I have collected rocks, crystals, etc. since I was a kid. I've never associated then with any sort of meta-physical properties and I cringe when I hear people try to explain how certain rocks have "vibrations" or "energies". 🙄 Why can't we just appreciate the beauty and wonder of God's creation!? You said it, Melissa...Worshipping the creation, not the creator.
Yep! I make jewelry as a hobby and have used gemstones in my pieces because I admire their beauty, and I have several bracelets made from gemstones because I find the stones to be gorgeous. I don’t believe they hold any powers or have special properties.
I look at stones and gems and contemplate the amazing force that formed them and later re-shaped them. A product among countless created by God. The giant crystal caves in Mexico are mindboggling, Google for amazing photos.
really? some rocks do have vibrations and energy. They are useful. I mean its obvious and science can even prove it. There is beauty. God created the rocks. God even wanted Moses to speak to a rock. Go, get away from these channels, these people will spread their disease to you.
Everyone please pray for my sister. Literally 5 minutes before seeing that you posted this I saw my sister post on Instagram about channelling energy from crystals and good vibrations. I didn't know she was so deep into this stuff.
i hope it brings some comfort to let you know she probably isn't deep into that stuff. some people do things and it's not always life and death/heaven and hell. sometimes, it is innocuous or people just find it fun.
Same with essential oils. It irritates me that people try to ascribe magical powers to stuff. Some plants to have helpful properties for SURE, but my dudes, do not put your faith in rocks and leaves!!! 😆
Exactly Guns are evil No ppl are evil Rocks aren’t evil Ppl are evil Ppl are uninformed so they are afraid. Educate urself. Frequencies, vibrations, energies are all ultra real and ultra important. The level of ignorance in the Church is astounding. Therefore the Church says rocks are evil. Incredible.
@@YeshuaKingMessiah New Age is watered down Paganism. There are no energies in crystalized rocks.. The only spiritual beings on earth are God, us, demons, and even angels.. Not objects.
@@YeshuaKingMessiah and guns are not evil, it's the evil person that misuses the gun. A gun's true purpose is for self-defense, not shooting children at a school.
I always liked crystals because they were beautiful! God made them to show His creativity. Satan likes to use God’s beautiful creations for his own purposes.
I heard another Christian RUclipsr say that if you have essential oils, candles, and crystals and gemstones in your house you need to get rid of them. Yes, I have all of these things in my house, but I have them because I think that they are pretty and smell nice, not because I think that they are magic.
I think intention is important here. If you don't have any sort of intent to use them for spiritual purposes, I think you're okay. Although the whole "stumbling block" thing is really really important to me so the conviction to be expressly clear that what little crystals and gems I do have are not for spiritual purposes is heavy on me. You never know who is a secret/casual witch and who isn't sometimes.
It feels like people are always either on one extreme or the other. Ridiculous and I'm sick of it. Pretty sure your Christian RUclipsr has no problem wearing a rock in her wedding band (or having his wife wear one). And how dare we wear metal either??
I'm coming out of the New Age and just got rid of my crystals and tarot cards. I think I needed to because of the intention I had when I bought them (the crystals at least - obviously the tarot cards needed to go). Thanks for this video!
Amen! Getting rid of them shows God that you are agreeing to break ties with that stuff also. Whatever He sets us free from, we should always throw out the stuff associated with it. If it's hard to throw out, then ya know your heart's still holding in to it. Praise God you had that wisdom.
I threw away all my crystals and tarot too. It was saddening bc of my attachment to them but was such a relief honestly bc I know honoring God is more important 💓🙏🏼
I have a friend that o used to work with who is a Wiccan who always had crystals on her desk, and changed them depending on what she wanted from the universe that day. I pray for this friend daily, but she's pretty firmly entrenched in that lifestyle. Doesn't mean God won't change her life, but she believes God is a woman, too.
Not an ex-New Ager, but I am more aware of how much crystals are now associated with spirituality. A decade ago I would have loved to wear the cool necklaces we have now, but these days it often sends a message I don’t want it to. Satan is the reason we can’t have nice things 😒
Window4503 -- do it anyway. Don't let Satan have the final word just because he stole something beautiful! I proudly promote the rainbow, for instance, as the symbol from God--and I won't let anyone steal that away for their own purposes. 🌈
Window4503 Everything has been inverted in this reality! Spirituality IS the truth, God is spirit and you must worship in truth and spirit. If you follow a fear based doctrine that includes hell, damnation and blood sacrifice then you belong to a cult. The New Age as well as organized religion was created to mislead the masses, because they so closely parallel the truth. Their are so many false prophets on RUclips.
Exactly my thoughts...I don't want to send the wrong message because new age is so prevalent right now. But I also think there's a balance between that and not letting Satan keep us from good things that God has made.
@@JanuaryLisa I would if it didn’t potentially cause others to stumble or undermine my message. It may depend on where we are and whom we associate with, but in my case, I’ll probably refrain...one of the girls I’m trying to befriend and gradually witness to is a witch.
I always look at them and am amazed at God's handiwork. How He lines up the atoms in a specific way to form the shapes, amazes me. The Heavens declare the Glory of God! The Earth proclaims the work of His hands!
Personally ,I had to get rid of all of my crystals. Not necessarily because I was tempted to use them after being saved but, during a rough time I was tempted to meditate/LOA my way out of it and I think having the crystals around reminded me of that “escape”.
My stepfather actively practiced various forms of witchcraft before being born again. One thing I remember him telling me about how he used crystals in witchcraft stuck with me. Be careful where any sort of crystal is from because demonic things can be attached to them. As someone who enjoys geology and finds it fascinating I have always gotten anything decorative or just fun to look at from shops that did not sell anything new age. Discernment is a very wise way to approach this. The last thing you want to do is invite the enemy into your house.
It makes me furious how the devil tries to mess with God’s creation. Heck if he can mess with us humans made in the image of God, don’t you think he will mess with other things of God...especially bunch of rocks. 🤣
AMEN. Exactly. The stores that these gemstones and crystals are purchased from are also important to take into account. Stores that sell religious figurines, statues, and idols are popular for hosting demonic spirits.
The thing about crystals is the you don’t need them for “good vibrations or energy” when you’re filled with the Holy Spirit! The Holy Spirit fills you with the fruit or the spirit, He controls your anxieties and stress. It’s absolutely amazing!
