Hello Sharon,
I was browseing your beautiful site looking for an inspirational poem for a
freind who is feeling down.  When I happend upon the page that talked about
how people bring curses upon themselves.  You had specifically mentioned a
piece of jewerly an ankh, I almost fell of my chair as I was wearing an ankh
at the time. 
I had no idea of it's symbolism or link to evil, needless to say I yanked it
off my neck just as you did.  Thank you for sharing your insights with me and
so many others who often need an inspirational boost.  I did find the perfect
poem and thoughts for my freind who is very troubled at this time.
Thank You Again ~ and God Bless You ~  Phyllis

I ask Phyllis permission to use this as an update and this was her reply.

Hi Sharon,

A friend mailed me your page because I have a Christian poetry site, and
she thought I'd enjoy it....thank you so much for your poems and for
letting your light shine for Jesus on the Internet. 

Thank you also for the insight into the Ank (and also how we must beware of
holding onto any craven images or images symbolic of the Satan).   You are
absolutely right, and my Pastor once preached about this and how we have
all kinds of symbols around our homes and person that should not be there,
and that is why many people lead defeated lives. 

I took what he said to heart and rid myself of everything that wasn't
Christian, including a gold buddah (on a gold charm bracelet bought before
becoming a Christian), a silver "Taurus" pendant, a vase with a dragon on
(I broke it which destroyed the value of my miniature vase collection),
certain books and recordings (tapes, records), pictures, etc. 

I also have a large Chinese, blanket box (teak and mahogany) (25 years
old), on the front panel was a lovely and peaceful, pastoral scene.  Yet on
the top were 2 dragons fighting over a fireball (representing Satan
fighting over the World....I since learned). I loved this blanket box, it
meant a lot to me (and was carved for me, and unique), so my husband asked
a carpenter friend if he could remove the carving from the top without
destroying the box....his friend said it would probably ruin the box (and
advised against it)! I prayed about it, and God let me know that it had to
be done.  So I said, "try anyway, because I can't live with those dragons
in the house anymore, now that I know the truth"! 

Anyway, God is faithful when we are faithful and my box was returned to me
with a lovely clear smooth surface (completely dragon-free, and beautiful).
I felt so much better within my spirit, and even physically when I was
obedient to what the Lord had revealed through His Holy word, and I would
encourage any other Christian who is experiencing struggles to rid
themselves of anything that hinders their walk with the Lord.

Thanks for listening, and keep up the excellent work....I shall return to
visit when I have more time....hope you will visit my website and be
blessed by the many wonderful poetic works of God's children Worldwide.

Talk with you later,

May God Richly Bless You,
In the Service of the King,
Sylvia

We do not know the impact that Hosea 4:6 could possibly have on us. But thank the Lord - He gently leads and the Holy Spirit is there to guide us into all truth.
