The Chemicalization of America

What is chemicalization?  Isn't that where you mix chemicals together?  How can there be a chemicalization of a place?  Don't you need chemicals to have chemicalization?   Or, like me, haven't you ever wondered why you might have a reaction to a particular pharmaceutical in your body and someone else might not?  Why?  Don't we all have the same stuff inside us?  Isn't the chemical make up of every person the same?  How is it possible then that one person has a reaction to chemicals in a particular pharmaceutical compound and someone else doesn't?  Aren't we all the same?

Chemicalization, with chemicals any way, will happen when two or more chemicals get mixed together.  When they don't work together, they bubble up and the mixture may even spill over.  It may even begin to smell badly.  When you consider how often chemists have experimented with chemical mixtures and watched them bubble up and over, those chemical reactions, perhaps, don't seem quite so bad.  But when you take a pharmaceutical and you break out in hives, you know it's bad.  Right??  How about when you have a herxheimer reaction to a body detox, is that bad?  It's not uncommon to experience head and body aches and pains, nausea and other symptoms during a detox.

So what happens when we begin to challenge old thought and behavior patterns?  Jesus said that you can't put new wine into old wine skins.  What do you think he meant by that?  The old skins had already experienced the fermenting process with old wine.  New wine still had to ferment.  New wine was put into new wine skins so that the skins could withstand the bubbling up of the fermenting process of the new wine.  Perhaps Jesus meant that you can't put new ideas where old ideas have taken hold without something bubbling up.

This is my opinion, and mind you I know for sure that I am no expert, but I do have an opinion.  Have you ever tried to break a bad habit?  How easy is that?  When we challenge old thought patterns, that are deeply set in our mind, our own ego fights back.  Another thought is that our body actually fights back.  Our body is full of cells, which according to science, each have consciousness.  Thoughts and feelings begin bubbling up in us as a reaction as we begin to replace the old habit with the new habit.

Now assume we are trying to change mass consciousness, a momentous task to be sure!  An attempt to change mass thoughts and habits, which are deeply set in millions of people, will be met with the same kind of resistance in mass that our own ego and/or body displays.  The chemicalization of America is the mixing and bubbling up of all the emotions and feelings in the mass consciousness of America. 

Chemicalization can also be a healing process.  When I do a detox, I know that my body will probably have a herxheimer reaction.  I know in order to heal that I must go through the reaction.  In the case of a herxheimer reaction, the bad stuff is dying off.

I like the way Emmet Fox described the healing process of chemicalization.  "It seems as though everything begins to go wrong at once.  This may be disconcerting, but it is really a good sign.  Suppose your whole world seems to rock on its foundation.  Hold on steadily, and let it rock, and when the rocking is over, the picture will have reassembled itself into something much nearer to your heart's desire."

Chemicalization has to happen.  The world is moving into the age of light.  Spiritual transformation is happening on a grand scale.  It's part of the process.  America is experiencing chemicalization right here, right now.  

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.