I just gave a girl two bracelets I made of jasper for her birthday as a gift, I noticed she had a matching gemstone bracelet so I thought she would like them. I make jewelry with gemstones sometimes because they are pretty and inexpensive, I know better not to attach significance to them whatsoever. Little did I know when she received them that she would. It was naïve on my part. She told me her parents gave her one made of whatever stone to help her anxiety. And that jasper was good as well. 🤦♀️ I felt like I was just reinforcing her delusional. At least I told her about Jesus, but this was a lesson in itself.
You weren’t naive. It was a nice thing you did. Maybe it would open up a conversation. You buying her something pretty didn’t make her worse. This is something I’m learning that Satan loves to do. He wants us to believe that our good is harmful so that we will not try anymore. Don’t beat yourself up. ❤️☺️
A lot of my dad's side of the family dabble in new age practices. I enjoy crystals and gems for their beauty but I used to attribute spiritual properties to certain rocks. So glad that I got saved.
The best cure of rock worship, take a geology class! I am rock hound since I was a little kid, with piles and piles of rocks. Never met a rock I didn't like.
My town has an annual Geology Show. My mom and I went every year. There was always this one Messianic Jewish lady who used her exhibit to spread the Gospel. Everyone who went to look at her gemstone display heard about Jesus as "the Rock that was struck" for our sins. I grew up associating crystals with this woman and her outreach mission. I had to really strip away my personal experience/bias in order to see why people were upset with my decorative crystals.
I love all cristals, I find them very beautiful and amazing on how God makes them. I think of them just the same as a Ruby, Emerald, and Diamond. Thank you for clearing this up for everyone. I love your posting please keep it up and God bless 🙏
I love crystals and gemstone but when I try to buy them they are advertised as some spirtural thing and I don't want it around me since they maybe prayed over or had some ceremony for new age or white magic.
YOUR HAIR IS SO STINKING CUTE!!! I love all your videos, I have learned so much from you! You're awesome, glory to God, thank you for using your voice to shine His light!
I've never been new age, but I will say that when looking at crystal and stone jewelry, if it is marketed as "healing", "protective", "balancing" or any otherwise mystical, I choose not to get those. I believe it is ok to have crystal and stone jewelry and I have some necklaces and bracelets that I love, but I wear them because they're pretty, not because I believe them to have any mystical property. However, if you were new age and had crystals and stones for their magical or mystical properties, I'm going to say you should probably toss those. Ultimately, that is between you and the Lord, so I'd give it lots of good study and prayer. Also, if you have come out of the new age deception and are struggling with this, please know that as your sister in Christ who has come out of other types of deception, I am praying for you daily. ❤️
Thank you for bringing up this topic! Before getting reconnected with the Lord, I had bought some crystals at a shop that sold all types of teas, crystals, and such. These shops are often disguised or dressed up as being a holistic or "all natural:" store/shop. I was initially drawn to the look and beauty of the crystals which is fine, but then the owner started telling me how different ones meant different things. She told me to tell her which ones I was drawn to first and she would be able to tell me what those crystals meant. Reflecting back on it now, her doing that reminds me of what we see with tarot cards when people go get "a reading". I don't think it's a coincidence, but those crystals have been misplaced for a couple months and I couldn't tell you where they are. I still think they are beautiful, but because they are often associated with new age beliefs, I am definitely more aware of how having these can be misleading into what I believe.
Just took my daughter to a DO for back/neck pain. For the last few months he’s just been using pressure points to release tension but yesterday he suggested a rock to absorb “bad energy”. My heart sank bc/I had left a chiropractor who had believed these things and had really searched for one who wouldn’t. It’s so disheartening.
I loved rocks, from whene I was a kid. But thene someone said: they have powers. And from that time off I had a headpain whene I opend the closetdoor. And I got more and more interested in the occult stuf. I was so lost. I believed a lot off onhealty stuff. Whene I met Jezus, he helpt me trouch my house with a garbithbag: I trough it all away! My stones, books, kaarts... a lot. 3 bags full! I’m so glad that Jezus is real and He stays, and trustable. A real Rock! 😃👍🏼
So refreshing to hear a like-minded sister in Christ explain this topic! I come from a very legalistic and abusive home, I regularly was condemned and yelled at for wearing makeup, wearing natural jewelry like crystals or gemstones etc, or getting my ears pierced. It's so exhausting to live like that!! Pharisees counting their tassels... 😒
This topic is so timely for me! I just had the opportunity to witness to a friend today about the harm of crystals and other new age beliefs. Great video 💗
People I know say they are for healing. I used to admire crystals and wanted to wear them. I bought on one specifically to help me speak Infront of people. It didn’t work and I thought how silly of me to even think that. However I got rid of those ones I used to decorate for energy and heating. I still have some that are beautiful. And my mind goes to made by God and they are beautiful.
Hi Melissa, Very well explained. Guys, on a side note: stay clear of ASMR. This stuff is being used by some supposed christians and or believers. The Holy Spirit immediately revealed its not of God.Its supposed to aide in relaxing. Imagine that.
Good morning Melissa. It's good to point out the tendency of humans to worship things/objects. Whatever it is we give power to or put before God certainly is an idol. Enjoy your videos Sis. 🙏✝️🤍 (Hey, my maiden name is Dougherty👍)
Good presentation Melissa, I liked your practicality about these minerals and you note of caution for them not to be a stumbling block. l worked as a miner and saw at times amazingly beautiful crystalline minerals deep under the ground. I appreciated their beauty and mathematical precision as an example of God's handiwork and as a little glimpse of his majesty and ordered symmetry. I was surprised that people thought they had spiritual uses instead of just appreciating their beauty and industrial uses. I remember once seeing a wall of purple amethyst and golden hued chalcopyrite, what a sight over 4,500 feet under, but a few days later it was drilled, blasted and hauled to the ore passes. Amazing what comes with the correct mix of elements, chemistry, intense pressure and heat.
Thank you for this. I went to get a massage & after it was done, I seen a basket of crystal rocks & I thought that they were so pretty being that I used to collect rocks as a kid. Well, the therapist proceeds to sell them to me & explained their “healing powers” & how they keep “negative energy” coming to me whether that was thru people, my computer, etc. I bought them & then I felt bad because I just wanted them because they were pretty but I wrestled with this & then thought, this rock came from God & I bought it because of its beauty, nothing else. And, this video confirmed that for me, so thank you again.
