When God Touches You, You Know You've Been Touched

This is a true Spiritual Awakening that I experienced in my mid twenties. I believe, I have faith because God touched me...

                   There was a time in my life
                      I  was filled with despair
                         No love, dislike, hate
                            permeated the air
                                 all was lost
                                     in this
                                  hopeless
                                      state
                                          I
                                     fell to 
                                 my knees
                                  shamed
                                     and
                                 disgraced
                             eyes shut tight  
                            praying to God
                          with all my might
                        darkness engulfed
                      every pore in my soul
                     fear clutched my heart
                 I thought the Devil had won
                no more to win, this was the
                ultimate loss or so I thought...


           God touched me, sending lightning
            bolts...momentarily fear gripped my
               heart, afraid to open either eye
              knowing now was my time to die
             God didn't need to say a word
          He filled my body with spiritual burns
    from the top of my head to the tip of my toes
              he rid me of self pity and loathe
         I opened my eyes ...feeling oh so free
       light as a feather, refreshed and reborn
     my body glowed with the Holy Spirits light


    From that moment on my life had changed
    Lucifer's evil cannot keep me bound in chains
    I still make mistakes and life is not always great
    but faith and hope are never far away 
    I know now God holds me in his hands
    He loves me unconditional with no demands
    He forgives me when no one else can
    He's my best friend...Amen...Amen!

give praise to god..he devinely tunes us

Amen and Amen!Z~ God is within, but before He stokes that spirit in us we are dead. When we get the call,and answer yes He is alive within us , and never leaves nor forsakes us ever. It is we who may shut him out at times,for He allows free choice, but He never does. If only all would know this glorious feeling of security and grace. I'm so glad you do!
