When It Hurts to Eat

The second parter of the prophetic conference was awesome. Every prophetic-gifting-activation exercise was highly charged and we barely had time to even feel fearful or think too much about it. Everyone had to prophesy for their partners and adhoc group members that all we could do was just depend on the Holy Spirit to do all the talking. The amazement comes from the consistency of the prophetic word given by various folks who did not know us.

Ron Sawka cautioned us not to marry, buy or sell (make major decisions) based on all these prophecies. "It's just common sense," he said. Basically, the purpose of this spiritual gift is to edify, exhort (encourage) and comfort the recipient. Prophecies on marriages or babies are not allowed.

But when it comes to praying for prophetic healing, my group did not get a single ailment correct. If anyone senses a particular ailment in the group and someone in the group actually has it, then healing might be on hand. Alas, no one had joint pains, ankle pains, hand ache nor back pains. I was actually waiting for someone to say 'Tooth ache' or 'Tongue ulcers' both of which I am currently suffering from but no one did. I guess I'll have to go for the root canal after all.

Eating has been such an ordeal for me the past two days. It's really sad when a Malaysian Chinese can't enjoy her food This also comes at a bad time for I've wedding dinner to attend tomorrow. All those nice dishes of an 8-course dinner and a healthy appetite. But no hearty set of chompers to process them. Woe is me!
