Ouija Board & It's Connection to Evil

I get online today and discover a post in one of the forums I regularly visit to find a documentary on someone using an Ouija Board & becoming a Satanist. This guy had a terrible childhood, his father was an alcoholic & negligent of his parental duties, which left his son in need of love as a sense of belonging to someone for his own security. So, the guy in the documentary searches for love in the wrong places, namely the Ouija Board. He was fascinated & interested in the spirits the Ouija Board brought to his home by getting out of bed to search for them. One day, he was summoned by a demonic force, convincing him of conversion to Satanism. For four years, he performed satanic rituals, but during that time he felt guilty for his belief in them due to the little love and compassion left in his heart. Anyways, because of the little love and compassion in his heart, the demonic forces tried to kill him by making him commit suicide. However, in the darkness, he heard a voice calling for him to leave. He went to a lady at a local Church & she prayed over him and denounced the demons in the name of Jesus. Immediately, the man was healed & the devils left. He lived a normal life thereafter.

Anyhow, this video definitely made my day. It made me realize that we can't take God for granted and should always recognize that what we have is good and we don't need anything more unless it's under God's will. You can't be misunderstanding about love. You only need God's love to keep living on Earth. And some day, when that day comes, you will be able to get closer to that love depending on how much you loved God here on Earth.

Granite City


For anyone who lives in the Midwest, Granite City may be a popular restaurant in your area. Yesterday I had the privilege of eating at Granite City to celebrate the birthdays of two of my family members. Upon our arrival into the restaurant, we were greeted by the host and led to an open table able to seat six people. It was a quiet & comforting setting in a blinded room with dim recessed lighting, next to a transparent kitchen with many chefs & waiters/waitresses busily working to meet the demands of customers.

Upward & onward, away from the fluff above, my order was a Grilled London Broil with Bourbon Sauce. Goodness! It's by far the best thing I've ordered & ate during the short time I've lived in my area. It was a dish served with 12 oz of charbroiled of round steak (I requested well done) with a knife slipped underneath, which I primarily conclude is for etiquette. Anyways, the steak was dressed/marinated with bourbon sauce & caramelized onions with sides of crispy onion strings & mashed garlic red potatoes (you have an option for waffle fries). I couldn't the finish plate, which is a good thing, considering you spend ~$18 to satisfy your hunger. So, it may be something you order once in a while, or in a blue moon because of its price and heaviness in your stomach. But seriously, if you live around one or know of one by travel, stop by and treat yourself with a hearty meal. You won't be disappointed. What I tasted is only what I know & will remain somewhat of a secret until you try it!

I hope this blog makes you jealous or motivated to go order something at Granite City, although I know it was only 1 item that I ordered & need to make more visits before I confirm my judgment, which may or may not be enough to humble this message!?

Peace everyone. Until Next time!
