I wonder what the Divine was trying to tell me when in 2002, I was bitten by a brown recluse spider and needed intravenous antibiotics, 2003 stung by a wasp and needed epinephrine, and 2004 stung by a scorpion and was fine after a mini panic attack and Benedryl.

Stay indoors?

I was a little bugged out by spiders for a while, but not the great outdoors.

Do you have a chronic disease?

It ain't the wasp, most likely, but the various medications that she got in response to her bites.

I did not ask the Divine for this.

You got what you needed.

For a tick of the clock minds came together and wondered why. In that single tick of wondering why, nothing else mattered. Being homeless, out of work, divided, money - none of it ... for a single tick it was unity in grief. It happens. We get single ticks of joy, too, though.. don't forget that.

This is the first time in nearly forty years that I have been stung by a wasp; the second time in my life. My hand for a couple of centimeters now is getting thick.

I did not ask the Divine for this. Did someone else?

Does someone hate me?

It happened after I started my poll on people suffering from Rule Obsessed Disorder earlier today. Is there a spiritual connection? Did one of the ROD people see my poll and spiritually instruct the Divine to hurt me?



did this entity have a staff or a fork?

I am just wondering why it was only one wasp. Considering some of the statements made by the op in the past, IF God were responsible, it would have been a swarm.

The Divine is never responsible: that would be interference. The Divine merely facilitates.

Google image "brown recluse spider bites" to see what happens when one doesn't get antibiotics soon enough.

Better read the relevant posts again, Kalikshama. You are barking under the wrong tree.

Yourself.

I asked whether you had a chronic disease and you did not deny it. If you had spiritually desired help against such a chronic disease, the Divine likely responded by creating an opportunity for you to be treated with the appropriate medication by arranging you to be attacked by such bugs as would require that medication to be administered to you.

Well, not responding immediately is not a denial. While I don't have any chronic diseases, I have a few chronic conditions, which were unaffected by the stings or treatments.

In that case I do not have an answer to your question.
