Well, I Had Another God Moment

It’s been a long, hard week. Tonight was a PERFECT way to wrap it all up. Let me explain.

Tonight after I got home from spending time with friends, April called me. She knows better than anyone when something is wrong, she can just read me like that. As I began to explain something to her, I broke down in way I haven’t in a few weeks. It’s only the second time ever that I can recall that I broke down like I did. The other was two weeks ago when God put the fire inside of me. Tonight, I wept. I began to explain something that made me uncomfortable tonight. Without going in to what made me uncomfortable, I explained to her how convicted I felt.

After explaining all that, I heard God speaking to me. He led me in some words with April that was powerful. It couldn’t have come at a more perfect time. I felt like I was emotionally at my peak. And at my peak, I couldn’t hold anything in any longer. I wept with April tonight. After the weeping, we got on our knees and poured it out straight to God and wept even more. It was one the most powerful prayers I have ever prayed. A prayer that came from the deepest part of my heart, so full of love, passion…and humility. Tonight I felt the presence of God. I was reminded of the night a few weeks ago when God simply embraced me and whispered “I’m right here with you.” It’s a feeling that is indescribable. When it feels that NO one else around us lifts our arms, we know that we can turn face-to-face with God and feel Him embracing us like NO one else can do.

Let me share some of my prayer…I pray that God continue to disturb me and make me uncomfortable. He has called me to lead April towards Him. I pray that we glorify Him through our love for one another, that we lead by example. I pray that over the next few weeks leading up to the wedding, that we not lose focus of Him, that it not be just about us, but that we point the way towards Christ.

Tonight I was made uncomfortable. Tonight I was disturbed by God. We were in the presence of God tonight. The coolest part of it all…I got to share the moment with April and we were in the presence of God together.
