So I have been working on moving into my sisters house in a new area and have been here a few days getting used to everything and yesterday knew today was sunday I saw three churches in walking distances going on my walks and figured if I could sleep well and wake up in time go to church on sunday.
Granted I didn't that well but i did wake up pretty early so I got ready and headed out, the church I chose to go to is a small one with many elderly people and some younger people it's not fancy or anything but upon entering and meeting some people I learned that the church was going through some harsh times, several ppl in there lost loved ones and several people there also are going through very harsh times lots of medical issues visits to the hospital ect.
Everyone there despite this was very friendly and nice to me, I sat during the sermon the praise the communion but about half way through I felts something inside me. Before I go into that I want you all to know that everyday I tell God to use me I always let him know that I am willing that my heart my soul my will my blade is his to command and I think this is why what happened today happened.
You see upon the church service nearing it's end I walked up to the pastor to request doing something I have never done in my entire life and that is to speak to the church on the stage. I am shy and timid by nature never once have I ever spoken to a group of people with their eyes on me let alone simply by spontaneous calling for the holy spirit, and so I stood in front of them all and as you ll know I speak from my heart and God is the words. I knew the pain they were all feeling I could sense it all around me I told them how I more so than a lot of people know pain I know what sadness is I said I don't want to go into great detail but my life and my story is not a pretty one it's one of pain and sadness but then I said however it's because of all I went through that I can connect and understand those who have experienced the same things.
I went on saying the human body experiences pain but it's the inner wounds the inner scars the inner bleeding that is the hardest to heal and huts the most, I continued saying that it wasn't through the easy times and the times when I never experienced pain that I connected with God the most, it was in the times when I was in pain when I was alone in my tears that I clung to God the most that I felt him holding me the most that he and I grew the most, again I continued saying I have never lost a loved one before but I knew someone who did God the father. Him being the first parent knew that pain knowing that the deeper the love not the love that the human heart knows but the love that comes from God's heart alone the deeper the pain then went on saying Jesus knew more than any of us that love hurts and finished saying that it's going to hurt losing loved ones going through the hard times but know that it's in those times that God is with us the most.
I didn't expect any of this I had no idea that upon waking today I would end up going on stage allowing God to speak through me in a church I have never been to and speaking to people I never met before simply because my heart was willing God wanted to use me without thinking about it without fear or worry my body just acted before I knew what I was doing I was walking up to the pastor to request speaking to them. At the end of my speech the entire church applauded and I could that God did exactly what I desire deeply to do as a Christian I saw a spark made in all these peoples hearts something was there in that church in those peoples hearts that was not there before today a fire was ignited.
Some people came to me afterwards in tears telling how moved they were how wise I am even though I told them it wasn't my own wisdom and that it wasn't my words I spoke. Again I am simply astounded at God right now
