Nice choice - olive. I like it. Is it stoned, because it doesn't have a seed or because it's sitting on the bottom of a martini?!

You said it! The oil used for anointing and powered by the Holy Spirit for freedom from unclean spirits, for healing, and for consecration. High value indeed! Ty for stopping by and leaving a comment! Xo
