Question:

Dear Bro Ignatius Mary

Thank you for always giving positive reassurance about the Love God has for us and the Mercy He is always willing to provide.We are all blessed to have your help and guidance.

Katie it is possible to pull yourself away from all of these occult things.Do not despair! I went back to saying the Holy Rosary when I was involved in the occult and then stopped because of fear. The devil wants us to be constantly unsettled and afraid.I did silly things like Tarot, pendulum etc.

One night a Catholic in good standing came up to me and said "I had a dream about you and I saw you Hanging on to our Blessed Mother by a thread. You have to be the one to hang on because Mother Mary will never let you fall. If you do not hang on you WILL not be saved."

The next morning I got up at the crack of dawn and went to confession and later began to say the Rosary. I got rid of everything to do with the occult. I now treat it like an alcoholic treats alcohol. I do not read horoscopes or have anything to do with the occult. I don't allow people to play occult guessing games around me. I throw out anything new age or occult that comes my way.

If you start small, just One Hail Mary a day you can beat this. I have been where you are.

Go to confession God is waiting for you. Its time for you to be free and happy. It can be slow but its a rewarding journey coming home to God. I have more problems now than ever before but I have the hope. strength and love that only the One True God provides.

Since this is not a discussion forum I normally do not publish "queries" that are really written to one of our readers. But, I make an exception here since your testimony I think is very helpful.

Thanks and God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
