 I really have to vow to just let any stories be used to heal and to bless, if I'm going to tell any story, it has to be to heal and to bless. And not about maintaining a personality identity or trying to polish and adore another personality identity. I had this experience with my grandmother Lillian who, as she got up in years for them further, she was diagnosed with dementia, but oftentimes she would just go back into a certain period of time, like in the 19-teens or the 1920s, and particularly, and then retell a particular story from that era over and over and over and over. It would almost be like she would get set off and then she would start telling stories, and she obviously would enjoy telling the stories because sometimes she would tell the same stories to people over and over and over. And I prayed on that because I loved her so dearly and I was going deeper and deeper within. And so one time when I came together with her, and she launched into one of her stories from back in that era or whatever, at the end of the story I said to her, what was the point of that story? And she just said, the point? What was the point? Does it have a point? I said, well, I think stories have a point. And I said, she loved Jesus, she adored Jesus, and I said, you notice what Jesus, when he would tell his stories, there was always a point. She said, you're right, every story he told had a point, because I said he was teaching, he was demonstrating how to live, and he was giving all these examples, and he really told a lot of stories, the prodigal son, she said, oh yeah, I remember, I went through a few of them. She said, that's very important, it has to have a point. So I said, so what was the point of the story you just told me? She said, I don't know if it has a point. I said, that's interesting, because now with the context of Jesus, she wanted to be telling stories with a point, and she had a story with no point. So she was like, I don't know, I don't think it has a point. She was just like a little child, because we were joining in love, in purpose, and she was joining with me and looking, honestly, open-eyed, and honestly, to see if her story had a point. And she said, I don't think it has a point. So I finally said, so really, there's no need to tell it, and she said, I guess not. And she wasn't upset, I wasn't upset, we simply joined together in joy, and love, and happiness, which is our point, and that was a point of everything. And it was really good, and then even other times, if she would start to tell something, I could just say, what is the point? And she would then stop, and she would say, ah, there is no point, and then it was the way for her breaking the pattern. Even though it was a deeply ingrained pattern, love is stronger than the patterns. And it's really all a reflection of our mind, if we're very sincere, and we follow the guidance of the Spirit, and we're open-minded, then every single encounter can be a witness of that love. We don't have to think, we have to put up with anything, even putting up with stories. And it's interesting, I was just in South Africa, a gentleman from down there, he's come through the circuit of breathing technique and re-birthing, and he's really got it ingrained. Now his mind about storytelling is not good, and so when we were down there in December for a while, he got to experience some parables that were used in purpose to kind of give an example or shine a light on something to heal and to bless, and he said, yeah, I'm glad I got that experience of that, because I was pretty closed-minded around stories. I just thought nothing good can come from any story, so he was able to understand that there were some stories that were being used by the Spirit in a helpful way.