You hit the nail on the head with this video, Melissa! I think they are beautiful, and would totally have them decorate my home (I used to collect rocks and semi precious stones), but personally I don’t want anyone getting the wrong idea and thinking I’m “into” the spirituality ppl associated them with these days. Im less worried about being condemned by others and more concerned about showing some form of approval of the New Age. It’s so popularized and I have friends who are dabbling. Breaks my heart.
I agree with your assessment. The only thing I would say in addition is that if the jewelry has occultic intent behind it, no Christian should really have them. Like a chakra necklace or the bag of stones that comes with a list of their "magical" properties.
This has come at the right time.. a female friend pf mine is reading books into crystals and talking about Law of Attraction - I think she wanted my approval, but I'm more concerned on the LofA. I'll be asking questions when we speak again. Thank you for sharing this video, Melissa
Tonight I got to be the person I needed a few years ago; the person that advises someone that new age isn't as innocent as it appears. Who knows if she'll listen but I hope so. I never had anyone tell me but I wish I had had someone.
Ah yes, the moonstone. And the onyx ("black stones repel negative energy and protect the wearer from evil'')...oy! I remember those days and sometimes I cringe at myself! I still appreciate gemstones as a beautiful creation of God - but I praise the creator, not the creation. Actually, this is the premise for the jewelry I make now. I incorporate beautiful gemstones & also Israeli olive wood beads into Christian specific jewelery (crosses, fish, etc) to bring people into the truth that is Christ and as part of my ministry in warning others about the New Age. But I refuse to sell them in any store that promotes metaphysics ideology, or give them to people who I know will use them as a spiritual conduit. It is a tough line to balance for many but I have found I have had no desire or temptation to return to my prior use for them. Praise God!!
I never quite bought their properties but I did buy them before being Christian and now I think I'll find some purely decorative use for them but happy you addressed this.
From Google: Quartz is a type of crystal used in watches, computers, and other devices to keep time. The quartz crystal vibrates or ticks an exact 60 seconds per minute when electricity is applied to it. The picture shows an example of a type of crystal you'll find in your computer.
Totally agree Melissa..Crystals were a primary aspect of my healing work as a new age practitioner... if you're wearing a crystal, people will believe you're wearing it as an amulet . Christians need to carefully examine their intention for wanting to wear crystals or geodes. However I did keep *some* of my crystals and geodes because I think of God's beautiful creations but only after praying about it and blessing them in the name of the Father Son and Holy Spirit.. I no longer wear crystals or geodes... that includes the bracelets I had made with various stones as a medicine wheel bracelet... God had me cut the bracelet and rearrange the stones into a "resurrection" bracelet that goes from white stone beads to red earth to black and back to white again ☝️
I ignore the witchcraft of it and give it my own purpose without feeling guilty cause I know where I stand. I will enjoy them for what they are, pretty rocks that God made in this beautiful earth
I think crystals are fine unless you charge them, obviously. I didn’t use crystals when I did reiki but I had a Metatron (🥴) necklace and other Buddhist stuff that I quickly got rid of
I just came out of the new age in august, and the first thing I did was throw out my bracelets since I used them as protective talismans. Then I packed up all my quartz crystals and gemstone bags that I used to carry everywhere. I felt so free when I did that. I now know that I was a slave to fear and superstition. I still have a few decorative crystals displayed, but I no longer “charge” them in the full moon, or attach any kind of worship/powers to them. Will I ever wear gemstone beads again? I don’t know. I’ll have to pray about that. For now, I will abstain since I am a new Christian.
Funny enough, this topic arose for me after hearing Beyonce sing that she "charges her crystals in a full moon" which I have gotten into interesting conversations with people about this verse (and would love to hear others' thoughts on it as well). Thanks for this video!
She also says she uses the pages of the Bible to plug her menses. No joke. Beyoncé is definitely not who you think she is or who she used to be. Be careful there. My spirit physically rejects her videos and concerts (I used to be a fan and watch vocal compilations but since being saved I can’t.) it’s pretty well known what she is, and Jay z as well. I don’t say this to be mean, I feel ultimately she was a victim of the evil music industry. That verse I said is in the beginning of the lemonade video, and stay prayed up if you watch it 🙏
I’ve always collected crystals and rocks since I was younger, but I got mixed up with a friend that does Tarot and cleansing of crystals with the Full moon. Not thinking that it was so wrong I started cleansing my crystals too and wearing them for a special purpose to protect me from “bad energies.” My eyes have been opened to the truth and I’m back to my Christian faith after being so lost for at least a couple of years now. I feel like I’m back home. Praise Jesus for coming after me and not stopping until he brought his missing lamb back to the flock ❤
What about salt lamps? Are they used in the new age? Do they fit into this crystal category? I've been told by people who use them that they "change the charge of the ions in the air to promote healing", but I've yet to see a verified study that substantiates this claim.
So I recently watched a video of a guy talking about and testing salt lamps. In it he talked about how it is proven that ions help with depression and positive, happy feelings. There are many ions around water falls and things in nature, so ions are natural (God made) and helpful to well being. But the test on the salt lamps showed no change in ions.
I am playing it safe..i collect shells..i live at the beach..I can make pretty things with them..I appreciate the fact that every shell I have has had at one time a living creature in it. ...that blows my mind..God made this beautiful thing a home for a time to a beautiful animal and in due time that animal passed and I have what is left.. I am at awe of the creator. I have black shells and white shells and different kinds of shapes and sizes..God is a full of wonder and awe.
Crystals are used in electronic components that go into technology like satellites (Crystal oscillator is an example). They have a use other than pretty, but not spiritually.
Amen! We are not to be a stumbling block to others. You also still need to be careful where you are getting this "jewelry" or "pretty rock" from--could this item have been cursed by the person you are purchasing it from or receiving it from as a gift. Be careful what you bring into your home or put on your body. Use discernment.
There was a girl At church who tried to tell me that crystals were alive, when I disagreed she vehemently said they were alive. This girl was confused about a lot of things and didn't listen to any counter argument. She moved to another city and we lost contact.
You mentioned there are no studies to prove crystals have energies or power. I'm a mum of young kids, I would love to do more research on that but I struggle to find time. You have more knowledge and experience on this topic. Energies and vibrations do exist in physics and new agers try to use that as a scientific fact to prove we can shift moods/energies etc. I would really appreciate a video with more details. How do we separate the two? Physics and mystical/spiritual. What does the research say? I feel like I lack knowledge to be able to have a proper conversation with a New Ager. Thank you for making your videos, they have been helpful to me. ❤
I love your messages. You probably have no control over your ads, but thought you should know the ad preceding your message was for some magical obsidian feng shui bracelet from Buddha Power Store that has had rituals performed over them. 😳. Keep telling the truth!
