Beautiful Spirits

I am currently working my way through Skattie what are you wearing’s blog list. Today I discovered Kwesi Abbensetts a photographer. Some of the stuff comes across a bit smelly, but there are a few images that really spoke to me like the one above. After a glances inspection I realised the back drop is a wall blanketed in leaves. And then depending on where you go first you see an afro and then eyes, I can see four pairs. There is one in the centre with red eyes, oh she is scary.  It all takes me to a word I received today 1 John 4: 1-6 :

Dear Friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. This is how you can recognise the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.

You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world and, and the world listens to them.

We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognise the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood.
