At first I never understood what she (our prayer group leader) meant by the little gods in us. Later on as she spoke of her examples, I learned she meant it with our superstitious beliefs.
Starting when learned how to read the newspaper or the magazine, reading the horoscope completes my day. If it tells something good will happen, then I accept it. However, if it tells that something bad happens, you tend to doubt and reason out that this horoscope thing does not apply to Christianity and should not be believed.
Palm readings, taro cards, horoscopes, and superstitious beliefs could be fun yet it could be destructive at times. These little gods in us are acceptable for some and others not.
There was this incident narrated by my mom about some beliefs that simply hinders us. My mom was in need of money and she talked it over her brother. My uncle said yes and is willing to help however with one condition. She must take it tomorrow morning and not on night time. It so happened that my mom was in my uncle's house during the night. My uncle believes that it is not allowed to bring out money out of your pocket in the evening. So with my mom's respect to his brother's little god, she returned the next morning.
My mom is a Catholic Christian and she has also little gods in her, probably most of us. Whenever she cleans the house at night time, she never puts out the dirt from the house instead she collects it before the door then puts it in the garbage. She told me that her mom said, my lola, that putting out the dirt brings out the grasya (graces).
We tend to reason out, wala namang mawawala kung maniniwala ka.
Last year, I happened to come across an astrology readings. I typed my birtdate and other needed information which I have given without any hesitation. What appeared was three stars (out of five) beside the word love, and three stars (out of five) was beside the word wealth. There were other things there but the words love and wealth just caught my attention. It says there to click the stars beside it. I don't remember the exact words written but it mentioned that my love life would be difficult and will be full of trials but we could get through it after getting married. The next thing was to check on the wealth stars. What I got was I don't know how to handle money. These were from last year's but didn't check what's for now.
Maybe you would ask if there is truth in those hula for me? I won't be answering that. It's something personal and must be kept to myself for now.
The points is we tend to worry about things that would happen if we disobey this little gods and we get scared of it. There are even times when we had bad lucks, we reason out that it could be possibly from disobeying these little gods.
Remember that we have one God and a jealous God. If we are truly capable of loving and believing in our only God, our Father, then there will be peace in our hearts. We won't doubt about the future. We won't doubt about what happens next.
Let me share you some bible verses about putting trust to our God the Lord:
Have a nice day.