I used to collect rocks from gift shops and rock shops, but I decided if there is anyone who would see my collection wonder for even a moment about my beliefs on account of that, I don't want them anymore, and I got rid of everything. I also chose some time ago not to wear any jewelry anymore because I decided I do not need or want any attention from adornment, so that removed the jewelry ones too.
Great video :) I started getting into Wicca and loved crystals as a teen, I believed they had "magical" properties. Now it's hard to not think of my old beliefs from all those years back, especially when I see them in certain jewelry shapes. It stinks because I *love* how they look and it's gorgeous as jewelry, but man is it hard, same thing with moon jewelry. I know it's God's creation and nothing bad, but it's been so twisted that I wouldn't want people to think I'm into New Age/Wicca still. I figured it would have been better to remove them due to possible temptation as I'm fighting the slight longing to go back to neo-paganism, even with my stance against it.
Could you talk about essential oils sometime? It just kinda weirds me out, and I’m not sure if their is any validity to the claims I hear about them...
My guess is that it is similar to gems/crystals. They are natural by-products of plants and have been used in perfumery and medicine for centuries. It is when the purely physical properties of them get wrapped up in mystic and spiritual claims that the problem occurs. Someone more qualified than I would have to speak to it fully though.
If the oil blend claims something that cannot be achieved by a plant, like financial prosperity, then it's not an oil, it's a potion. I use lemongrass oil to repel insects, orange oil and other oils with disinfecting properties in my cleaners and lavender or frankincense for a calming scent when I'm stressed. But I stay away from oils that proclaim to change my life in any way.
I’m in agreement with this 90%. My family does not celebrate holloween but we love bats and black cats and pumpkins which God created! However, what about the whole spiritual housecleaning of not bringing into our home objects that may have curses placed on them to influence our households family members? Some of this jewelry may be made by proclaiming witches who have placed curses on the items. We know this is done on music. I think you should have spiritual discernment on what and who you buy from. Just a thought....
Thank you for this! I have been collecting crystals since I was a child. I have them all over my house and office. I even wear them. Why? Because I think they are a beautiful reminder of what God can create. I don't believe they will attract money, love, etc. I have the same views with essential oils - which I use daily. Again, another wonderful creation of God. I wear Patchouli everyday. I love how it smells. Although, I must say.... cinnamon oil keeps roaches away. THAT alone is a blessing!!! 😃 Much ❤️ from Texas!
Take the word “Crystals” and swap it with “flowers”.... If I decorate my house with “flowers” and that brings me joy - that’s fine. However, if I start praying to my “flowers” or looking to them for spiritual guidance - that’s idolatry.
I feel the teaching of Paul's sacrificial food isn't brought up enough. Although it's wise to discern if something makes you or your brother stumble, it is perfectly fine to use God's creation. Many Christians run to fear and aren't planted on the truth when it comes to objects used for worship. Thank you for this video!
Crystals have vibrations- see quartz in watches and crystals used to make AM radios. How do vibrations affect us is the real question and how can/do crystals affect the vibrations?
We're just beginning to understand some of the health benefits of certain light waves and ranges. Much light isn't visible to the naked eye but it doesn't mean it's not there or has no impact on human, animal or plant health. I don't know about vibrations but I think perhaps different types of crystals interact with different types of light in different ways which can bring about subtle changes in our health. At any rate they are part of God creation and as such are safe to use provided we don't make an idol of them.
Great video Melissa.. I used to live by Rose quartz.. to attract love. I carried worrystones, slept with Obsidian under my pillow. I've repented, totally. I did have my faith in their power. Oddly, I had awful dreams, no love came, and I got hugely sick. I regret deeply.. I was a #hotmess .. then went straight to Bethel. Lady was talking of her crystal pendant. It confused me! I was the one charging them up in moonlight. I think I was deluded. Christ called this Prodigal back. Hallelujah 🙏🇬🇧🕊✝️👍😇💕🤲
I have collected rocks, crystals, etc. since I was a kid. I've never associated then with any sort of meta-physical properties and I cringe when I hear people try to explain how certain rocks have "vibrations" or "energies". 🙄 Why can't we just appreciate the beauty and wonder of God's creation!? You said it, Melissa...Worshipping the creation, not the creator.
The same with me, I love the beauty of them as I love the beauty of a flower or a bird or a cloud........
Yep! I make jewelry as a hobby and have used gemstones in my pieces because I admire their beauty, and I have several bracelets made from gemstones because I find the stones to be gorgeous. I don’t believe they hold any powers or have special properties.
Yes, a thousand times. Amen. Forever in awe of our Creator and His beautiful Creation.
I look at stones and gems and contemplate the amazing force that formed them and later re-shaped them. A product among countless created by God. The giant crystal caves in Mexico are mindboggling, Google for amazing photos.
really? some rocks do have vibrations and energy. They are useful. I mean its obvious and science can even prove it.
There is beauty. God created the rocks. God even wanted Moses to speak to a rock.
Go, get away from these channels, these people will spread their disease to you.
I've been saved from the new age practices
Thank you Jesus 🙏
thank you Jesus!!
Everyone please pray for my sister. Literally 5 minutes before seeing that you posted this I saw my sister post on Instagram about channelling energy from crystals and good vibrations. I didn't know she was so deep into this stuff.
Your sister is in my prayers.
Annabel, I just prayed for our Lord to draw her out of darkness and into HIS light and truth!
i hope it brings some comfort to let you know she probably isn't deep into that stuff. some people do things and it's not always life and death/heaven and hell. sometimes, it is innocuous or people just find it fun.
Did you two grow up with any biblical upbringing?
Cause she might like hearing this video which can speak from both perspectives. :)
my friend too, who isn’t my friend. she’s a catholic i think :/
In and of themselves there is nothing wrong with crystals, it's when people misuse them spiritually and then it becomes witchcraft.
Same with essential oils. It irritates me that people try to ascribe magical powers to stuff. Some plants to have helpful properties for SURE, but my dudes, do not put your faith in rocks and leaves!!! 😆
Exactly.

I always referred to them as “more fancy dirt”.
Lol. Fancy dirt. Hahaha. Thats awesome.
I always liked crystals because they were beautiful! God made them to show His creativity. Satan likes to use God’s beautiful creations for his own purposes.
