Encountering God in a Slideshow
I was at the church all day on Saturday for Camp Farthest Out. We were just hanging out and we went into a prayer meeting with a bunch of people. I got in the center of the group and I asked for healing. They began to pray with me and encourage me. Everything they said I had already heard. It wasn't anything new. I went back to my seat disappointed. I closed my eyes and I started picturing everything that I had gone through. Moments when I was going to spiritual warfare and was screaming, when my old pastor gave me $20 after threatening my family and said sorry, when my parents told me that they were going to get a divorce because of ministry. This slideshow just went through my mind over and over. It finally stopped and I heard God say to me that He was there with me, through it all. I didn't believe him. He then replayed the slideshow except in every picture it wasn't just me. God was holding me. In all of them. I grabbed me when I was screaming, he grabbed me when I was broken, he caught all my tears when I cried. I remember everything so vividly, except that I don't remember the hurt I can only remember God's loving arms. I literally can't remember anything else but that!!! Can this be possible? Every memory that I have that makes me who I am is completely wiped away. I do not remember!
