| | So....
Being deeply immersed into some of those profound thoughts that I always have (yeah, because you all know how profound I am.) ; I recalled an experience I had ohhh, probably about a couple of years ago; & thought I would share it...
My youth group was visiting a neighboring church one night because there was a special guest speaker who was visiting there & was going to be praying with everyone & all that fun stuff. You know what I mean. *wink wink*
ok enough of that. So we went over there. I don't remember the guy's name but he gave a message and then started ministering i.e. praying for everyone individually.
I was kind of skeptical. I don't remember exactly what I was going through, I just remember being kind of fed up with SOMETHING at that point in life, & was needing some kind of real, tangible evidence that God was getting me through. I bet you all know what I mean. I just needed something very clear. A sign.
So I went up there and stood there waiting. My turn came. The guy came over , stood in front of me. Put his hand on my forehead. Yep, same routine as always. He started into it, I don't know what he said, it was just a general blessing. Not what I wanted. So then I guess he was feeling like I was done, & he gave a little push on my forehead so I would fall down like everyone always does.
But I just wasn't having it. I had asked God for a sign. I didn't want to fall down. I didn't feel anything at all. So I refused to fall down. I was thinking, there's nothing happening here. This isn't God...
But then, & even now 2 years later I feel like crying as I write this; he said:::::::::::::::: 'Oh, my goodness. The Lord's telling me that you are a DANCER!!' & started laughing and going on about this like he was so amazed by it. That I was His dancer! That I just loved to dance for him, and when I danced everyone saw God through me. That it made Him so happy when he saw me dancing for Him.
Gee now I am crying really. See how strong this was for me? This guy had never seen me dance. No one came up and whispered it into his ear that I am a dancer. He couldn't have known. I don't know if anyone remembers, but I was a HARD CORE dancer. I LOVE to dance. I took dance lessons even. I was ALWAYS up there at youth group whipping around with flags & ribbons.
Do you get how I felt at that moment?
This is the single, most important thing in my memory that has ever, ever happened in my life. It proved to me without a doubt that God is REAL!!! Yeah, sorry. I know, I was supposed to have faith all along. I did though. I had faith, but there was always that tiiiiny piece of my mind that wasn't sure whether all this was just a story. Don't tell me you never felt that way. I'm sure we all either feel that way, or felt that way until something like this happened that proved it, without a doubt.
Anyway that is IT.
Could you really ask for anything more anyway?