Amén 🙌🙌🙌❤️
Crystals are beautiful but they are spiritual doorways. God told me to smash all of mine for a reason.
I heard another Christian RUclipsr say that if you have essential oils, candles, and crystals and gemstones in your house you need to get rid of them. Yes, I have all of these things in my house, but I have them because I think that they are pretty and smell nice, not because I think that they are magic.
I think intention is important here. If you don't have any sort of intent to use them for spiritual purposes, I think you're okay. Although the whole "stumbling block" thing is really really important to me so the conviction to be expressly clear that what little crystals and gems I do have are not for spiritual purposes is heavy on me.

It feels like people are always either on one extreme or the other. Ridiculous and I'm sick of it.
Pretty sure your Christian RUclipsr has no problem wearing a rock in her wedding band (or having his wife wear one). And how dare we wear metal either??
Even candles? Lol clearly not a person who's ever lived through a hurricane.
we should put our Trust in Prayer to the LORD JESUS CHRIST alone.
Amen, we should trust in Christ alone.
I'm coming out of the New Age and just got rid of my crystals and tarot cards. I think I needed to because of the intention I had when I bought them (the crystals at least - obviously the tarot cards needed to go). Thanks for this video!
Bless you!
praise God for bringing you out of that!!
Amen! Getting rid of them shows God that you are agreeing to break ties with that stuff also. Whatever He sets us free from, we should always throw out the stuff associated with it. If it's hard to throw out, then ya know your heart's still holding in to it.
Praise God you had that wisdom.
I threw away all my crystals and tarot too. It was saddening bc of my attachment to them but was such a relief honestly bc I know honoring God is more important 💓🙏🏼
tarot is man made garbage, but God made crystals. keep them!
I have a degree in geology and geophysics. And yes, they are just rocks. They're just pretty. That's all.
I have a friend that o used to work with who is a Wiccan who always had crystals on her desk, and changed them depending on what she wanted from the universe that day. I pray for this friend daily, but she's pretty firmly entrenched in that lifestyle. Doesn't mean God won't change her life, but she believes God is a woman, too.
Not an ex-New Ager, but I am more aware of how much crystals are now associated with spirituality. A decade ago I would have loved to wear the cool necklaces we have now, but these days it often sends a message I don’t want it to. Satan is the reason we can’t have nice things 😒
Window4503 -- do it anyway. Don't let Satan have the final word just because he stole something beautiful! I proudly promote the rainbow, for instance, as the symbol from God--and I won't let anyone steal that away for their own purposes. 🌈
Satan is the reason we can’t have nice things....lol, I’m taking that for the title of a book I’ll probably never write. Lol
Window4503 Everything has been inverted in this reality! Spirituality IS the truth, God is spirit and you must worship in truth and spirit. If you follow a fear based doctrine that includes hell, damnation and blood sacrifice then you belong to a cult. The New Age as well as organized religion was created to mislead the masses, because they so closely parallel the truth. Their are so many false prophets on RUclips.
Exactly my thoughts...I don't want to send the wrong message because new age is so prevalent right now. But I also think there's a balance between that and not letting Satan keep us from good things that God has made.

I would if it didn’t potentially cause others to stumble or undermine my message. It may depend on where we are and whom we associate with, but in my case, I’ll probably refrain...one of the girls I’m trying to befriend and gradually witness to is a witch.
I always look at them and am amazed at God's handiwork. How He lines up the atoms in a specific way to form the shapes, amazes me. The Heavens declare the Glory of God! The Earth proclaims the work of His hands!
Personally ,I had to get rid of all of my crystals. Not necessarily because I was tempted to use them after being saved but, during a rough time I was tempted to meditate/LOA my way out of it and I think having the crystals around reminded me of that “escape”.
That's an amazing story of wisdom and self-control, praise God
Dont ever bring them back. God told me to smash all of my crystals.
My stepfather actively practiced various forms of witchcraft before being born again. One thing I remember him telling me about how he used crystals in witchcraft stuck with me. Be careful where any sort of crystal is from because demonic things can be attached to them. As someone who enjoys geology and finds it fascinating I have always gotten anything decorative or just fun to look at from shops that did not sell anything new age. Discernment is a very wise way to approach this. The last thing you want to do is invite the enemy into your house.
It makes me furious how the devil tries to mess with God’s creation. Heck if he can mess with us humans made in the image of God, don’t you think he will mess with other things of God...especially bunch of rocks. 🤣
AMEN. Exactly. The stores that these gemstones and crystals are purchased from are also important to take into account. Stores that sell religious figurines, statues, and idols are popular for hosting demonic spirits.
Christians can plead the blood of Jesus over their rocks found at a new age store.
The thing about crystals is the you don’t need them for “good vibrations or energy” when you’re filled with the Holy Spirit! The Holy Spirit fills you with the fruit or the spirit, He controls your anxieties and stress. It’s absolutely amazing!
I just gave a girl two bracelets I made of jasper for her birthday as a gift, I noticed she had a matching gemstone bracelet so I thought she would like them. I make jewelry with gemstones sometimes because they are pretty and inexpensive, I know better not to attach significance to them whatsoever. Little did I know when she received them that she would. It was naïve on my part. She told me her parents gave her one made of whatever stone to help her anxiety. And that jasper was good as well. 🤦♀️ I felt like I was just reinforcing her delusional. At least I told her about Jesus, but this was a lesson in itself.
did she convert or repent ? :0
@@Whodatwhathappen no, she believes there are many truths and Christianity is just one of many...
That stinks. They're a nice alternative to plastic.
You weren’t naive. It was a nice thing you did. Maybe it would open up a conversation. You buying her something pretty didn’t make her worse. This is something I’m learning that Satan loves to do. He wants us to believe that our good is harmful so that we will not try anymore. Don’t beat yourself up. ❤️☺️
I had a similar situation when I gave my cousin a plush lion for her baby. She said it was his astrological sign, I just thought it was cute.
A lot of my dad's side of the family dabble in new age practices. I enjoy crystals and gems for their beauty but I used to attribute spiritual properties to certain rocks. So glad that I got saved.
The best cure of rock worship, take a geology class! I am rock hound since I was a little kid, with piles and piles of rocks. Never met a rock I didn't like.
Such a great hobby for kids. Sad that so many of our hobbies as kids are rare these days. Fossil collecting, bug hunting, fishing etc.
