faith?”
Rev.R.M.

The question isn’t an uncommon one. Nor is it one that is accepted on blind faith by Ministers. There are many answers and perspectives of course, because we all have a different way of looking at spiritual belief and practice. A Christian may say “Yes, God may test your faith and devotion of service to his teachings by placing challenges upon your path”. Unitarians might say “No, God doesn’t set up challenges to test our faith. But we set up problems in our lives to learn lessons”.

The wonderful Metaphysical Ministers within this group have similar perspectives to my first response. But when asked this question I have two perspectives to reply to this. Continue reading →

06/10 The Ænigma Project – Dyatlov’s Pass Mystery

The Ænigma Project – Mondays 9 PM EST

The Ænigma Project is a discussion group focused on the realm of the supernatural, paranormal and mysterious events that sometimes take place in our lives. Through multiple view points and experiences, we seek to enlighten our listeners and elucidate that which has become hidden beneath the many layers of misunderstanding and fear.

06/10 Our Topic: Dyatlov Pass Incident –
On the night of February 2, 1959, in the northern Ural mountains lies the Dyatlov’s Pass. The Pass is nestled in the east shoulder of the mountain Kholat Syakhl (an old Mansi language name, meaning Mountain of the Dead). 10 cross country skiers organized a trek across the mountain and through the pass. But only 1 returned alive. What happened to the other 9? Why did they leave shoes behind in their tents during the depths of winter? Were the missing skier’s bodies actually found with radiation burns, crushed internal injuries, and one with a missing tongue? What really happened to these unfortunate skiers who came up missing from their camp site?

We have been trying to discuss this mystery for 2 weeks, but each time something strange has occurred and kept us from getting on the air. If you believe that everything happens for a reason, then what is behind this story that doesn’t want to be told? Find out if we make it on air tonight…or will there be another strange and unusual incident again?

Join Paul Cagle and his co-hosts Sushi and Springwolf as we share our research, knowledge, insight and humor, play “Truth or Tale” and talk about the news of the day.

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: Queen of Cups – Inverted

Jun10

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Sometimes even the Queen needs to hide beneath the lily pads and let others take care of business. A fog hovers over the day and it’s not a time to think through big decisions. Do what absolutely must need to be done. But let the rest wait until tomorrow. Take care of yourself today, be gentile with your physical body and keep it from injury or over work.

Additional Insight:

Sometimes the Divine Universe reminds us that we’re connected to the greater world around us. As weather patterns change, so does its effect on our physical body. The turmoil going on around you has taken a toll on you. Be it actual weather patterns, or energy from the community you live in you maybe feeling drained today.

Relax. Don’t over do it and give yourself a little “me” time. Walk a little slower, don’t get stressed out about little things, leave the big things until tomorrow when your head is a little more clear. Avoid anything physically strenuous or that little sore muscle could turn into a serious problem.

Show a bit of patience for those around you who aren’t reacting as well to the pressures. A little compassion might be helpful or you could simply walk away go to your room and close the door. Leave the world to its own devices and focus on your piece of the Universe.

Tomorrow will be a brighter and better day.
