It may not be from the devil, it might a gift God has given him/her, but you know the media, sometimes they like to distort things, or they think if they mentioned that it was a gift from God, they might offend somebody, or the person who thinks of themselves as a "psychic", just don't realize the gift God has given them.

I suppose it all depends on what that gift is used for. I've heard of many instances where people have paid money for a so-called psychic, just so they could find out about something, and from what I heard, the psychics walked away with a lot of money, and most of what the people were told or warned about, never really happened.

think upon this a bit. for Moses, Noah and all those others to hear the word of God had to have some communication abilties or the ability to hear and understand. Psychic ability is just that in a odd nutshell. Hearing the word of God. GloryB is right on with here assisment if not pretty darn close.

Confusion is good that means you always ask questions and don't take things at face value. Good for you. I still question all my beliefs even the ones I have had all my life. As for the "from the devil" part, those people you have seen that are using thier ability for the good of a child or the community... well ask your self this do you believe Jesus would do the same?

In the end only you can find your own answers. Still I think it is grand that you ask the questions. fun part is no matter what you deside you can always change you mind. No one answer is right or wrong as long as you believe.

Oh I believe. I also agree with Kero in that we all have something - I just haven't been able to tap into mine. I got my first glimpse a month or so after my husband died. A complete stranger said that he had an image of my husband playing in a field with 2 dogs, wearing a red flannel shirt. This person had never met me or my husband & had no monetary motive. My husband was fond of red flannel shirts and when he died, the funeral director allowed us to put the boxes of ashes of our two dogs in the casket with hubby.

A few months later a woman who had no idea where I live or details of my life asked me what was going on between me & a squirrel. I looked at her ...and she said, "Well your husband is giving off this thought...that it was funny watching you & the squirrel, but now you're just looking foolish". I had been coming home every day to find a squirrel at the bird feeder. I would get out of my car & charge the feeder; shaking my keys at it & barking like a dog. I have had more examples, but those two should be enough for now. I have safely cemented my reputation as a certifiable CD wacko, huh?!?!!

Sure there are real ones, but they don't work at 1-900-psychicchat or whatever it's called. I have no psysic abilities at all. But I have known people in the past who definitely have.

Most of them do not advertise it.

Hum interesting.

Nothing wrong with debating........silly or whatever.
I happen to believe there is something to this. Not 100% but like everyone.....I get these feelings everyonce in a while.
Livewire........Friends sometimes ask me what feelings I have on something particular. Made a few predictions where they have come true and some are amazed. I dont' know where it comes from and I am not 100% right on.

I dont' consider me psychic either but we all the the ability in some way.
GloryB had a very good point.
Thing is to keep an open mind and respect each others opinion.

Twinkle toes........I like squirrels too
