Channeling: A God Given Plant

Now, you don't have to be religious or even believe in God to inner stand that there seems to be a beautiful and divine reason for everything that exists within nature.
Did you know that every single mammal on earth is born with an endocannabinoid system?
Did you know that it works as a lock and key system with receptors for the cannabis plant?
I find so much divinity in the fact that many herbs were put on this planet to benefit our health and wellness.
Hippocrates, the father of medicine, understood and taught that our bodies are carbon-based...therefore, can only process and breakdown carbon-based things, not chemical based things.
Cannabis has proven itself time and time again to be a highly medicinal herb for a wide variety of ailments and mental health issues.
Many are still stuck in the taboo, reefer madness mentality, that cannabis is the "the devil's lettuce."
Don't get me wrong, we've come so far, but not far enough considering we still have people behind bars for cannabis offenses.
Mothers being judged for using cannabis throughout motherhood, athletes becoming addicted to pain medications because they have no other alternative, people turning to highly addictive anxiety medications for PTSD/depression...
the list goes on.
Cannabis is much more than just the THC molecule, which many believe to be the more recreational aspect of this plant.
There are a little over 100 cannabinoids that make up this medicinal plant.
Every single one of them with a different job and benefit to our built in lock and key system.
THC does provide the psychedelic effects of the plant, however it also has a few other uses that do not produce those effects. For example, when used in a topical cream, it can provide immense pain relief with zero psychedelic effects.
When present in a tincture that contains mostly CBD, (for example, 30:1 ratio) the THC is only present to help activate the CBD and does not provide recreational or psychedelic effects.
You don't need to smoke to consume cannabis, you don't even need to really incorporate the THC into your consumption to reap the medicinal benefits.
As we age, our body naturally begins to produce less and less cannabinoids for our body to uptake. This is why cannabis can be highly beneficial, especially the older we get. I believe in this plant and it's ability to heal in more ways than one and I believe everyone should be utilizing this plant to some extent.
What brought me to this topic, was recently being asked by a friend how I would respond to being asked about God's approval or disapproval of the cannabis plant. This person is a beautiful woman of God and she was being asked by someone else the question stated above...
My answer to what I would say was simple,
"If God made us all perfectly in his divine image and gave us this built in endocannabinoid system, THEN provided us the cannabis plant here on earth that provides us all the cannabinoids we could ever need...
don't you think it would make sense to utilize it?"
To add, I don't believe the bible was meant to be read/interpreted literally, however it is a beautiful book with a lot of good guidance.
These verses below are not specifically calling the herb, plant, or seed cannabis...but I do find them interesting depending on how you interpret them. Just some food for thought.
Bible Verses
My wish for every human being is at the very least, to be able to understand how this plant operates within our bodies and how it can assist with a plethora of ailments within our mind, body, and soul. We were literally born with an ability to intake this healing herb. There are too many people that still refuse to even attempt to understand this plant. We still have a lot of work to do. So, spread the Good News and pay it forward, always.
With deep gratitude & love always,

It’s wild that so many people don’t understand that we have a built in endo-cannabinoid system. Love this!
