I hope that your post is genuine, OP.
Quoting: Shoot straight Johnny It is genuine. I finally got some rest last night after two weeks of not sleeping.
A big thanks to everyone for the prayers and uplifting words.
Off to work talk later.
Peace.
Quoting: Phoenix 2012 This is good to hear, Phoenix. I know we've had our 'run ins' a couple of times over the years. We have also shared a few laughs, on voice chat, for example, in the past.
I have a similar story to yours. I got involved in the occult when I was about 16 years old. Boy, did I ever regret it. Yes, it impacted my family for several years after.
I also heard a voice one time, like you. It was a dark, rasping voice. Plain as day, and in broad daylight. I'm not going to post here what it said. But it shook me to the core. I know what I heard.
About the same time I saw what I could only describe as a demon.
Again, plain as day, sunlit summer evening. It walked right in front of me right across my living room wall. A distance of about 18 feet it walked, while I looked at it, in full view. I know for a fact that I saw what I saw. This was a SOLID BLACK SHADOW. I posted the whole story several years ago on one of the 'shadow people' threads, but I can't find it now through searching. I know that this thing, whatever it was, fully intended to be seen. It intended for me to see it, which I did. The reasons for believing this, I stated on that shadow people thread mentioned above. It nearly gave me a heart attack. My sister was out at the shop at the time and she returned to find me clawing at the front door on my hands and knees, literally, trying to get out...LoL...funny now, but I couldn't breathe at the time. We went all over the house trying to re-create how this could have happened, using shadow, lighting, etc.
I know what I saw.
This happened 32 years ago. I still don't know what it was, but my best guess is that it was some kind of demon. But whatever it was, I know that I saw it. If you doubt my story as I have related it here, you can PM me and I will give you a link to my sister, who will verify what I have said.
Both me and my sister also heard, very clearly, the voices of children crying (clearly) right outside of our bedroom windows. I ended up sleeping in my sister's bed with her many times, because we were so scared...LoL.
There are other things. Many other things. I don't like to talk about them much in case they return. All I would say is that the occult world is real. There are things out there that we don't normally see in our daily lives, but they are certainly there, and they CAN and WILL intrude on our daily, comfortable lives if we allow them entrance.
Don't mess with ouija boards or other occult practices. They can seriously damage your life. I'm not kidding.