😀 it's fun to go down to the beach and find them.
My town has an annual Geology Show. My mom and I went every year. There was always this one Messianic Jewish lady who used her exhibit to spread the Gospel. Everyone who went to look at her gemstone display heard about Jesus as "the Rock that was struck" for our sins. I grew up associating crystals with this woman and her outreach mission. I had to really strip away my personal experience/bias in order to see why people were upset with my decorative crystals.
I love all cristals, I find them very beautiful and amazing on how God makes them. I think of them just the same as a Ruby, Emerald, and Diamond. Thank you for clearing this up for everyone. I love your posting please keep it up and God bless 🙏
I love crystals and gemstone but when I try to buy them they are advertised as some spirtural thing and I don't want it around me since they maybe prayed over or had some ceremony for new age or white magic.
YOUR HAIR IS SO STINKING CUTE!!! I love all your videos, I have learned so much from you! You're awesome, glory to God, thank you for using your voice to shine His light!
I've never been new age, but I will say that when looking at crystal and stone jewelry, if it is marketed as "healing", "protective", "balancing" or any otherwise mystical, I choose not to get those. I believe it is ok to have crystal and stone jewelry and I have some necklaces and bracelets that I love, but I wear them because they're pretty, not because I believe them to have any mystical property.
However, if you were new age and had crystals and stones for their magical or mystical properties, I'm going to say you should probably toss those. Ultimately, that is between you and the Lord, so I'd give it lots of good study and prayer.
Also, if you have come out of the new age deception and are struggling with this, please know that as your sister in Christ who has come out of other types of deception, I am praying for you daily. ❤️
Thank you for bringing up this topic! Before getting reconnected with the Lord, I had bought some crystals at a shop that sold all types of teas, crystals, and such. These shops are often disguised or dressed up as being a holistic or "all natural:" store/shop. I was initially drawn to the look and beauty of the crystals which is fine, but then the owner started telling me how different ones meant different things. She told me to tell her which ones I was drawn to first and she would be able to tell me what those crystals meant. Reflecting back on it now, her doing that reminds me of what we see with tarot cards when people go get "a reading". I don't think it's a coincidence, but those crystals have been misplaced for a couple months and I couldn't tell you where they are. I still think they are beautiful, but because they are often associated with new age beliefs, I am definitely more aware of how having these can be misleading into what I believe.
Thank you for shedding light on all of this!
Just took my daughter to a DO for back/neck pain. For the last few months he’s just been using pressure points to release tension but yesterday he suggested a rock to absorb “bad energy”. My heart sank bc/I had left a chiropractor who had believed these things and had really searched for one who wouldn’t. It’s so disheartening.
I loved rocks, from whene I was a kid. But thene someone said: they have powers. And from that time off I had a headpain whene I opend the closetdoor. And I got more and more interested in the occult stuf. I was so lost. I believed a lot off onhealty stuff.
Whene I met Jezus, he helpt me trouch my house with a garbithbag: I trough it all away!
My stones, books, kaarts... a lot.
3 bags full!
I’m so glad that Jezus is real and He stays, and trustable. A real Rock! 😃👍🏼
So refreshing to hear a like-minded sister in Christ explain this topic! I come from a very legalistic and abusive home, I regularly was condemned and yelled at for wearing makeup, wearing natural jewelry like crystals or gemstones etc, or getting my ears pierced. It's so exhausting to live like that!! Pharisees counting their tassels... 😒
God bless you Melissa. Praise the Lord for the wisdom. In Jesus name amen
This video was uploaded 19 seconds ago & somehow two people still managed to view it before me.
lol
C'mon pick up the pace
This topic is so timely for me! I just had the opportunity to witness to a friend today about the harm of crystals and other new age beliefs. Great video 💗
But that haircut though 😍
I love it, beautifully done!
Right? It's beautiful.
I was just thinking that!
People I know say they are for healing. I used to admire crystals and wanted to wear them. I bought on one specifically to help me speak Infront of people. It didn’t work and I thought how silly of me to even think that. However I got rid of those ones I used to decorate for energy and heating. I still have some that are beautiful. And my mind goes to made by God and they are beautiful.
Melissa, please do a video on vibrations or "vibes" -- pleaseeee, pleaseeee, pleaseeee!
Got an ad for Pandora Jewelry during this video. 😂
Hi Melissa, Very well explained. Guys, on a side note: stay clear of ASMR. This stuff is being used by some supposed christians and or believers. The Holy Spirit immediately revealed its not of God.Its supposed to aide in relaxing. Imagine that.
Good morning Melissa. It's good to point out the tendency of humans to worship things/objects. Whatever it is we give power to or put before God certainly is an idol. Enjoy your videos Sis. 🙏✝️🤍
(Hey, my maiden name is Dougherty👍)
I had a business making jewelry i spent about 20 000 $ on gemstones i still have a lot of it but i never looked at any of it as a spiritual thing.
This advice goes for many things in our lives. Yes we are saved by grace yet let's put other's interest in our daily decisions. Blessings 💝
Good presentation Melissa, I liked your practicality about these minerals and you note of caution for them not to be a stumbling block. l worked as a miner and saw at times amazingly beautiful crystalline minerals deep under the ground. I appreciated their beauty and mathematical precision as an example of God's handiwork and as a little glimpse of his majesty and ordered symmetry. I was surprised that people thought they had spiritual uses instead of just appreciating their beauty and industrial uses. I remember once seeing a wall of purple amethyst and golden hued chalcopyrite, what a sight over 4,500 feet under, but a few days later it was drilled, blasted and hauled to the ore passes. Amazing what comes with the correct mix of elements, chemistry, intense pressure and heat.
Thank you for this. I went to get a massage & after it was done, I seen a basket of crystal rocks & I thought that they were so pretty being that I used to collect rocks as a kid. Well, the therapist proceeds to sell them to me & explained their “healing powers” & how they keep “negative energy” coming to me whether that was thru people, my computer, etc. I bought them & then I felt bad because I just wanted them because they were pretty but I wrestled with this & then thought, this rock came from God & I bought it because of its beauty, nothing else. And, this video confirmed that for me, so thank you again.
Your views on crystals are the exact same as I see them. You basically put into words my exact feelings toward these objects.... thank you!!
You hit the nail on the head with this video, Melissa! I think they are beautiful, and would totally have them decorate my home (I used to collect rocks and semi precious stones), but personally I don’t want anyone getting the wrong idea and thinking I’m “into” the spirituality ppl associated them with these days. Im less worried about being condemned by others and more concerned about showing some form of approval of the New Age. It’s so popularized and I have friends who are dabbling. Breaks my heart.
