Subject: The “Blaising” Black Hole

I was sitting with my best friend, M, as he watched a program on “black holes.” I was working on a song (“Fisher of Men”) when my even more-best-friend, Holy Spirit, Got my attention.  

“Those aren’t too far from what ‘hell’ is like,” He Began.

(Rabena (“our LORD”), not M.

And btw, this isn’t audible—and isn’t always in words; for example, He “Speaks” to me in pictures quite often.

Anyway, one of the reasons I know It IS God (and not me or a demon or insanity) is coz the entire conversation or revelation shows up in my head at once, rather than in real time.

Meaning it’s as though I’ve read and comprehended the it ALL… in just a fraction of a second!

…ok, I guess that’s not evidence at all, is it, lol. Anyway. So…)

Hell as a black hole, eh?

Hmm…

I became uncomfortable, because I’ve always hated anything whose end I could not see or perceive or quantify. (Or understand.)

(Of course, I ain’t going to hell (thank You, Jesus!), so it wasn’t that sort of fear. But it was still an unpleasant thought.)

Anyway, as it happened, Rabena Was not at all Finished with Revelations for Today!

(I am never sure whether what appears to be a revelation From Him is actually common knowledge already, or has only ever been told to me (or me and a few others), but in any case, they are always “news to me.”) 

Anyway…

He Went on: 

“Those ‘hell holes’ also appear in a place that your bro’s program doesn’t show: the human soul.

THAT is the “Me-Shaped Vacuum” y’all keep hearing about.

Imagine it as a tiny black hole installed in your chest at birth. 

Infinite, or infinite enough, ‘tis… even though it’s smaller than the tip of a needle!

But don’t let its nearly-undetectable size fool ye, my girl; that thing be ravenous and starving at all times—a bottomless pit from Day One. 

And once you start feeding it? It grows.

It gets bigger. Not deeper—it’s already bottomless, right?

But it increases in diameter, takes up more space in your chest.

Metaphorically speaking, of course. 

But just imagine it going from the size of a pinprick to a jelly bean to the size of a… Buick! 

Don’t believe Me?  

Try throwing relationships or money or sports cars into it; it’ll never get any closer to being filled.

If anything, you’ll have to keep throwing bigger and bigger things in there each day—just to reach the same baseline level of “normal,” just to be able to think straight or even breathe!

And if you think you’ll get that stuff back once the thing hath finished snacking on it, survey says: “you wish, chickie.”

That foul thing will and does fully consume anything and everything that gets thrown in there.

Metaphorically. 

Or not? 

…Heh. That’s classified!

What isn’t classified is this, though: The only thing that can fill up infinity, or near-infinity, is something that’s infinite, too.

SomeONE Who Be Infinite, in all directions. Ahem.”

“Fascinating, my LORD. So…the loser hellishness in my heart was filled up By You, Who Are Basically Heaven.”

“I AM.” 

“So…I’m lighter and not weighed-down by gloom anymore coz I lost the things I’d been tossing into the hell-hole, AND I gained YOUR MARVELLOUS Light?”

“Yepperooni!” 

M—who had begun to gaze at me in worry for a few moments (before I noticed and filled him in on the revelation)—and I both felt immediately and simultaneously compelled to pray for those who still have that darkness in their soul, and we spent a good 45 minutes or so doing just that. 

(This all happened over two and a half years ago, actually, but we haven’t stopped praying for those in darkness; praise Be To God!)

Anyway!

Much Love In Him Whom we serve—and prayers of strength for all Of The Faithful, and prayers that He Draw all humans To Him (or, rather, that all humans would respond To His Loving and Generous Offer With a big YES! :))
