Living in the House that God built............

Okay...so I have a story for you.....

Somewhere along the way, I seemed to have lost touch with God. As much as that hurts to say, I admit it. BUT I am doing something about it.

I haven't gone to my church in awhile.....and it showed in my life. So, I have been going to The Healing Place on Wednesday's and Sunday's.....and man.....it feels good. I have been going by myself, and I am OK with that. It relaxes me. This past Sunday was amazing.

Pastor Dino was talking about getting distracted from God. Some people may get distracted for a day, a week, a month.....years. I am one of those people. And.....I have had quite the rocky past few years.....and I understand now. So, Pastor Dino...has everyone's head bowed....and he begins to ask everyone who feels like they have been distracted from God to raise their hand.

I DO NOT RAISE MY HAND IN CHURCH......so I didn't.

Something inside me knew it was the last time he was going to ask. And my hand FLEW up......I had no control over it.....it just flew up!!! It was amazing! Then....Pastor Dino asked for everyone who had raised their hand.....to come to the front....my worst nightmare! Yes....I know it's silly but I am deathly afraid of being in front of big groups of people. So....I get up out of my seat...and start working my way up towards the front of the church. My heart is racing at this point....my body keeps moving forward....I feel some resistance in me though...trying to get me to go back to my seat...but I kept moving forward. It was so powerful. Once I got there, there were people standing all around me.....receiving the same prayer that I was. About three quarters of the way through Pastor Dino's prayer.....I feel this massive hand on my back....trembling. And at that moment....I felt all my worry and doubt that I have been feeling leave my body.......this person was praying for me......really and truly....praying...I could feel it....could feel God working through this person I have never met....never even seen...my back was to him. Once the prayer was over.....I have never felt so refreshed in my life!!!!! I turned around....and there was a guy about my age, just looking at me. Kind of saying...."It's okay"......So he held out his hand, said his name was Michael.....

So.....thank you Michael for praying for me!!!!!!!
