My story with God
After my marriage breakdown in September07, My sister (a born again Christian) invited me to her church's Christmas carol service. I was so awe struck and energized by the feeling and life in the church I decided to go on the following Sunday, where I also enrolled on their explore course, which is an explore Christianity and see if it’s for you, type of thing. I have been going to church every Sunday since and asked Jesus to be my saviour and lord and became a Christian on the 16th of Feb. I have also been going Monday nights to explore, and I also decided to go to the once a month encounter evening (basically a prayer evening) and on the 4th of march one of the leaders of our church asked if anyone wanted to be prayed over, for whatever reason, and to come to the front if they did, I felt this great need to go to the front. a lady called Irene (one of the ministry team cam and put her hand on my shoulder and held my hand with the other, and the instant she started to pray, I felt this pressure in my chest like I was filling up to burst, but I couldn’t breath, and even though my eyes were closed tight praying that the lord would fill me with his presence, I was blinded by a pure white brilliant light, then I just started crying with so much joy I really felt like I was going to burst. Irene and I stood there and prayed for quite a while as others were praying and being prayed over, and just before we let go of each other, she said "you know as I was praying for you , you were really praying for me and I actually felt the lord go into you" which made me cry even more as I had not said anything to her about what I had experience and it made it even more AWESOME, because not only did it make it special for this lady who I had never met until that moment but it confirmed what I had felt was real and not just the emotion of the moment.
Our God truly is an AWESOME GOD and I will love Him with every breath from now till eternity.

    If you woke up this morning
    with more health than illness,
    you are more blessed than the
    million who won't survive the week.

    If you have never experienced
    the danger of battle,
    the loneliness of imprisonment,
    the agony of torture or
    the pangs of starvation,
    you are ahead of 20 million people
    around the world.

    If you can attend a church meeting
    without fear of harassment,
    arrest, torture, or death,
    you are more blessed than almost
    three billion people in the world.

    If you have food in your refrigerator,
    clothes on your back, a roof over
    your head and a place to sleep,
    you are richer than 75% of this world.

    If you have money in the bank,
    in your wallet, and spare change
    in a dish someplace, you are among
    the top 8% of the world's wealthy.

    If your parents are still married and alive,
    you are very rare, especially in this World
    today.

    If you hold up your head with a smile
    on your face and are truly thankful,
    you are blessed because the majority can,
    but most do not.

    If you can hold someone's hand, hug them
    or even touch them on the shoulder,
    you are blessed because you can
    offer God's healing touch.

    If you can read this message,
    you are more blessed than over
    two billion people in the world
    that cannot read anything at all.

    You are so blessed in ways
    you may never even know.
