Being used by God
My relationship with God has been steadily growing since moving to Florida, which is a GREAT thing. Last night something happened and it really is still not understood by me all the way because I have never experienced something so powerful. Chris and I were in bed, around 12:30 I had this overwhelming feeling, I can't really explain if it was sadness, pain, anger or what. I just felt the need to cry and I was becoming very uncomfortable. Chris said "you know you need to start praying, in your prayer language." I am still not so sure about tongues, especially because I have only a few words. I was hesitant until the feeling became so overwhelming I did just start praying in tongues. I was praying and was so in touch with just God and this feeling. All of the sudden more words came to me, words I have never heard. I started praying those words with the other and the overwhelming feeling started to leave me. Chris held my hand the entire time I was praying and was praying for me to be able to receive more words, right when he asked this of God I was given more words. All I can say is it was an amazing moment, I hope whomever was needing prayer got it and feels better. Now I feel addicted and can't wait for God to use me again. I have always been very emotional especially when it comes to God and now I think I know why. I don't like feeling uneasy but once God starts using me, there is nothing I would rather be doing. After everything was over Chris and I went to sleep but were awakened with a call around 1:00am, it ended up being a wrong number but after having that feeling something was wrong it was scary to be awakened so fast that late. Anyway I just wanted to share this because it was amazing, and if it was any of you needing the prayer I hope you feel better. I know if probably was for someone I don't even know, which is even more amazing. I can't wait to be used by God in this way again.
