I have been wanting to write about In Your Face ever since I got home Saturday night. But there is so much to write about that I don’t know where to start. Just a little earlier today, when Levina asked me about my prayer time during worship Saturday night- I just then found a description for how I had felt for a part of the night.
When the youth pastors went around praying for us with The Vine Band playing in the background, I layed my head on Tim’s shoulder and let him speak to me. I stopped thinking and let God do the speaking. With my head resting on Tim, tears started rolling down my cheeks. Before I knew it, I was crying out to him. I just wanted to hold on to the moment, Hold on to Him, hug tight and never let go.
It felt like God was holding me. He spoke through me and held me tight through Tim. It was like he was saying, just cry, let everything out because I am here and you don’t have to worry. You don’t have to pretend to be fine.
The warmth and the secureness I felt was incredible.
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7
In Christ I pray,
