In The Beginning Frankincense

Hello All
I'm John, Angie's husband. You may recall the past blogs of my 2007 journey as my family and I walked through the valley of death holding God's hand as He healed me of cancer. Well now she has encouraged me to join her in rejuvenating our blog site.

As you know we are helping and educating people about Essential Oils. We are very excited about our new adventure and the results we have already enjoyed in just a short time.

You may be wondering why I titled this "In The Beginning" so I will tell you. My first series of blogs will be about the "Ancient Oils of the Bible" Think about it , when God created the garden and Adam and Eve everything that was needed was in the garden. At that time there were no doctors or medicine as we know it today. It was all natural and made by God. It can't get any better that that.

So I'm going to introduce you to 12 oils of the Bible. I will give you a brief history of the oil and some of the things it was used for. I hope you not only enjoy exploring these ancient oils but may find them to help you in some way.

"DISCLAIMER" Will be found at the end of this post. Please read it
