More Than a Feeling
It happened again today. I felt it.
I was talking to Mariah on the phone earlier tonight, and I was starting to tell her about my experience yesterday. Her first reaction seemed to be bewilderment at the fact that I went to a Mormon church. My feeling was that I wasn't there for a particular denomination or to be converted, but because something urged me to go to church. Then I started telling her about Matthew 11:28-30. As I was explaining it to her, she went to grab her Bible so she could see it, and by mistake, she read Matthew 10:28-30.
And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather, be afraid of the one who can destroy both soul and body in Gehenna. Are not two sparrows sold for a small coin? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father's knowledge. Even all the hairs of your head are counted.
(Matthew 10:28-30)
I told her that wasn't the one from the sermon, but then she said, "Wow, that definitely applies to you!" When I thought about it a little later on, I suddenly felt like I had been punched in the chest, but I couldn't see where it had come from. And I didn't feel any pain from it, yet I felt the impact.
I think I may be getting closer to what He is trying to say to me....
