Seeing and hearing from God

Have you have had an experience with the lord that was so incredible that after that precise moment you wished you were right back in that place. His spirit softly speaking and ministering to your every need. I stood before a creek with the sun brightly shining, the sound of flowing water perfectly in sync. It sounded like a melody from heaven and there at that place God was in the midst: walking along and telling me to give it all to him. When he comes it is in such a powerful way. I almost felt like I couldn't stand. I almost lost all feeling and I started to feel increasingly numb. But it was an amazing feeling, it was amazing freedom. Standing before him willing and ready. Ok Lord, it's taken some time, but I'm here.! I'm where I'm supposed to be. When we seek after him fully, it's indescribable of how he touches us. I can't even explain the feelings and emotions that were escalating throughout my being. I am experiencing him doing a mini-surgery within my heart. I could feel the knots as they began to loosen. The chains that were once bounded have been lifted. I used to feel like I lived under a grey cloud, that would never leave . It felt like I was being suffocated and couldn't breathe. This was the darkest time of my life, wanting to be free of bondage, yet not willing to let God in. we can be as resist as we want, but there came a time when no longer could I resist. Now I live day and day by his grace. With a little resistance being shed off everyday. Being free in him is so liberating. Letting Go and letting God --wow! I had this experience and I pray that I continue to let go of myself and allow him to work through me. I am so thankful for his grace and love and that I don't have to live in that state again. I'm now living in an attitude of gratitude. I pray all of us would allow him to do his work and be free in him!

I would like to thank you for your courage to be vulnerable before your audience. It is truly wonderful to experience still moments with the Lord and to hear his small voice so that He can help us to see things more clearly.
I commend you on taking the initiative to follow your passion to write. I pray that the Lord will bless many hearts as they view your transparent expressions.
I love you, kiddo.
