Re: Some of you have brought up some excellent concerns
That is funny. There is no need to worry as I fixed it just now by clicking on "Alert Good Message" on your post. LOL, that way the moderators will see that it was an error. I don't really think that I had to do that though as there was probably a good reason behind it that we will never understand in this life.
I am glad you enjoyed my story. I should maybe have included in my story that this happened to me at a time when I was in a major personal crisis. I had no where to turn to but God. Many people would have committed suicide or at the least became suicidal in a crisis like this because there was no hope for me by worldly standards. No one wants to go through the terrible pain of times like this, but today I would not trade that experience for anything. It was during this time that my faith was built. It was during this time that my spiritual roots grew. It was during this time that God proved to me that He was real. I saw one little miracle after another in my life. He was actually loving me and caring for me as I could not care for myself. A great deal of my worry left as I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that I had a Heavenly Father watching over me. This did not happen by accident. This happened because I turned to God for help. Several days before the incident at the church with the lady who was starring at me, I was spending every minute that I could of my time in prayer. I was basically praying all day for several days. I was also fasting every meal that I could tolerant. I was not on any long fast, but I was doing the best that I could. I was doing my best to seek God with my all. I believe that this is an example of taking the kingdom of God by force in my life, as the Bible says, "the violent take it by force." I have learned that when God sees that kind of effort put forth in seeking Him, He will show Himself strong. Sending the lady to minister to me was part of that. I don't think she would have been there if I had not been seeking God as violently as I was.
