Check The Lost And Found My Mind Is Missing

The holiday season is approaching and Shirley has spread herself too thin, as usual, among Christmas shopping, her kids' recitals, and office parties. But a few angels--including members of her own family--go a long way to remind Shirley what Christmas is all about. Originally self-published in 1996.

Have you ever wondered if there is more to life then we can see? Are there really other dimensions within our world? If so, who or what resides there? Do angels and demons truly exist? If so, where are they, and how do they function in our world? What does the Bible say about angels and demons? Is there a biblical mystery that has been overlooked? Lost and Found-My Journey to a Saved Soul will answer these questions and more through uncovering one of the mysteries that has been hidden since the fall of mankind. This mystery is broken down through God given biblical revelation regarding the unseen world. This mystery became a living reality when Michelle Damico and her husband, Chris Damico, entered into the unseen realm on a forty-day journey. They had experienced firsthand what it was like to function within another dimension, also known as the spirit world. It was through, unknowingly, opening a door into forms of witchcraft that entered them into the spirit realm, being led to a shaman and tricked into a ritual that they believed was a marital ceremony. This led to her mother being spiritually attacked, therefore, triggering a subarachnoid hemorrhage and her mother's near-death experience; Michelle's husband's possession and cry to be institutionalized; and her children being attacked by spirits that desired to possess their soul. Their home was overpowered with evil and deep darkness, and there was nobody they could turn to but Jesus. All glory and honor to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for delivering us out of the darkness and into his marvelous light. Giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints (God's people) in the Light. For He has rescued us and has drawn us to Himself from the dominion of darkness, and has transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption [because of His sacrifice, resulting in] the forgiveness of our sins [and the cancellation of sins' penalty]. He is the exact living image [the essential manifestation] of the unseen God [the visible representation of the invisible], the firstborn [the preeminent one, the sovereign, and the originator] of all creation. -Colossians 1:12-15 (AMP)

One Monday morning in April, a middle-aged writer walks into her living room to water the plants and finds a woman standing beside her potted fig tree. Dressed in a navy blue trench coat and white Nikes, the woman introduces herself as "Mary. Mother of God.... You know. Mary." Instead of a golden robe or a crown, she arrives bearing a practical wheeled suitcase. Weary after two thousand years of adoration and petition, Mary is looking for a little R & R. She's asked in for lunch, and decides to stay a week. As the story of their visit unfolds, so does the story of Mary-one of the most complex and powerful female figures of our time-and her changing image in culture, art, history, as well as the thousands of recorded sightings that have placed her everywhere from a privet hedge to the dented bumper of a Camaro. As this Everywoman and Mary become friends, their conversations, both profound and intimate, touch upon Mary's significance and enduring relevance. Told with humor and grace, Our Lady of the Lost and Found is an absorbing tour through Mary's history and a thoughtful meditation on spirituality, our need for faith, and our desire to believe in something larger than ourselves.
