Hello, my name is Kiera and I just created my first ever online profile that has no traceable ties to my real (human anyway) identity. This is really a first for me, but if it makes you guys feel any better (and I hope it does) Kiera is a shortened version of one of my true names. I don't usually tell people that either, so I guess this is two firsts for me.
In the past few years, I've gone from being a relatively ordinary human Christian who just happens to talk to angels and other spirits, to a still relatively ordinary human Christian who believes she was reincarnated several times simply because she has work to do, to slightly less ordinary, though still human Christian who believes she might also be incarnate angel who came here because (this is a theme for me) she has work to do. . Even more disturbing than that (to me) is that I'm currently being called to delve deeper into the memories of my other self, and I'm uncovering the fact that since I've been human, I've been flying under the heavenly radar so to speak, even when I'm home between trips here, and half of heaven either has no idea who I am, knows me only by my other name, or they have no idea where I've been for the past 2,000 years. There are a few folks, of course, who knew what was going on, but more often than not I'm finding people suddenly becoming angry at me for "covering it up" for so long.
There were reasons for all of it, of course, and God knew exactly where I was and what I was doing, but I've also realized I have very few people I can talk to about all of it. I'm looking for new friends.
I feel like I'm going slightly nuts.
I also used to pride myself on being a liberal, but thoroughly orthodox Christian...... now I'm just an Episcopalian whose priest keeps telling her she's not really a liberal, she just *thinks she is because he has distorted idea of what a liberal is. (I think he's really a liberal, he just THINKS he isn't...so we're even.) I'm not going anywhere on that. I think God put me in that church for a reason, and it wasn't just the gorgeous architecture and fantastic stained glass. They let me be myself....and more important than that, they let me be quiet without allowing me to be a passive worshiper. (The liturgy requires RESPONSE from the people.)
As for my theology, I believe everything in the Nicene creed and a [shadow=red,left,300]whole lot of stuff that isn't. [/shadow]
So here I am... looking for a place to talk.
Did I mention I feel slightly nuts?
