Tell me one time
Ok guys. Normally I don’t get many comments, but I thought this would be fun.
Tell me one time you felt an amazing interjection by God. One time you just couldn’t help but get a little emotional because you knew He was there. Go.

I was going through a rough time in high school and left my mother's house with the thought that i wasn't going back for a very long time…had nowhere to go…and I pulled over on the side of the interstate in the rain and cried like a 4 year old girl. I don't think i had ever felt more comforted and alive than in that moment….God was in the passenger seat crying with me.

A little emotional is a drastic understatement, but I feel God's presence every time I step into our church back home. It's one of those feelings where I can hardly sing because I'm fighting back the tears. Ever heard someone sing while they're crying? Let's just say it's a good thing I'm not the one leading worship back home. God is amazing and does amazing things every Sunday at Maryland Community Church. I've been in many churches, but I have never felt such a strong presence in another place. Can't wait to get back home!!

i was suffering from post-partum depression after my 1st child was born. it was pretty intense. i didnt want to look at her. hold her. feed her. nothing. i didnt even want her. i hid these emotions for nearly 3 weeks.
finally, late one night, i let it all out. my husband prayed over me, my in laws called me on the phone, read a ton of the Word to me and prayed with us right then. i was a bawling mess. they all recommended i try to eat. my husband was making me a sandwich and i was in bed holding my 18 day old little girl. i took a deep breath and looked down at her, expecting to have this wave of fear and anxiety, but instead i fell head over heels in love with her. she was the most beautiful thing i had ever seen. ever. and…she smiled. 18 days old – and she smiled. im convinced to this day that was the Lord. totally smiling through her and comforting me, showing me the beauty of life.
i know a lot of my struggle then was due to not having dealt with my abortions. and God revealed that night the little baby i was holding was His gift to me…now LOVE her!
i'll never forget that moment!

Don't talk about this very much, but the night Matt was threatening me and forced me to call Jen, who I had called for help, and tell her that all was fine and not to come. He was so enraged, but once I pacified him and laid down he passed out so quickly AND didn't wake up when I slipped out, or while I sat in his driveway an hour waiting for Jen to get there. My car was there but I was unable to drive so I had to stay there and wait so she could drive it (and a friend of hers would drive her car). I just kept thinking if he comes out I don't know what will happen. I was so scared, I don't even know if I prayed but after I was safely on the way home I felt a huge sigh of relief and I knew that God had been there, protecting me every step. I honestly don't know what would have happened.

I know the feeling, my wife and I attend Maryland Community Church on Sunday nights and is definitely reaching people and moving in ways that I've never seen. There are many times there where I just don't want to leave I can definitely feel the presence of God. It is amazing feeling to see God working through a great group of people.

What an awesome story….PPD is intense…I have friends whose mothers have experienced that and it is a scary thing from what I hear. So glad He broke you of it and taught you from it!

I think its awesome that you have a church community like that. I was hurt really badly by the church i went to for 5 years, and that has seriously scarred my view of the church. i've been going to this amazing bible study full of hippies though…been pretty interesting
