Revelation 13: 1-3 | The Beast Emerges (Question at the End)

[b][center]Revelation[/center][/b]
13 • "I saw a beast with ten horns and seven heads rising out of the blackness of the sea. On its horns hung ten crowns, and on its heads were inscribed blasphemous names. 2 • This beast was like a leopard, its feet were like the claws of a bear, and its mouth was like the jaws of a lion. The dragon bestowed it with his power and his throne and his great authority. 3 • One of the beast’s heads appeared to have suffered a fatal blow, but its mortal wound had somehow been healed. Amazed at the miracle and its power, all the earth followed the beast."

I do.

Charge of the Morrigan
I am the Morrigan, Great Queen, and Queen of Sovereignty, and I am called by many names. I am Nemain who is called Frenzy, Badb the Battle Crow, and Macha the Raven. I am these and they are me and so much more. I am of the Tuatha de Danann, and I fought in their battles against the Firbolg and the Fomorians for the land which you now call Ireland.

Come to me when you have need of my strength, for I offer courage and wisdom to those who dare to seek me. My lessons are seldom easy, but if you surrender your fear and remain true to yourself, your path will always be open before you. I bring you the gifts of sorcery and prophecy and I lead you from this life to the next.

Many may fear me because I do stride forth onto the battlefields and collect the souls of the dead and dying. It is I who will lead them from this life to the next. They fear because they have yet to see the pain and strife at battle’s end.

They believe that I am the cause of death and misery, dear children, when it is very much the opposite that is true. I am the sweet release from pain when the body is broken. Your mortal frames are only meant to last for so long, dear ones, and you burn ever so brightly while you live. When the breath that you take becomes a struggle and it is too much effort to draw another, I will be there and you will know my gift.

So, come and dance in my name and I will accept your pleasure and your pain, your joy and your sorrow, your triumphs and your defeats. If you have the will to call on me, I will be with you as at the beginning and evermore.
