     I received a note from a (male) Christian friend back in the summer of 2010. In the moment of reading his letter...I was endowed by the Holy Spirit...and this is the joy of the testimony I shared with him.

This is for the story and a testimony...of being Touched by the Holy Spirit. I share it with all my brothers and sisters in Christ, for the Joy of the Lord...as the Spirit speaks.

HE TOUCHED ME

A Letter to my brother-in-Christ

Thank you to my ‘Brother-in-Christ’, for inquiring of the Spirit of the Lord...within my heart...and for your testimony of being "touched" (by my words of Praise).  I'm a joyful witness for Christ...to answer your question…(“Are you a Pastor”?)  And in my writing/speaking, I am filled with testimonies of being "Born Again & Free"...living in the Light of God's unconditional Love and daily renewing of the mind and depth of our spirit...which is the 'Heart'.  My heart is "touched"...with your words.  Now imagine how much it Pleases God…For He is Touched as well...when we are pleasing unto Him.  For us to commune with one another...according to His Will...like we are doing so now...builds strength and togetherness, courage and faith, peace and a God-willing Spirit...in ourselves and our fellow sisters and brothers in Christ. 

We are Christians...and we are no longer living for ourselves...but for the joy and blessings and (sharing of blessings) love of Jesus Christ.  For He so loves us...that He has given us Life-Anew...and to be "joint-heirs" in the Kingdom of God.  Praise the Lord, for His Amazing Grace, and Life-sustaining Word!  I feel the Holy Spirit rising with every word God brings to my (and our) testimonies of His Touch.  I'm reminded by God in every one of His awakening "touches" in my experience of living a Christian Life.  In the moment of an awakening, the Holy Spirit quickens you and me (to read...to seek...to knock...to ask {pray})… and the Word of God is fulfilled. 

The Holy Spirit awakes us to the 'Beatitudes' of life.  It reminds us of the almighty, powerful and abundance of 'New Life'__ there is in Christ.  What a blessing to have real Joy, real Peace, real Happiness, New Beginnings, Ever-Increasing Faith, Knowledge and Wisdom.  For His Wonders never cease!  Let’s continue to be a blessing, sharing with the world…the Wonder of God…and let this always be our daily inspiration.  Rejoice! 

~ Life & Love-in-Christ Forever~God Bless you, In Agape, Blackbutterfly