I agree with your assessment. The only thing I would say in addition is that if the jewelry has occultic intent behind it, no Christian should really have them. Like a chakra necklace or the bag of stones that comes with a list of their "magical" properties.
I used to have crystals and decorated my home and office with them 🙄 So happy I threw them away !
This has come at the right time.. a female friend pf mine is reading books into crystals and talking about Law of Attraction - I think she wanted my approval, but I'm more concerned on the LofA.
I'll be asking questions when we speak again.
Thank you for sharing this video, Melissa
Appreciate you. Even as a kid I was fascinated w the variety and beauty of rocks. I knew Who Made them. Still have and enjoy my collection.
So basically crystal healing is the placebo effect that's something to watch for.
Tonight I got to be the person I needed a few years ago; the person that advises someone that new age isn't as innocent as it appears. Who knows if she'll listen but I hope so. I never had anyone tell me but I wish I had had someone.
You should definitely do a Q&A soon , got lots of questions for you
Ah yes, the moonstone. And the onyx ("black stones repel negative energy and protect the wearer from evil'')...oy! I remember those days and sometimes I cringe at myself! I still appreciate gemstones as a beautiful creation of God - but I praise the creator, not the creation. Actually, this is the premise for the jewelry I make now. I incorporate beautiful gemstones & also Israeli olive wood beads into Christian specific jewelery (crosses, fish, etc) to bring people into the truth that is Christ and as part of my ministry in warning others about the New Age. But I refuse to sell them in any store that promotes metaphysics ideology, or give them to people who I know will use them as a spiritual conduit. It is a tough line to balance for many but I have found I have had no desire or temptation to return to my prior use for them. Praise God!!
God made beautiful rocks. That's all they are. Keep that straight and you can appreciate them with no worries.
So true, our desire to see and touch. So many seeking hearts.. Thanks for sharing your wisdom, Melissa!
...you rock! 😁
I never quite bought their properties but I did buy them before being Christian and now I think I'll find some purely decorative use for them but happy you addressed this.
Thank you for this! I see so many Christians talking about using crystals and energies 😬
From Google: Quartz is a type of crystal used in watches, computers, and other devices to keep time. The quartz crystal vibrates or ticks an exact 60 seconds per minute when electricity is applied to it. The picture shows an example of a type of crystal you'll find in your computer.
Totally agree Melissa..Crystals were a primary aspect of my healing work as a new age practitioner... if you're wearing a crystal, people will believe you're wearing it as an amulet . Christians need to carefully examine their intention for wanting to wear crystals or geodes. However I did keep *some* of my crystals and geodes because I think of God's beautiful creations but only after praying about it and blessing them in the name of the Father Son and Holy Spirit.. I no longer wear crystals or geodes... that includes the bracelets I had made with various stones as a medicine wheel bracelet... God had me cut the bracelet and rearrange the stones into a "resurrection" bracelet that goes from white stone beads to red earth to black and back to white again ☝️
I ignore the witchcraft of it and give it my own purpose without feeling guilty cause I know where I stand. I will enjoy them for what they are, pretty rocks that God made in this beautiful earth
I feel the same way about crystals. So many ppl talk about animals the same way, like owls.
I think crystals are fine unless you charge them, obviously. I didn’t use crystals when I did reiki but I had a Metatron (🥴) necklace and other Buddhist stuff that I quickly got rid of
I just came out of the new age in august, and the first thing I did was throw out my bracelets since I used them as protective talismans. Then I packed up all my quartz crystals and gemstone bags that I used to carry everywhere. I felt so free when I did that. I now know that I was a slave to fear and superstition. I still have a few decorative crystals displayed, but I no longer “charge” them in the full moon, or attach any kind of worship/powers to them. Will I ever wear gemstone beads again? I don’t know. I’ll have to pray about that. For now, I will abstain since I am a new Christian.
Funny enough, this topic arose for me after hearing Beyonce sing that she "charges her crystals in a full moon" which I have gotten into interesting conversations with people about this verse (and would love to hear others' thoughts on it as well). Thanks for this video!
She also says she uses the pages of the Bible to plug her menses. No joke. Beyoncé is definitely not who you think she is or who she used to be. Be careful there. My spirit physically rejects her videos and concerts (I used to be a fan and watch vocal compilations but since being saved I can’t.) it’s pretty well known what she is, and Jay z as well. I don’t say this to be mean, I feel ultimately she was a victim of the evil music industry. That verse I said is in the beginning of the lemonade video, and stay prayed up if you watch it 🙏
@@laylascott6096 Right?! And it's so frustrating to see how she wears the cross while offending the Holy Book.
👏👍 may God keep blessing you, my prayers for you
I appreciate your balanced peespective!🙏🏽🕊❤
Great clarification 👌 thankyou. I like crystals but they're just pretty
I love how you mentioned Romans1:25, because I'm doing a study through Roman's right now. I was like "Yes" that's exactly right! 💯
Awesome video👍
Your curls are fire in this video. Hair goals.
words and thoughts are powerful, its what you stet as your intentions
Great reference on Paul and why would we be worshiping the creation instead of the creator!
I’ve always collected crystals and rocks since I was younger, but I got mixed up with a friend that does Tarot and cleansing of crystals with the Full moon. Not thinking that it was so wrong I started cleansing my crystals too and wearing them for a special purpose to protect me from “bad energies.” My eyes have been opened to the truth and I’m back to my Christian faith after being so lost for at least a couple of years now. I feel like I’m back home. Praise Jesus for coming after me and not stopping until he brought his missing lamb back to the flock ❤
What about salt lamps? Are they used in the new age? Do they fit into this crystal category? I've been told by people who use them that they "change the charge of the ions in the air to promote healing", but I've yet to see a verified study that substantiates this claim.
So I recently watched a video of a guy talking about and testing salt lamps. In it he talked about how it is proven that ions help with depression and positive, happy feelings. There are many ions around water falls and things in nature, so ions are natural (God made) and helpful to well being. But the test on the salt lamps showed no change in ions.
I am playing it safe..i collect shells..i live at the beach..I can make pretty things with them..I appreciate the fact that every shell I have has had at one time a living creature in it. ...that blows my mind..God made this beautiful thing a home for a time to a beautiful animal and in due time that animal passed and I have what is left.. I am at awe of the creator. I have black shells and white shells and different kinds of shapes and sizes..God is a full of wonder and awe.
