1 Samuel 28:  15 Samuel said to Saul, “Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?”

Saul is going to fight the Philistines. He has been out pouch with God, and no one can assure him that God will be with him. So he finds a medium in Endor, and he goes to her in disguise. She is able to contact Samuel,echo tells Saul that he will lose and his son's will die. 

I am fascinated by the medium. This story tells me that people can contact the dead, but Samuel sure isn't happy about being contacted. This comes after I realized that it was 2 years ago today that my mother and I traveled to her brother's memorial service. I lost her a few months later. They are with the angels now, and that is as it should be. We should not disturb them, but we will see them again when the time is right. 

Prayer:  Lord, I am reassured that my loved ones rest with You. I know that someday I'll be there too. Thanks for the gift of Faith. I pray for those who lack Faith. Help me to see how to guide others to You. 
Amen
