So tonight, I had the confirmation of all confirmations. When I say that God is AMAZING, He truly is and His spirit moves uncontrollably. I woke up this morning and the first thing I did was go on youtube and watch a video of my school's liturgical dance team did. They danced to a song called "The Search" and the lyrics include the words, "I need Thee, Oh I need Thee. Every hour I need Thee. Where can I find You Jesus? Can I please touch those nail scarred hands..." As I watched the video I cried and this was from the MOMENT I woke up. I had a fairly light day and went to a meeting at Wake Eden and after that I went to the Youth Service at Bronx Bethany. When I tell you the message was a pure CONFIRMATION of what I've been asking of God... there's no other way to describe it. It touched on the hunger we have for Christ, how to get it, fasting & other things that just spoke directly to my spirit. As they did the altar call, they played "As The Deer" and I was certain that God had placed me in that moment and was speaking directly to me, answering what I have been asking of Him recently. I never went up to the altar that quickly and certain in my life. There was no sense of resistance, I was just spirit led. As I stood at the altar, I cried. I've been "saved" all of my life but in all of my years I have never experienced that moment in all of my life and I don't think I've ever heard God's voice in any greater clarity. I know that this is a point in my life where God is calling me to change and be totally His and as I'm at a battle with myself, I'm continually praying that my flesh be removed and His spirit take full control of my being. I'm brought to tears so quickly at the thought of His goodness and I feel Him working in ways that I've never felt before. I pray that my testimony can touch somebody and let them know that they're not alone in the battle between flesh and spirit... EVER. As I pray for everyone going through what I am, pray for me so that we might be able to commit ourselves to God and unite as a body in Christ. I encourage everyone to listen to this song, "Chasing After You" by Tye Tribbett so that we might know the attitude we NEED to have to fully dedicate our lives to Christ. The battle is not yours. It's the Lord's, so have faith & leave it in His hands.