Melissa, can you do a response video to a youtube called "Love covered life"? I think she's a New-Ager.
Gems are pretty. Enjoy them as you enjoy nature, wildlife. Look and think of the One that created them.
Crystals are used in electronic components that go into technology like satellites (Crystal oscillator is an example). They have a use other than pretty, but not spiritually.
I have several stones in my home that we found while in our garden. We think they are beautiful and nothing more.
Amen! We are not to be a stumbling block to others.
You also still need to be careful where you are getting this "jewelry" or "pretty rock" from--could this item have been cursed by the person you are purchasing it from or receiving it from as a gift. Be careful what you bring into your home or put on your body. Use discernment.
There was a girl At church who tried to tell me that crystals were alive, when I disagreed she vehemently said they were alive. This girl was confused about a lot of things and didn't listen to any counter argument. She moved to another city and we lost contact.
You mentioned there are no studies to prove crystals have energies or power. I'm a mum of young kids, I would love to do more research on that but I struggle to find time. You have more knowledge and experience on this topic. Energies and vibrations do exist in physics and new agers try to use that as a scientific fact to prove we can shift moods/energies etc. I would really appreciate a video with more details. How do we separate the two? Physics and mystical/spiritual. What does the research say? I feel like I lack knowledge to be able to have a proper conversation with a New Ager.
Thank you for making your videos, they have been helpful to me. ❤
I love your messages. You probably have no control over your ads, but thought you should know the ad preceding your message was for some magical obsidian feng shui bracelet from Buddha Power Store that has had rituals performed over them. 😳. Keep telling the truth!
So true. I worked with a lady who worshipped the lights on her Christmas tree...really.
I used to collect rocks from gift shops and rock shops, but I decided if there is anyone who would see my collection wonder for even a moment about my beliefs on account of that, I don't want them anymore, and I got rid of everything. I also chose some time ago not to wear any jewelry anymore because I decided I do not need or want any attention from adornment, so that removed the jewelry ones too.
Appreciate this video and love your hair :)
Great video :)
I started getting into Wicca and loved crystals as a teen, I believed they had "magical" properties. Now it's hard to not think of my old beliefs from all those years back, especially when I see them in certain jewelry shapes. It stinks because I *love* how they look and it's gorgeous as jewelry, but man is it hard, same thing with moon jewelry.
I know it's God's creation and nothing bad, but it's been so twisted that I wouldn't want people to think I'm into New Age/Wicca still. I figured it would have been better to remove them due to possible temptation as I'm fighting the slight longing to go back to neo-paganism, even with my stance against it.
I think of playing in the creeks of the North Georgia Mountains and looking for cool rocks and crystals haha
🙂 I miss going to my grandma's house that was further south than me and playing in the creeks and dirt for rocks. Fun times.
Could you talk about essential oils sometime? It just kinda weirds me out, and I’m not sure if their is any validity to the claims I hear about them...
My guess is that it is similar to gems/crystals. They are natural by-products of plants and have been used in perfumery and medicine for centuries. It is when the purely physical properties of them get wrapped up in mystic and spiritual claims that the problem occurs. Someone more qualified than I would have to speak to it fully though.
I’m pretty sure she might have or maybe I’m confusing her with Doreen Virtue. The ex-New Age Christian community is growing beautifully!
If the oil blend claims something that cannot be achieved by a plant, like financial prosperity, then it's not an oil, it's a potion. I use lemongrass oil to repel insects, orange oil and other oils with disinfecting properties in my cleaners and lavender or frankincense for a calming scent when I'm stressed. But I stay away from oils that proclaim to change my life in any way.
Well said, Thanks!
Very well said. Thank you sister.
Beautifully said 🙏🏾
I’m in agreement with this 90%. My family does not celebrate holloween but we love bats and black cats and pumpkins which God created! However, what about the whole spiritual housecleaning of not bringing into our home objects that may have curses placed on them to influence our households family members? Some of this jewelry may be made by proclaiming witches who have placed curses on the items. We know this is done on music. I think you should have spiritual discernment on what and who you buy from. Just a thought....
Good message, Melissa! 2 thumbs up😉
Good word, Melissa
Thank you for this! I have been collecting crystals since I was a child. I have them all over my house and office. I even wear them. Why? Because I think they are a beautiful reminder of what God can create. I don't believe they will attract money, love, etc. I have the same views with essential oils - which I use daily. Again, another wonderful creation of God. I wear Patchouli everyday. I love how it smells. Although, I must say.... cinnamon oil keeps roaches away. THAT alone is a blessing!!! 😃
Much ❤️ from Texas!
Take the word “Crystals” and swap it with “flowers”....
If I decorate my house with “flowers” and that brings me joy - that’s fine.
However, if I start praying to my “flowers” or looking to them for spiritual guidance - that’s idolatry.
I like that.
Thanks! :) I have my moments lol
God bless and thank you for what you do.
I feel the teaching of Paul's sacrificial food isn't brought up enough. Although it's wise to discern if something makes you or your brother stumble, it is perfectly fine to use God's creation. Many Christians run to fear and aren't planted on the truth when it comes to objects used for worship. Thank you for this video!
Crystals have vibrations- see quartz in watches and crystals used to make AM radios. How do vibrations affect us is the real question and how can/do crystals affect the vibrations?
We're just beginning to understand some of the health benefits of certain light waves and ranges. Much light isn't visible to the naked eye but it doesn't mean it's not there or has no impact on human, animal or plant health. I don't know about vibrations but I think perhaps different types of crystals interact with different types of light in different ways which can bring about subtle changes in our health. At any rate they are part of God creation and as such are safe to use provided we don't make an idol of them.
Melissa can you do a video on trauma associated with all these practices and being able to connect with God in a healthy way?
Nice Melissa. Well said sister.
Great video Melissa.. I used to live by Rose quartz.. to attract love. I carried worrystones, slept with Obsidian under my pillow. I've repented, totally.
I did have my faith in their power. Oddly, I had awful dreams, no love came, and I got hugely sick. I regret deeply.. I was a #hotmess .. then went straight to Bethel. Lady was talking of her crystal pendant. It confused me! I was the one charging them up in moonlight. I think I was deluded. Christ called this Prodigal back. Hallelujah 🙏🇬🇧🕊✝️👍😇💕🤲
